What's For Din-Din Tonight


Colorful and Delicious Roasted Veggies!

Probably all my readers have made Roasted Vegetables before!  I love to roast veggies, as roasting them intensifies their flavors, brings out their natural sugars and turns them into sweet, healthy treats!  The broccoli florets turned out especially yummy!

In case you've never tried to roast veggies, or if they never turn out quite right, here's a great link all about roasting veggies.   It explains exactly what to do and what not to do! 


I also made some tri-color Quinoa!

QUINOA  is just so healthy!  (Pronounced KEEN-WA)

Hey, I'm so HAPPY that today wasn't the end of the world after all!  Although I heard on the news that we had a "close call" with a falling Asteroid!  Yup...it came within 4.3 million miles of earth!  LOL!

Quinoa Plant

I enjoy growing something every spring/summer.  It makes me feel a part of the whole "spring meaning new life" thing.  So I threw some Quinoa in some soil about a month ago, after finding out online that Quinoa is not a grain...it's a seed.  They must really be seeds because tiny plants are growing now...lol.  Sometimes I pluck them out and feed them to Too-Too, my cockatiel.  He seems to love them.
