Mama Mia That's some Spicy, No! Its Spaghetti Squash

One of my favorite food is the spaghetti squash and all its family. It is so
delightful with sweet stewed tomato's,  This healthy replacement for noodles
is a grand idea.  It also has just the right amount of crunch for those who like
a crunch with their bites.
Mama was always a very good cook. She spent lots of time in the kitchen making
homemade meals from scratch. It seemed, as if forever, since she used a gas stove
and oven. She would always make it with noodles , meatballs, fresh basil leaves
and olives. A true Italian meal even if we  were not Italian . It is the heart and soul
of a meal that makes it so wonderful.
I enjoy lots of vegetables, So to make this with spaghetti squash  was a very big treat
for me.  Of course if your not one for this type of vegetable then by all means eat
the regular spaghetti noodles.
It does not fill you up so much and leaves a nice taste on your tongue. The added garlic
bread will make a perfect match. So maybe you will try it this way for a new treat
on your dinner table. Trying new things is a very good thing and your children can
experience a new taste, I would definitely grow a few in the garden to make this meal
a A+.
Good eats till the morrow, Now go enjoy your spaghetti squash dinner

The Amazing Tater Chip

The good ole plain potato chip.
 I found it quite cute and funny
that anyone can make this
homemade treat, look like a delicacy.
All you have to do is put
these chips in a fancy dish with some special spicy sauce and voila
now you have an appetizer.
Of course I never really
understand why so many people
get an appetizer before a meal.
Even a salad seems to be a bit
much before a meal anymore.
This delightful treat is full of calories.
Full of saturated fats and very salty.  Yet we think, well its a fancy chip yes?
Then yet ,you still order your salad, before dinner as well.

So while dipping is small and yummy, the price not only lands on  your hips
but your heart.  This delightful dish as yummy as it  tastes, might be well to each of
us, if your table has more than 4 people,  Then you all could have just a small
taste.
Serving sizes in restaurants are more than 2 cups of salad before the meal.
So my suggestion is to half the salad.

Food is such a wonderful gift to us, it is up to us to eat it wisely.
So make your next meal enjoyable, delightful and less, your tummy
will still be happy.

Good Eats till the morrow :D


                                                                                         

Sending Love

It is nice to just find an unexpected heart where ever I seem to go. This pretty red leaf had fallen on the hood of the car. Is this a small sign from God above that he is sending a temporal heart to lil ole me? I would like to think so.

It seems that while I am out and about doing something I come across a heart. I think those are the best kind, the one's you are not looking for ,and they just appear. 

Whether  you believe in the God above or not , it always puts a 

big smile  across your face, followed by the big "WOW" look

what I just found. Maybe a special angel assigned to grab hearts for the day and send them to people. 

Short but sweet a heart is always a sign of love. It can take you 

out of a sad place and always make it better. As for me I will

continue not looking for a heart, I like just finding them from

nowhere, where ever I happen to be at.

May you find a heart and smile and share it with someone else.

Till the morrow, many blessings.

Proverbs 8:17    I love those who love me and those who diligently 

find me.

1 John 4:19 
We love each other because he loved us first.

Funday

Sometimes I really think that I was born into the wrong era. All
of theses amazing colors of hair and fashion are right up my
alley. But who says I cannot enjoy them just the same no matter
what. So I do. 
I know that there are many colors to choose from. I feel like a
child in a candy store. This is so exciting.  My favorite color
is BLUE. But then the teal or aqua is right beside me also.
An oober amount of decision making. 
I have looked into many wigs and have compiled quite a 
few choices. These are from Japan. They have great prices
and all are from the Cosplay type which are really cool.
So here is me with Blue hair and few other wigs that I plan
to buy in the near future.
Lets see you in  blue hair fashion, and lets move the world.

Till the morrow;   Blue is awesome

this has both aqua & blue which is adorable

such a cute style

Love the 3 tone color in the back

like the color green of this one , not to dark or bright

LOVE this style and color, light colors on top brings out the youthful

Aww Shucks

Have you wondered which way would be the best for grilling those
corn on the cobs you have bought? Have I got an idea for you.
   For a long time i use to eat my corn just boiled. And on occasion
I still do. But this all changed while I was at a Fair one weekend.
I saw this really long line and wondered what was making it so long.
What was everyone waiting for? So I decided too join this line and
find out for myself.
   Too my amazement after 45 minutes I was close to the front of
the line and I saw 6 men at a grill. Each being 3 on each side standing.
Then they all worked together lifting up this grill and flipping it over.
and you guessed it, they had corn on it. While these batches were 
grilling they would pull down the shucks of the already cooked corn,
dip it in a huge vat of butter and give you napkins & then we gave them 
$3.00 bucks. 
   O.K. so whats so amazing about corn? I thought? Till I took a bite.
It was awesome!! So since that day I have grilled my corn on the cob

   My best way of  grilling corn is let the whole corn soak in 
just plain water for 30 minutes. Then place each corn in on a piece
of tinfoil and wrap tightly. Place on the grill ( I use charcoal)  that is 
500 -600 degrees, turn every ten minutes till done. Which is about 45 
minutes to an hour. Once done, I like to take the tin foil off , place corn
on grill again and let some of the shucks brown. Even if we peel them
off anyway, it adds a nice look to them.
So now you know how to grill corn. May your corn be an awesome
experience

SUMMERTIME

   Summertime has officially began with first big bang of  Memorial Day
and things could not be any sweeter than a  nice cold watermelon.
   This delightful tasting fruit is a wonderful addition to any meal on a 
hot day. It is full of water and healthy so let the kids play or adults
and enjoy a slice or two.
   I am sure there are many different ways that one could make delightful
fruit even better. 
Till the morrow: Enjoy your watermelon

Oatmeal grows Hair?

I do not know if oatmeal grows hair, but in my life it seems
to be doing just that.  I kinda put two and two together when
I was growing up. My hair seemed to grow much faster than
my sisters hair. I asked myself why? What am I doing different
than they are?  I ate oatmeal every day. They did not.
   Of course I do not think they believed me, but I had to stick
with my own rationalization, that it did grow my hair.
   Over the years I got tired of oatmeal and did not eat it so much.
I paid no attention, but my hair did not grow as fast as it usually
did when I ate oatmeal everyday. Besides they say it is good
for your heart & can lower cholesterol, that area I have no problem
in either. Yeahh!

   I know that oatmeal is not only a great tasting food
for breakfast, but it has many helpful uses to it's
name . It is considered heart healthy,
It helps with itching, like chicken pox or poison ivy, 
so fill your tub up and take an oatmeal bath.
   Also can help with acne. Just cook oatmeal and let it
cool. Spread it over your problem area of skin and
let sit for 15 minutes. Oatmeal can absorb oil and
bacteria from the skin and also exfoliate it. This helps
conquer the acne.
   Lately I had been losing some hair for no reason. So
I am making sure I have oatmeal everyday. This seems
to be helping again, because my hair quit falling out.
   Does oatmeal really help hair grow? I do not know
But as for me and my own experience, I say a happy yes

Till the morrow. Eat a bowl of oatmeal

Thanks Quaker being apart of my life always

My favorite way to eat oatmeal is with raisins
