Day 6 ~ From a Distance

Day 6- From a Distance

Carbonear Island  is located at the mouth of Carbonear harbour.During the Battle of Carbonear (1697) the abandoned town was burned, but the residents were successful in defending the island from capture thanks to fortifications they had erected with their own funds, the earth works walls of which are still evident. It continued to be an important refuge for settlers in the region during subsequent attacks from the French and later by American privateers until the early 19th century.Carbonear Islands military importance was recognized in 1954 when it was designated a site of national significance and in 1981 it was officially declared a national historic site of Canada. The first of a series of excavations began on the island in 2010 to learn more about its role in protecting English North America, and approximately 1300 artifacts were found in the first summer's dig.

Day 5 ~ What I Ate

Day 5 ~ What I Ate

So I'm not that great at cooking. I'd go as far as to say I'd starve if it wasn't for hubby. But I can make some basic meals and macaroni & cheese is one of them. So for supper tonight it's Mac & Cheese.

 MACARONI & CHEESE

3 cups macaroni ,  bread crumbs ( maybe a cup or less) , garlic powder, onion powder or flakes, 1/2 cup evaporated milk, and grated cheese ( I used 2 fistfuls).

Pour cooked macaroni into a greased dish. Sprinkle with bread crumbs add garlic & onion. Stir. Then add milk and cheese; Stir. Top with grated cheese. Baked for 15- 20 mins.

Dessert

And dessert is a Banana Bread courtesy of my neighbour Shirley. Very yummy!!!

Day 4~ Favourite Colour

My new favourite colour is this rich brown shade which I recently painted my kitchen. It's called Cotton Plant and it reminds me of milk chocolate. What's your favourite colour?
