Sausage, Potatoes and Green Beans

She Loves Food and Flowers posted a simple and delicious recipe for 'Smoked Sausage with Potatoes and Green Beans' and I decided to try it.  Thanks Shelly!

I used new potatoes and frozen green beans (I had half a package in my freezer) with a European Debreziner sausage. It was wonderful and we ate it all. Of course, you can't go wrong with sausages! I wonder if it's the salt in the sausage that makes you feel you can't have enough of it?  I also love the new potatoes, I got them from Costco, they come pre-washed and ready for boiling. Ikea used to serve those with their meatball dinners, but they now just use a tiny scoop of mashed potatoes.  Everyone's cost cutting these days, or should I say smart marketing?




Here is some news I found interesting in the paper yesterday:

This is a human interest one  entitled 'What happened in Union Station'. It concerns events that occurred 'when a man jumped in front of a subway train' recently and how 'the heroes' were treated.  The comments are also interesting.

This one is kind of funny: '...except for Luiza who is in Canada.  A remark made in a Brazilian real estate infomercial has brought fame to a teenage girl and to Canada' as the infomercial went viral.  It sheds some light on the Brazilian sense of humour.
