Spring Lemon Pasta #SundaySupper

The first day of spring was March 20th and I’m so excited! Goodbye freezing rain of winter and welcome sunshine! I’m so excited that Daylight Savings is in full- effect; that outside workouts are bearable again; that flowers will be in bloom soon and charity season is in full swing (there are lots of yummy foodie-charity events going on right now).

  1. All the fresh herbs just shout warmer weather! Now I’m just hoping it arrives here soon. This looks like one delicious pasta dish!

  2. Our daylight savings time happens this weekend, can’t wait! I always love the ability to go out for a evening walk and there still is light outside, gives me more energy. And more energy is a must with two kiddos to keep up with. Love how simple this recipe is to throw together.

  3. What a great recipe! Thanks for submitting to YG – if you submit on Sunday morning for Sunday Supper I will promote on social media with same tag that day!
