Meatless Monday Mushroom Pepper Onion Sauté over Rice Pilaf & Cranberry Cordial

 Resurgence supper tonite…  Live from NYC…

Delightful day…  sunny ☀️ warm up beginning…  63°F… mild enough for Mr Sam to enjoy his day out in the greenhouse… currently plant free…  loves sniffing in all the corners… lounging in his box 📦 without restraint… one happy puss 😽


Breakfast… iced coffee🧋toasted english muffin with melted swiss… hubs enjoying his hot oatmeal with berries and coffee ☕️ Off to the workshop to continue his project…  spent much of the day on paperwork and calls…  late afternoon approaching… skies darkening early… time to play in the kitchen 🫕


Took time to make Susan Pesznecker’s Cranberry Cordial… thank you Susan… incredibly easy… done in under 10 minutes…  letting it steep for the next 6 weeks… something to look forward to as we delve deeper into the darkest time of the year… approaching the longest night on the winter solstice… time for a cocktail 🍸 


Meatless Monday… another triumph… roasted yellow and green peppers 🫑 roasted onions 🧅 sautéed mushrooms in garlic 🧄 red beans… simmered  with homemade chicken stock… smoked paprika and dried oregano served over brown rice orzo pilaf… yummy 😋 Of course, the hubs enjoyed his with a good splash of Tabasco and a side of leftover chicken thigh (meatless isn’t his thing)  Served alongside Josh Cabernet for him… Casual Garcia Vinho Verde for her… Dessert… vanilla ice cream and decaf ☕️ for the hubs… coffee ice cream 🍦 for yours truly


Another milestone today… international travel opening for vaccinated tourists… Canadian border opened for vaxxed folks as well… certainly seems like #GetYourJabOn means less restrictions… so grateful for the Pfizer mini dose for kiddos… keeping them safe… in school and on grandparents laps… so important… meanwhile…. Mask up… limit interactions… soar through the market and wash those germy hands 💕😷

How was your day?   What’s on your plate?   Thoughts?
