Polish Kielbasa Sausage and Peppers

 Always looking for an easy recipe, I came across this.  My husband had grilled the onions, peppers and mushrooms in foil the day before, so these are the leftovers!

All you do is chop and add some olive oil.  Grill in a pouch of aluminum foil.  I think you could also try this in the oven...but I haven't done that yet. Make sure to close it up so it steams.

Saute up your precooked sausage and add your steamed onions, peppers and mushrooms. I really like the texture of these vegetables.

Coming this next week, I have recipes for a Thai Peanut pasta and some Creamed Spinach as well as some Shirt Refashions.

I hope everyone has a great weekend.  Quite a weather change we've had lately.  Back to jackets. What are you doing?

Roasted Potato Salad..BEST EVER!

Whoopie Pies!

I woke up today, sunny side up.  I'm not really sure why...
because I was especially exhausted.  I'm blaming the unusual heat we've been having. If not that, then it's because my daughter is working on 2 more teeth.  She wakes up crying every so often, and goes back to sleep. 

Poor baby.  Again at 5 this morning she was crying...I got all the way to her room and waited, and lo and behold, she stopped. Yea! I eagerly went back to bed.  The sheets never felt so good. I've never loved sleep as much as I do now after having a baby. It really makes you appreciate it.

Well, we celebrated our 6th Wedding Anniversary Saturday.  I made the Whoopie Pies! I'm so glad they turned out.  I can cook, but I'm the first to say that baking is not my strong point.

Glass Redo Projects

I bought this brown glass (below) many years ago from a thrift shop.  My husband spray painted it red for me.  I love it.  He did do a base coat first which I think was a light brown or something.

What a difference a coat of paint makes!  This is now the coffee pod holder!

 He also painted some of my Ball jars too!  We wrapped newspaper around them and used some painters tape.  He sprayed the inside of the jars.  This one I put rocks in the bottom and then put some Crimson Flowers in it. This way the plant can drain.  I'm doubt putting holes in the bottom of these jars would work out very nicely.

This made a great Mother's day gift!
I hope all you Mother's out there had a great day Sunday!  I know I did!
