This will be just a quick update for you. Last night we really enjoyed baked sweet potatoes and a salad. I cannot speak highly enough of sweet potatoes! They are really high on my list of favorite vegetables, and are SO good for you. They are versatile and delicious, as well as being nutritionally fantastic. A special dinner memory for me is Mom's creation of mashed sweet potatoes, orange juice, and a little brown sugar. This would be put into a baking dish and kept warm in the oven for celebratory dinners like Thanksgiving and Christmas. It's my very favorite way to eat them. Funny thing is, we'd never seen a fresh sweet potato when I was a young girl in Pennsylvania...Mom used the canned ones and that's all I knew until my sister introduced me to the fresh ones in our 20's. That was my first baked sweet potato, and a sweet memory it is too. Anyway, dinner was great.
Tonight was to be spaghetti with some of my husband's yummy sauce from the freezer, with the addition of 2 roasted red peppers I'd frozen. We were going to start off with broiled mushroom cap appetizers - yes, this was all on hand. Dinner plans have changed, though, and maybe we'll have the spaghetti tomorrow night. I'll let you know. Thanks for reading - let me know what you think!
