If I ever move somewhere else in the United States, it might be to California. Lately I’ve been taking into consideration the days after i used to reside in Hermosa Seaside The weather was indescribably gorgeous. The neon pink and orange sunsets were incredible. The wines were bold and native. The hiking paths were gruesome (in a good way).

Each year these recollections come up as we approach cooler temperatures. I could already feel it happening and I’m just not ready yet. How about you?

Another thing We specifically remember on the subject of my amount of time in California, may be the usually refreshing and flavorful salmon. We probably had it at least once a week. Usually we opted for a lemon and dill flavor combo, but sometimes we’d blend it up and do teriyaki or dark brown sugar honey variations.

This time I needed to accomplish a a thing that was both sweet, tangy and spicy all at exactly the same time.

Honey = nice.

Lime = tangy.

Sriracha = spicy.

I love that I have already been able to order all of my groceries off Peapod because it’s very simple. They also have an extremely great cellular app you could download for free and shop from if you’re on the go; check it out!

It’s funny, but I always consider salmon to become some luxury dish nevertheless, you that it’s among the easiest dinners you may make. Just marinade, bake (or barbeque grill), and serve. And trust me, once you flavor those cucumber noodles, you’ll want to consume them every single day.
