Grillin Tuna

The other night my hubby and I grilled some Tuna steaks (from super Target) and topped them with an amazing mango/pineapple salsa!

(Recipe by: Bobby Flay) We also grilled some fresh asparagus that were seasoned with salt and pepper and a little bit of olive oil…. Then we also grilled some Yams that I brushed with butter and brown sugar. Plus we also had a spinach salad with fresh pears, candied almonds and craisins with a raspberry vinaigrette. Deeeelish!
Our dog loves it when we grill too! We always give her a little treat of whatever we grill up.

Just a simple evening with my guy 🙂
Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!

  • We have the same plates, and my whole family thinks that anything from ramen noodles to gourmet looks fabulous on them. You? thanks for sharing.

  • Girl!

    I need you to come over to my house! If I whipped out a meal that made such a pretty presentation like that, my husband would think that he had walked into the wrong house!

    Maybe we will all just show up at your house at dinner time...easier than getting my kitchen all messy, only to burn the food! Got room for 5 more?

    See ya about 6:00, okay?

  • Love the post! I cant believe you have those gorgeous flowers in bloom already! We woke up to snow AGAIN this morning!!!!!!
