Mosaic Monday ~Hello August

Today for Mosaic Monday I'm sharing a few hydrangeas growing in my yard. I love the blue and am thankful my soil keeps them that way :-) I love pink in most other flowers, but blue hydrangeas are close if not at the top of my gardening faves. Go check out all of the other mosaics at Little Red House HERE.


I was inspired by my friend Debbie at Mountain Breaths to try these yummy lemon blueberry biscuits. Check out the recipe at her blog! This was another excuse to use my new pretty blue plates :-)



Tonight with dinner I tried a new little recipe that was pretty tasty. Kind of like Eggplant Parmesan without the breading. Those are green beans from my garden cooked with the potatoes.

Grilled Eggplant Parmesan From EverydayCook.com (4 main dish servings) Ingredients 1 large eggplant, sliced lengthwise into 4 slices 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, sliced 2 medium tomatoes, sliced into 4 slices each 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil Directions Lightly brush eggplant slices with oil; season with salt and pepper. Place slices on grill over medium heat; grill for 8 to 10 minutes or until tender, turn once. While the eggplant is grilling, prepare cheese. In a small bowl, combine mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese and fresh basil. Top each eggplant slice with tomato slices and cheese mixture. Cover grill and cook 2 minutes, until the cheese melts and the tomato is warm.

Hope everybody's Monday is a good one!
