Try It Tuesday- March 22

Life has been pretty busy the past couple of weeks. Fortunately, no one has been sick!

A few weeks ago I decided that one of my Try Its would be to make my own kombucha. My first 2 attempts to grow my own scoby failed. So, I got one from a friend who has been making her own kombucha for years. Now we are growing beautifully!

Because I just started this batch, I won't have results by next Tuesday- it takes 10-13 days to finish. But by then I will have pics as the process progresses!

Try It Tuesday- March 1

This week's Try It Tuesday is a recipe I watched on Paula Dean's show and thought I would give it a shot. I'm making Mashed Rutabagas. I've never had rutabagas, so this will be interesting! It looked tasty, but that could be because it was Paula Dean!

Italian Salad- New Family Fav!

I was pleasantly surprised at my family's response to the Italian salad I made tonight! It's entirely g-free but you would never know!

Brown rice spiral noodles- al dente
Baked chicken- marinated in Italian dressing overnight
Grape tomatoes
Pepperoncinis
Mini pepperoni slices
Black olives
Shredded Parmesan, Romano, Asiago cheese

All tossed in a little Italian dressing- YUM!!!!!

Try It Tuesday- Feb 15

Jeremy and I have never been to the Seattle Symphony. So, this week's Try It Tuesday is to go the symphony! I'm super excited- this weekend features Pinchas Zukerman, the viola spectacular! I'll probably sweeten the deal for Jeremy by taking him out to dinner at a restaurant of his preference (since we usually go to mine!).


As for last week's Try It Tuesday- EPIC FAIL! I think I made it to Thursday without Facebook! Plus I got a new phone and was excited about loading Facebook on it. Plus I was sent several messages, blah, blah, blah.... Oh, well. It was worth trying :)

Try It Tuesday- Feb 8

Since this week looks to be a full and busy one, I think I'm going to take it easy on my Try It Tuesday. Nothing that is too time consuming, costly, etc. So this week I am giving up Facebook. I seem to do quite a bit of communication through Facebook but for this week I will just have to use my phone!

Last week I signed up for the St Patty's Day Dash. And Chloe is going to run it with me :) We got our bibs and shirts, now we just need to get costumes together. I think that is the part that Chloe is most excited about!
