Kielbasa with Black Beans, Roasted Peppers and Onions and Corn… Mezze Platter before Supper

Vaccinated supper tonite… Live from NYC…

Blustery day… temps in the low 50’s… cloudy with scattered sprinkles…  few folks out… picking up kids from school… heads down against the wind… scarves flapping wildly… hustling along carrying book bags while little ones scamper ahead oblivious to the chill 💨 


Leisurely breakfast for two… Mr Sam sleeping in… snuggling with the radiator… the hubs enjoying cottage cheese and roasted tomatoes with his hot coffee ☕️ Another delicious banana 🍌with iced coffee🧋sitting at the kitchen table discussing supper… Mr Sam finally joining the party just in time to lick the rest of the cottage cheese remains from the hubs dish😽


The hubs off to his workshop… creative juices flowing… Packing up Mom’s goodies… some books from our local trading group… food for the week… a random pair of her sunglasses discovered in our house and finally mail… it’s off to the races… stopping by the market for a few fill in items…  then off to Mom’s for a visit.  


She is so looking forward to seeing Cyrano at her movie theatre (there is one in her complex) however the showing has ended… so glad to find both it and the original one from 1950 available on cable… she is excited to see the original again with José Ferrer and Mala Powers…  grateful to set it up for her to view after supper 🎥 


Arriving home hungry… setting up a quick snack platter to share… roasted tomatoes… hummus with roasted peppers… blueberries… almonds… peanuts… celery, carrot and zucchini sticks… cheese cubes and a few wheat thins… just enough to hold us till supper is ready… enjoyed with a glass of Josh Cabernet 🍷 


Supper tonite… fresh corn and black beans… cooking in olive oil flavored with the smokiness of the kielbasa slices browned in the pan first… oven roasted peppers and onions… a sprinkling of minced fresh parsley 🌿 Delicious and light after our earlier snack 🧀 🫐 🥜 


Cautiously optimistic regarding peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia… trust but verify… hoping for the slaughter to end and peace to rein for the peoples of both countries #peaceforukraine 🇺🇦 

Second boosters now available... if you are immune compromised or have comorbidities now is the time for self care #GetYourJabOn  Elderly are recommended as well 💉Mask up as needed… and wash those germy hands 😷💕

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