I am still here!

I haven't been around for a while, and I am sorry! Two months ago we went on a road trip out east all the way to PEI!!! The fulfillment of a life long dream. While we were at the beach out camera slipped into the waters and drowned! Wouldn't it be so romantic to drown? As Anne of Green Gables would say.
amazingly enough we were able to save all our pictures that were on a memo card!

We still don't have a camera, and I feel kind of handicapped having this blog and no camera. I know I love seeing pictures that people have taken themselves rather than pulling them from the internet, though they have some great pics on there.

Creative Juice is not limited to just interior decorating stuff, But I also planned on posting inspiring recipes I have tried and have found inspiring.

Let me direct you to my favorite web site for recipes.

I have discovered a recipe for Pasta Primavera Sauce and it was AMAZING!


As a side note, if you want to add meat, it tastes great with meatballs! Oh btw, if it tastes too tomatoish for you just add a bit more salt.
