Hey Everyone!
I hope you are having a fabulous weekend. I enjoyed all of your lovely suggestions on how to use up all the spinach. Popeye was onto something; spinach can be great! A few of my favorite uses…
Warm Strawberry Bacon Orzo Salad served up with a yummy turkey burger.
If you don’t think you like spinach, try it with bacon. You might just change your mind 
Dark mixed green + extra spinach + strawberries + baby yellow tomatoes + red onion + goat cheese + chicken. Super simple yet extremely tasty. A light drizzle of balsamic + olive oil + seasonings was added post photo op.
Other ways I enjoyed eating spinach: Green smoothies, with hot pasta, sautéed. I really can’t remember all the ways I used it!
Onto more important matters (spinach isn’t the most important thing in life? what?). Prom was last night.
I have a general policy of avoiding school dances. I haven’t been to one since homecoming freshmen year (I’m a Junior now). I’m really not sure; they just aren’t really my thing. I considered skipping out on prom. But, did I really want to sit at home alone while all my friends were at prom? Or watch all my friends upload pictures onto Facebook and not be tagged in any of them? Umm, heck no! I didn’t want to miss out on the festivities!
And you know what I realized? If you’re being crazy and having a good time, no one even notices your dancing skills…or lack thereof
Have you every been to prom? Do you like dances?
All of those spinach dishes look awesome!!!
So glad you had a great time at prom!!
All the spinach dishes look delicious! I’m glad you found some tasty ways to use it
). I’m positive I’m going next year though – can’t miss senior prom! 
I didn’t go to prom because none of my friends were going, but I like going to dances (at least the getting ready part
I’m really glad you enjoyed prom, girlie!! You look absolutely gorgeous!!! I love your dress and the way your hair is done…. oh and your corsage is sooo pretty !!
<3
You looks gorgeous! That color is so pretty….it reminds me of summer! I like how all you and your friends wore long dresses! No one does that at my school…but I think long dresses for prom are beautiful!
You look SO PRETTY!!! I love that color. It looks amazing on you!! I always went to prom
I thought it was so fun!
oh girl you look stunning!!!!!
You look so pretty, Ann Claire! I love your dress – purple looks great on you!
I’ve never been to prom before (I’m only a freshman!) but I’ve never been too fond of school dances. I’m a terrible dancer, so I only go to have a good time with my friends and goof-around!
Glad you had a great time!
Omg you look gorgeous! What a beautiful prom dress. My prom feels like so long ago! eek
I made that spinach orzo salad a couple of days ago and I agree..the bacon was killer!
Unfortunately, no one else liked it ): “Too much goat cheese”. They’re just crazy.
Too much goat cheese? Impossible!
soooo beautiful! Purple is a FABULOUS color for you!! <3
My fav ways to use up spinach are to toss em in smoothies, sautee it with garlic and mushrooms, or make a giant salad like yours with lots of feta and craisins =) delish!!! that salad is calling my naaaame! <3
So nice to "meet" you!!! =)
Sweetie! I totally love your dress…you look beautiful!
AWWWHHHH! You are so GORGEOUS girl!!!
My Prom is next month (May 14th!).
I’m so excited! 
You looked beautiful! I’m glad I went to prom. I didn’t have a date, so I brought one of my co-workers and it was so fun!
I love your dress! You look amazing
Hope you had a blast! I went to prom my junior & senior years of high school and I had so much fun! You’ll remember times like these forever!

OMG your dress is so gorgeous, you look absolutely BEAUTIFUL girl!! Work it girl, work it;) Hope you had a blast! prom=awesome!
you look beautiful!
Our prom was a little different; my graduating class was just 130 people (private school!) and it was not a date dance; it was just for our class. It was fun but I kind of wish I’d had a “normal” prom experience too 
I liked dances sometimes… depended on who i went with. kind of fun to dance a bit and i LOVE getting all dressed up!!! I miss that about school dances
Thanks! I go to private school too! There’s 160-170 or so in my grade. But, it’s a junior/senior prom so combined there’s quite a few of us so it’s a pretty traditional prom. Getting dressed up is the best
Aww! So glad you decided to go! I’m totally the same way about dances. Eekkk! But then its like” gosh, i hate watching them have all the fun!”
But then again dancing really ain’t my cup of tea! I should probably just stay away from them!!
