Things I Love

I thought I would take a break from studying and share a couple things I'm really loving this week:

(1) The Outlander book series by Diana Gabaldon.  It is AMAZING.  It is a seven book series and I have read the first three in less than two months.  While in law school.  While studying for final exams.  While studying for the bar exam.  That is how amazing this book series is.  And the books are each a thousand plus pages.  Any who.  I absolutely cannot start another book until after the bar exam.  My ability to pass depends on it.  So I thought I would share this wonderful series with you.  The plot is really hard to describe.  Here is what wikipedia has to say about it.  It is sort of a romance/historical/science fiction book.  Kind of a Twilight on steroids.

(2) I made the most delicious salad this week.  It was surprisingly yummy and refreshing. Perfect for a hot summer day.

1 bag of Spinach
3 cups of cubed watermelon
1/2 pint of blue berries
1/2 cup of feta cheese
a few slices of red onion
Any brand of citrus vinaigrette salad dressing (I used Newman's Own Lime Vinaigrette)

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and top with the salad dressing.  Super easy and really tasty.

*In order to convert this into an actual meal I marinated chicken in the salad dressing and then grilled it and added it to the salad.  Enjoy!
