The baby potatoes sound great…I’m adding that to my menu this week. I would love to know more about the stir-fry snap peas and tomatoes.
Monica, the peas / tomatoes are delicious. And easy!
I heat the wok (use a skillet if you don’t have a wok) and add one or two teaspoons of olive oil. Doesn’t take much. When the oil is hot, add the sugar snap peas (I use a one pound bag) and stir fry until just beginning to brown. Just before they are done, add the cherry tomatoes (halved) and stir fry for another minute or two. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve. Enjoy!

I am so jealous of your lilly collection you will notice that most of mine in large quantity now are the SAME color. I am just too cheap to buy and have not met folks who want to swap. I do however give away tons… just how many red or yellow lillies does one need?
I do however have just a few very lovely different ones from a patient one time that appreciated my care and her husband brought me a bag of them. I really couldn’t believe that!
Hope you feel better very soon. I am guessing but would Christmas be your favorite time of year?
Karen Deborah, yes, Christmas is my favorite time of year. I think about it and plan for it all year long. 🙂 ~~Rhonda
Wow, the Night Beacon is GORGEOUS!!!! I have just a few day lilies around my yard and they’re the regular pale orange no idea as to the name. And I’d like to say that I’m in love with your home, I’m going to add you to my RSS 🙂
