Maternity Pillow

 Daughter L who is expecting bought a comfortable maternity pillow that allows you to sleep easily on your left side which is apparently the best side to sleep on in pregnancy.  Two of her friends had done the same.  So many new things these are available these days.

Here is a photo from the website of what it looks like.

Amaryllis Update

 So 2 weeks after bringing the 6 amaryllis plants out of dormancy I noticed leaves appearing on 3 of the plants.  Then a few days later leaves on 2 others.  I will see what the last one decides to do!

Multi Grain Cheerios

 I have been having Multi Grain Cheerios for  breakfast.  It is nutritious and even has iron! One of my sisters think processed foods aren't healthy but multigrain is considered healthy I think.  Husband M says his sugar readings are fine with this cereal, he is diabetic.

Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Snow Creatures and Beef Bulgogi

Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date! Here is my Snow Creatures piece, I went with a Yeti puppet (Abominable Snowman). It is an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2").

For the Dinner Date, I made beef bulgogi.
 

 I had a pound of extra lean ground beef and got the idea to use a store bought bulgogi marinade.  It is very tasty no to mention quick and easy.

1 pound extra lean ground beef

1/4 carrot thinly sliced

1 onion sliced (I used a colourful red onion as pictured) 

2 green onions diced

2  tbs canola oil

3 tbs bulgogi marinade

Heat oil, saute carrots, onions until softened.  Mix in ground beef.  When is it browned add green onions and stir for a few more minutes.  Enjoy!
