Dinner on a Chilly Night.....

Tonight's Dinner

It's 44 degrees outside right now (remember, it's Arizona), and it's only 7:20 pm. I rode my bike to my parents house today, visited with my aunt and my cousin as well as with my grandfather and my family. We had a really wonderful day talking about old times.

My sweetie wanted to order pizza for dinner, I said no, we have plenty to eat at the house. So I roasted some potatoes and made zucchini, tomato, and rice pilaf from Mediterranean Harvest by Martha Rose Shulman. I also made a dill and mint Greek yogurt sauce to go along with everything and served it with sliced cucumbers. It was a very good.

It's a Chilly Saturday.........

As of 8:41 am, it is 36 degrees outside. I am contemplating riding my bike this morning to my parents house......I think I will wait a little while for it to warm up. I rode to their house yesterday, and my legs are a little sore this morning. (It's about five miles.) I don't know about anyone else, but I was so stuffed from eating all day Christmas, that I felt like I needed to work some of it off.

We just finished a lovely breakfast of potatoes lightly sauteed in olive oil with garlic and onions. I served it with a side of scrambled eggs garnished with green onions, a roasted green chili and a small bit of cheese. That should keep me fueled for the morning.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas!
