Roasted Brussels Sprouts

We are trying to eat healthier and
that means adding more vegetables to our diet.
I really like Brussels sprouts but I have never roasted them before.
Roasting is a great way to bring out flavor and
natural sweetness in many vegetables.
Brussels sprouts are no exception.
Try roasting Brussels sprouts with shallots and mini sweet peppers,
sprinkle on Mrs. Dash Garlic and Herb seasoning blend.
You can sprinkle the top of the roasted vegetables with
some crispy bacon and  Parmesan cheese before serving.
Yum....

A Week of Sourdough in Recipes~

For Christmas this year,
my daughter-in-law Kim,
gave me this handy dandy pan....
the Wilton Advance 4-cavity Mini Loaf Pan.
Each cavity measures 5.75 W x 3"L x 2.125" D.
That means you can make 4 loaves of bread at once.

The small loaves are perfect for gift giving during the holidays or
you can enjoy one loaf of bread and
freeze the rest for later.

You'll always have a few loaves of bread stored in the freezer,
for when unexpected guests stop by or
you just want a slice of  quick bread,
which ever comes first~

Mardi Gras~ Music, Parades, Floats and Food!
Everyone wears the colors of Mardi Gras~
Purple- represents justice 
Green- represents faith 
Gold- represents power
Long colorful beads are thrown from beautiful floats.
Mardi Gras is French for Fat Tuesday,
that is the the final day before the penitential season of Lent,
which begins on Ash Wednesday.
Fat Tuesday is referring to the practice of the last night of eating before Lent.
Mardi Gras stems from pagan fertility rituals and
celebrations in honor of Springs Arrival.
Mardi Gras found it's way to Louisiana by way of French settlers.
It dates back to the Middle Ages.
The date on which Mardi Gras falls depends on Easter,
Mardi Gras is always 47 days before Easter.
