Hiya!
Actually, I don’t know what I think about saying “hiya.” It didn’t really feel like me. And it’s not like I even needed to open with saying hi or hiya or hello or what up or hey dude or grüezi or whatever. I guess it’s because I’m in Arkansas right now, at a different work station (the pool, woooooe is me), with a different coffee mug (orange!) and hair so wavy it looks like I touched a lightning bolt to my tongue while standing in a foot of water.
I guess it’s just the way my life was meant to unfold.
Lion girl. THAT IS WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO CALL ME.
Okay so yeah, I’ll keep this short because it’s Friday and I have a 2-inch splinter in my thigh that’s starting to turn purple and I probably need to cut off my leg real quick. Yaaay!
In the meantime, I have some super duper gooey ooey orzo with gruyere cheese, tomatoes and zucchini fer ya.
AND, an almond-crusted tilapia salad mish mash thingy that’s pretty pimp if I have anything to do with anything.
It also has tomatoes and zucchini in it, WEIRD.
Okay so where’s that chainsaw…..





Oh, Bev, you never fail to wow me!! This is stunning!
The gruyere knocks it out of the park for me!!
I want, want, want this! My folks live in Arkansas, and whoa is it ever hot there! Stay cool by the pool & don’t worry about your hair, you are gorgeous!
Hope you are having a blast!!
um ouch, hate splinters!
i’m kind of jealous you’re in Arkansas! that’s where my hubby’s family is from (LR) and it’s GORGEOUS there even if it is crazy hot. although a pool makes it better…obvi
2 GREAT recipes in one post. You are the greatest!
totally jealous of the pool time, even if it’s in a hot-as-hades Arkansas summer. i remember moving into my dorm in the Arkansas August time. sweat city.
Yup, I would like both of those dishes in my mouth right now.
Look at that gorgeous tilapia crust!
I am simply amazed each time I see a photo of your absolutely gorgeous food, Bev!
The tilapia looks killer. Nice work.
Going to have to try the Orzo Salad and the topping for the fish very soon. Looks delicious!
All you have to say is ooey gooey and I’m in!
One of my favorite dishes is Orzo with zucchini and tomatoes. The gruyere just takes it over the top! Yummo!
Gorgeous! I love anything with zucchini in the summer! Have a great trip!
Oooooh girl, these look good. Hope you had a fun trip!!
I’m new to your site, you’ve got so great stuff on here, nice photos.
I made almost the same dish 2 weeks ago, but with feta! Yum!
The link on the tablespoon site for the orzo recipe is broken. Can you email it to me? We made it last week and it was fantastic! Trying to make it again now and guess I’m going to have to do my best from memory! Thanks!
