I whipped up some bread dough, and worked my muscles kneading it for a long 10 minutes.

Once Christopher was home from work we spent time visiting in the yard before getting started on dinner. We made a baked scallop dish with white wine, garlic, panko crumbs and lemon juice.

For dessert we cut into the easy frozen cheesecake that I made this morning.
A little trash TV to end the evening off, and I have to say that today was a pretty nice start to the week. We are looking forward to trying new recipes, having a picnic, having guests over, and attending two nieces' birthday parties this week!
How was your Monday? What are you looking forward to this week?
