Simple Pleasures #29
I love the Atlanta Botanical Gardens and for my birthday my daughter, Cary, my son-in-law, and grandchildren gave me a membership.
They knew I was looking for a place to walk that is safe and beautiful.
It is less than 20 minutes from me and I can go as often as I like.
When you walk into the orchid house it is like walking into a tropical paradise.
Although it was a beautiful warm day when I went on Wednesday it is a place that brings summer into your life no matter the weather outside.
I really needed the walk there this week because I have been feeling anything but simple and serene.
With everything that is going on in the world and the continuing pandemic, I have just wanted to stay in my safe apartment.
I was so glad that I was able to work through the anxiety and make myself get out.
Listening to the sounds of the tropical frogs and walking along the paths definitely eased my troubled soul.
By the time I left, I was feeling much calmer.

Instant Pot Recipe Of The Week
Spring is coming and that means it is time to spring clean my freezer.
I found some chicken thighs that I need to thaw out and cook so I want an easy Instant Pot recipe.
This chicken thighs recipe sounds perfect to me because it cooks the chicken and rice in one pot.
It promises that the chicken will fall off the bone and the rice will be buttery, tender, and fluffy.
Gluten-Free Recipe Of The Week
For some reason when I think of lemon cookies I think of spring.
These gluten-free crinkle lemon cookies sound delicious.
Along with a bright lemon flavor they also have a beautiful crackly sugar top.
I think these would be perfect on a warm spring afternoon with a glass of iced tea.
