Yes!

This made me smile and I totally relate to this perspective!

Someone asked me if I had plans for the fall. It took me a moment to realize that they meant autumn and not the collapse of civilization.

This just jumps out at me.

Little Big Miracles

“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” -Albert Einstein

Sloppy Joe Spice Mix

 

Spice Mix:

1/2 tsp ground fennel seed

1/2 tsp garlic

1/2 tsp dried mustard

1/4 tsp celery seed

1/4 tsp chili powder

1/4 tsp poultry seasoning

1/4 tsp salt

1/8 tsp pepper

1/2 tablespoon onion powder

1 tablespoon brown sugar

I added the spices to the following mix:

1 tablespoon ketchup

1 tablespoon “non-soy” sauce

1 tablespoon mustard

1/2 cup water

Then I sautéed onions, red pepper, and mushrooms and ground turkey in the amounts shown below.  After the meat began to brown I added all of the above.  

            1/2 onion diced

           1/2 red pepper diced

         4 ounces or so of cut up mushrooms

        1 pound ground turkey

(can use slightly smooshed up beans instead of turkey to make this a vegan dish)

 

 

 

Not Dull

In spite of the challenges and troubles life can bring

(and sometimes because of those)

My life is good

And I know it…

but….

Sometimes I know it

and some days I actually feel it

Today I know it AND I feel it

Not as something intangible,

but as something distinct and formed

and settled…

for now,

whatever it is it needed to get through

to get to me

                                   It’s nice.
