Two Recipes


So here are two very unhealthy delicious recipes that we've been enjoying lately. They are more winter recipes  than summer recipes I suppose but still good.  Also, I bet they could be converted!  To be more healthy I mean!  I should be cool and do pictures and all that but I'm not that cool. 

Sausage Penne Pasta

Saute Smoked sausage slices in onions and coconut oil. At the very end of the saute add two cloves of fresh garlic.  Add three cups of chicken broth.  Add uncooked penne pasta.  Put a lid on it and simmer for twenty minutes till pasta is soft and liquid is gone.  Add more liquid if you run out before pasta is soft.  Right before serving pour cream over it and stir in.  And then stir in parmesan cheese.       We ate this with garlic toast and romaine lettuce salad.  My pickiest eater had THREE servings till the evening was over.  He wanted some for a bedtime snack.    Now if I could get the carb count down on those penne pastas I'd be one happy girl! :) 


Next recipe.   CHOCOLATE!!!!   The picture for this one is in the post before this post..... 

Chocolate Pie.
Heat together 1 1/2 Cup cream and 2 egg yolks till very hot and getting just a little thickened....not boiling.  Take off heat and add 2 cups of semi sweet chocolate chips.  Stir till smooth.  Pour into prebaked pie crust.  Cool and serve with real whipped cream.  To make this THM you only need a almond flour crust of some sort and use your own sweetened chocolate......  Also.  If you whip another cup of cream and fold that in at the end I bet you'd have a silkier texture.  We enjoyed the deep dark fudgy chocolate just how it was.  


Now if you come see me sometime I'll make this for you personally.  But for now.....make it and pretend we had you for a meal.

Happy Birthday Keagan

Keagan turned three while we were in Idaho. So we made a cake and celebrated with the Skrivseth cousins this year. He was enthralled watching me make the cake. Had to have his little hand on that hat! gazing in adoration at it. Just about ready to blow those candles. He kept telling me that we couldn't sing Happy Birthday though. He's easily embarrassed! Silly guy! I rather like my little three year.

Forgiveness

 Forgiveness  Forgiveness has bones It has a brain It uses logic  And common sense  Forgiveness goes about Finding a common ground. It shows up in common places. It happens unsuspected. Forgiveness allows one to Name the thing that happened. Forgiveness gives one a way To see it for what it was. Forgiveness provides for the  Empty spaces in conversation  And allows one to listen  And grieve outside of one’s own experience. Forgiveness walks into a situation  And remembers. But walks with peace And knows calmness. Forgiveness has an earpiece  On the heart  And a microphone  At his mouth Saying the words that Forgiveness has given him. Forgiveness doesn’t walk with fear. Forgiveness looks alone. But He’s always always  Hand in hand with gentleness and kindness. Forgiveness can stand alone though. It doesn’t melt away or dissipate  With time. Forgiveness is that little happy wren  On your shoulder  Forgiveness sings...

Let me tell you how God answers prayer

      Did I ever write on here that I am teaching school at our little church school?  I absolutely love it and find that it's been a neat way to feel useful and invest in our bubble.  But I am requiring my kids to tell stories and write them and read them.  And right now they are in a four week story writing assignment and I began to wonder what I thought I was doing requiring something of them that I am not really proficient at nor am I very knowledgable about.       So for my story to write  let me tell you a little bit about how God answers prayer.  Sometime I feel like I should write Jeanie's whole story.  But not this time.             Jeanie's been having focal seizures.  We don't know when they started.  All we know is that we were advised to go get her growing pain/ leg cramps looked into and it started the beginning of many tests of which we still aren't done with....
