Sausage and Potatoes
This little “spoonful” tonight is dedicated to a former roomie who knew how to keep my deepest secrets embedded in the blue walls.
Tonight we made “Sausage and Potatoes” for dinner.
Here’s the recipe:
Ingredients: sweet italian sausage, red potatoes, 1 red pepper, 1 green pepper, 1 onion, italian dressing, italian seasonings…voila! Soooooooo easy, cut it all up, put it into a casserole dish, drizzle (more like douse!) it w/ italian dressing and throw it in the oven for an hour and 1/2 or so at about 375. Serve with some good bread and enjoy.
Tonight while I was cutting up the peppers I was thinking about how many of my recipes hold the memory of a person who at one time opened their heart to me. I am thankful for these memories.
The girls decided they would take the seeds from the peppers, put them in a wet papertowel and see if they will grow. Aren’t children divine?
And if the saying, “you are what you eat” holds any truth, then, Mansuetude, I guess tonight I would reply that I am “sausage and potatoes”.
Peace and love to a certain soldier tonight whose impact on my world I will never have the adequate words to describe.
Just for tonight, THIS is my spoonful~!
Your Soldier didn’t get to eat dinner tonight!! Seeing our stove top and our caserole dish and bits and pieces of our kitchen made me realize what i’m missing!! I love the times we’ve spent in that same kitchen cooking together. Do we truly realize how much we love being with each other? I miss you so much tonight.
If you are as you say, sausage and potato, well girl, you be a very spicy dish! Someone out there seems to want to gobble you up, and I too will want a spoonful of that there yummmy. See, you are a spoonfull of sugar, well… carbohydrates… the sugars of life.
I love those little minds, why are all the children in the world so creative? Tell those seed planters to check out zoomaru’s web page… she’s got a little pumpkin girl who wants to know if fireflies have ears. Ask your girls.
Show them Meg and Dave in Alaska too, they got great adventure photos.
Now you do know the calore count, and the nutritional facts of that dish…. don’t you post it?

Supercali’s Soldier,
Sigh…. Cajun seasoning just doesn’t taste the same with you gone. Please come home soon.
