Yesterday we had some severe storms come through our area as well as a small tornado. Although, Austin is about 20 miles from where we live, tornadoes do not get that close very often. Luckily no one was hurt, but some homes were damaged. Some other good news is our greenhouse is still standing. We will work on the greenhouse again this weekend. We still need to order the plastic and a couple of windows.
I met the hubby this evening after work for a margarita. I guess it would not be so bad to just have one margarita, but I always have to eat chips and salsa too. Unhealthy indulgences are good to occasionally break up the monotony. Too bad there is no such thing as a healthy margarita. I wonder if a kale margarita would taste good?
Gardein Mandarin Orange Crispy Chick’n is one of my favorites. The sauce is delicious. If you have this, dinner will be ready in less than 30 minutes! Unless you serve it over brown rice. That will take a little longer. I made jasmine rice this evening. I also added red and green bell peppers as well as a few scallions to the Mandarin Orange Crispy Chick’n this evening. But this is definitely not necessary, because it is great on its own.
Have you ever thought of making your own Worcestershire sauce? I can honestly say, the thought never crossed my mind. Visit The New York Times for Mark Bittman’s recipe for Vegan Worcestershire sauce and you just might change your mind about making it. A word of warning, it looks time-consuming but there are a lot of things that take a lot of time yet we attempt them anyway. There are a lot of ingredients, but seems like it would be very flavorful. Let me know if you give it a try.
