Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Halloween Decorations theme and Rainbow Chard

 Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date.  Her theme is 'Halloween Decorations'.  Here is my piece, an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2").

My friend S dropped off some vegetables for me last month.  There was Rainbow Chard, kale, fresh beets, even some tomatoes from her garden.

This is my Rainbow Chard stir fry for the Dinner Date.  

I chopped the stems into 1/2" segments, the leaves into 1 1/2" segments. Then I sauteed the stems for 10 minutes in oil and minced garlic.  They were well softened, so I mixed the leaves in with my stir fry sauce for another 10 minutes. 

My stir fry sauce

2 tbs soy sauce

1 tbs dark soy sauce

1/4 c oyster sauce

1/2 tsp red pepper or chili flakes

1 tsp sugar

Some Fall Colour for 2023

 

The fall colours are really pretty right now, I stepped outside and snapped these photos for you!  Husband M is busy raking the leaves.

 My friend's husband caught covid for the first time and it was not mild.  He has no idea where he could have caught it.  Hopefully his wife will not get it.

I made a few Halloween loot bags for some of the small kids in the neighbourhood and bought some candy in case we get some kids this year.  Are you getting ready for Halloween?

 Husband M and I went to the mall one morning to run errands.  We decided to stop off at the Tim Horton's store to split a bacon and egg bagel and an apple fritter with our coffees.  I took a photo of their donut selection for you!

A great concert

 My sister who lives in Miami visited over the Canadian Thanksgiving weekend.  Queen and Adam Lambert were performing at the Scotiabank Arena October 8th.  It coincided with husband M and my wedding anniversary so that is how we celebrated!
