One more day of cool rainy weather, then we are expected to be hit with the heat wave that has dominated much of the country. But, we have our generator to run the AC if the excessive heat is too much for the power grid.
Scott has grouted half the back hallway and mudroom floor. He hung a mirror in the half bath downstairs. Towel rack and toilet paper holder to go… Once that is done and the pocket door is installed we will have a fully functioning half bath to add to our full bath on the second floor.
Now that we have our ovens up and running… one of my favorite ways to cook vegetables, any vegetable, (root vegetables beg to be roasted) is to roast them. It mellows their flavor and brings out their natural sweetness. I love to just toss all my veggies in a roasting pan, drizzle oil over them with my seasonings (many people prefer baking sheets) and return about half an hour later to beautifully browned veggies exploding with flavor. Not being a salt user, I rely on my old pals garlic and citrus to highlight their flavors. Next to roasted veggies, I love my smoothies! You give me a big plate of roasted vegetables, a bowl of vegan creamy tomato soup and a vegan grilled cheese sandwich, smoothie and I am in heaven. Fortunately, Scott loves the same things, so “we” are in heaven…
