Storm Warning

We have been reading books to each other, he reads a chapter, I read one, back and forth.  It's an enjoyable treat for the both of us.

This is our latest choice - Storm Warning - by Billy Graham.  I suppose there are very few authors I "trust" to write something truthful, worth reading, and based on a good foundation of the understanding of the bible - and this  man is one of them.

Check it out, find a friend, and read it together...we are on chapter three and intrigued, interested, and ready for the ride...as he shares his take on what's happening in our stormy world around us.

Sweet Potato Tacos

I love veggie tacos and these are loaded!

Honey-lime sweet potato, black bean and corn tacos - with lots of spices!

You can see the recipe by clicking here.

Adding avocado, salsa and other toppings make these tacos even better - and use fresh tortillas too!

The Best Pasta Supper

This was the BEST pasta supper we've had - maybe ever.  The recipe is from Pinterest for the pasta - and the olives and tomatoes make it super tasty.  For the zucchini, I just sliced it and fried it in olive oil (seasoned it first), and added the crust from some multigrain bread we had that was a bit dry.  I sliced off the crust and cut into pieces, added butter to the zucchini and browned both.
