ONE JAR LEFT.........SAD

Well darn, one jar left of our wonderful zucchini relish. I will hoard it a while longer. Just knowing it is there gives me comfort. It is sweet savory and goes so wonderfully with all kinds of meats, on burgers it adds so much flavor and makes them juicy.

We had powerful rain storms late afternoon. As I sat reading by the living room windows the showers started lightly, just a soft patter, then the showers came in harder and the plum tree blossoms were giving way and blowing onto the street. Then I heard the rain wild on the roof and the windows were so blurred I cannot see out. I opened the door and the rain blew at me cold and furious. I closed the door in a flash. It was hammering out there and so it went for about an half hour. I must say though I loved sitting in my chair reading a good book and listening to the assault on the house. I love being cozy inside on a day like this.
Well as can be expected here in the valley when all passed over it was totally calm out and all was cleansed. Streets, sidewalks, driveway all washed clean. Natures power washer!

Tonight in my kitchen we are having a fave of my hubby's. He makes special trips over to this meat market in the country and buys sausage that reminds him of what his father used to make. He truly loves this sausage. We fix it the old European way, just boiled and served with boiled potatoes with a good helping of butter and a veggie to the side. Tonight I am making sauteed spinach with onions slices. This is tasty I saute the onions till limp and then add the spinach and cook till wilted(a few minutes) then add salt and pepper to taste and a little more butter. We love spinach and have it quite often.

Well no more chatter as I have nothing to say. Our life is pretty quiet right now.
Till later.
