A Special Garden

This reminds me of RS but could be used for anything.

A Special Garden

Plant three rows of Peas:

Peace of mind

Peace of heart

Peace of soul

Plant four rows of squash:

Squash gossip

Squash indifference

Squash grumbling

Squash selfishness

Plant four rows of lettuce:

Lettuce be faithful

Lettuce be kind

Lettuce be obedient

Lettuce really love one another

No garden without turnips:

Turnip for meetings

Turnip for service

Turnip to help one another

Water freely with patience and cultivate with love.Remember, you reap what you sow!

Don't forget that every garden must have thyme:

Thyme for love

Thyme for hope

Thyme for joy

Kielbasa Chili

Ingredients:

2 Tb olive oil
1 lb. smoked kielbasa sausage, cut into 1/2 inch slices (I used turkey and it tasted fine, but less fat)
2 cans diced tomatoes, undrained.
1 can chili with beans
1 can black beans, drained
1 can corn, drained
1 can sliced olives, drained.

Directions:

Brown sausage in oil. Add all other ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 8-10 minutes or until heated through.

Add cheese or sour cream on top to taste if desired!

Jumping The Gun.

I know Ava has another month and 3 days, but you can't deny she is cute! Sorry it's sideways.

Looking so grown up in the picture above.

Say No To Ponyo!

Gracie and I went out for her special day today. She picks what we do and she decided she wanted to go to the "movies at the mall" and see Ponyo! WHY didn't somebody tell me it was Japanese animation? It was a really bizarre show. I thought it was going to be like Nemo's long lost cousin or something---not a chance. So please unless you like cheap animation and a really weird plot don't go see this movie.
