This is usually a summertime recipe, but it's the right colors for this Valentines Day weekend, and again, it's that good. The best part - it's easy to make.

Free Stuff
Part of me getting into blogging has to be about me being a part of the blogging community, rather than me just talking about myself all the time. I want my blog to be fun, interesting and hopefully useful. FREE Stuff is always useful, so I thought I'd share this $100 Swim Spot Gift Certificate give-away from The Ultimate Gift Guide Blog today :) All you have to do to be entered is visit her blog, check out swimspot.com, & leave a comment about which swimsuit you would buy with your gift certificate. Easy enough.
SwimSpot.com features about 11 designer brands, and has a neat suit builder feature that lets you match tops and bottoms until you've found the swimsuit.
If I were to win this prize (and I really hope I do....with my recent move, my budget doesn't really have room for the perfect $97 swimsuit) this is what I would buy:
I love the neckline. Its classic with an elegant style that I love, but rarely get to take to the pool. I'm not a mom, so I don't feel the need to always be covered up, but this is perfect for early summer, or fall when its not quite warm or sunny enough to be working on my tan.
