Pasta Salad

Pasta Salad

1 box of Rotini noodles
1 can of olives
2 Cucumbers
2 Tomatoes
1 bottle Italian salad dressing
1/3 - 1/2 bottle Salad Supreme

Make the noodles according to box. Drain and rinse in cold water or otherwise they will stick together. Dump everything in a bowl and stir. You might not use all the dressing, but close. Refrigerate and serve. Stir before serving.

Soak your fruit in vinegar


Stays fresher longer, gets all the crud off, and doesn't leave a funny taste.

The story behind the name of our blog…



This tagline started back when my husband, Aaron, and I were first dating. We were with a friend trying to get to another friend’s wedding in Provo Canyon. We got lost and more lost and were driving around Provo trying to find it when our friend called out, “Adventures in Provo” in a funny voice. Ever since then whenever things get crazy, or we get lost, or we’re in a new place we both call out, “Adventures with Camping, Adventures in San Francisco, or Adventures out Grocery Shopping” (I’m sure ya get the idea). When Aaron and I were in San Francisco, at the Musee Mecanique, the old museum with vintage games and displays, we had this key chain made (kind of hard to see, but as you can tell I definitely love San Francisco). The point is: life is an adventure and the best thing about ours is having each other. Our next big adventure comes this September when it will be Aaron and my five year anniversary and we go to the UK and Ireland! Stay tuned!
