WORDS TO LIVE BY

Let love and faithfulness never leave you;
  bind them around your neck,
    write them on the tablet of your heart.
Then you will win favor and a good name
    in the sight of God and man.
~ Proverbs 3:3-4

WORKING, LEARNING AND PLAYING TOGETHER

The last couple days have been quiet. Michael has been spending a lot of time with Doug while he works in outside and in the garage. 


IN THE KITCHEN



I made these Whole Wheat Blueberry Pancakes and they were very good. I love the fact that they are whole wheat. 

I also made Pepperoni Pasta Salad and used tomatoes from our garden. The garden has been a bit of a disappointment for me this year. I think I bit off more than I could chew, planted to much and it got away from me. But I was happy to pick these tomatoes even though they aren't all that pretty. They tasted good in the pasta salad. 


Michael decided he was hungry for pizza so he made himself some - with bread, butter, cheese and pepperoni. I put them in the oven for him and he ate them both.

Pepperoni Pasta Salad

One of our favorite dishes when the weather turns warm is Pasta Salad. I like to make it first thing in the morning so that it is well chilled and the flavors have had time to really blend.


This is the recipe I use although it can easily be adjusted to suit your own tastes.

1 lb spaghetti noodles, cooked and drained
8 oz pepperoni, diced
2 peppers, diced ( I like to use green and orange to add color to the salad)
2 cucumbers, peeled, seeded and sliced
small container cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
1 cup grated cheese
1 (36 ounce) bottle Italian dressing

Mix together all the ingredients and let chill for several hours before serving.
