Work Wednesday: Experiences

Experience, experience, experience. I think it’s probably the most important piece to my writing. How can I write about something I have never experienced?

So, when I had the chance to participate in an African Drumming-Singing-Dance group event, I could not pass up the chance.

I am so glad I did. It was uplifting and life-affirming.

Now, back to the actual work of writing.

Tuesday Tunes: Teddy Swims

Some street music from the wonderful Teddy Swims

Monday Menu: Meatball Subs

The meatballs and sauce can be prepared and frozen, in portions if you like, and used to make subs or serve over pasta.

A quick tip, cookie scoops make meatball production easier and quick.

This is a DOUBLE recipe that makes 8 to 10 subs, you can easily halve the ingredients or you can freeze extra meatballs and sauce for later.

Meatballs:

2 lbs lean ground beef*
½ cup Italian breadcrumbs
½ onion, chopped
½ cup milk
1 egg
2 tbsp grated parmesan
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper
½ tsp crushed garlic
½ tsp oregano
½ tsp basil

Furry Friday: Flora not Fauna

The weather is still unusually hot and while the leaves in the mountains have changed, down here the plants are very confused.

My roses are in full bloom and beautiful. I dread what a sudden frost might do to the plants.
