Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Outer Space Theme and Roasted Mushrooms

 


Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date's Outer Space art theme! Here is my ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") based on one of those famous man in the moon photos.

For the Dinner Date, I made some roasted mushrooms.  They are easy and delicious. I put onions and tomatoes with mine. When Grandson C is over I roast without salt and it tastes just as good, healthier too!  I just set a bit aside and blend it with daughter L's breastmilk.  We discovered he loves mushrooms.

A beautiful painted picture and a great idea with the mushrooms; the grandson also enjoys it.

It's still almost impossible to believe that mankind has set foot on the moon.

I like the direction you went with your art. What would've been really fun is if the astronaut was planting a Christmas tree on the moon. :)

Our tummies are sensitive to mushrooms. I don't like the texture of mushrooms and honestly, I can't tell the flavor adds anything to my spaghetti recipe. That's the way I use to make it when we were first married and before we understood food allergies. Plus, it's kind of spongy feeling which I don't like. It's funny, our children love mushrooms and as far as I know isn't a problem for their stomachs. We're all different.

Thanks for visiting, my dear. Have a doodletastic weekend! xo

One more thing, Rain's comments are turned off (I think). Do you know if this is intentional? I sent her an email yesterday since I couldn't leave one but haven't heard back. I hope she's okay.

Love me some shrooms!

I love mushrooms too. So, you puree them and add them to a bottle with breast milk? I never thought of that!

Christine said...

Cathy it sounds from her last post that Rain is quitting blogger but will continue the last 3 themes till year end for us. So sad to hear.
