Organic Celery

 Husband M bought a bunch of organic celery because it was on sale and there was no regular celery at the grocery store that day.  They are smaller, tighter bunches than the larger regular celery.  They did not look particularly appetizing but when we tried them they are surprisingly crunchy and fresh tasting, greener, crispier and so delicious!  They are much more expensive but we would get them on sale again.

On Peanuts

 If I knew this I had forgotten.  They even look like legumes.

Knockoff Pregnancy Pillow

 So I decided to get myself a knockoff pregnancy pillow.   It is half the price daughter L paid for hers. I learned that if you have high blood pressure, it is better to sleep on your left side.  This is a comfortable way for me to try doing this.

Then I realized it is better for me to sleep on my back for my sleep machine!  Luckily husband M loves it and will use as support under his knees, so it is a win!

Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Pyjamas and Snow Pea Stir Fry

Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date. The theme is 'Pyjamas' and here is my ACEO (2 1/2" 3 1/2").

For the Dinner Date, I did a snow pea stir fry.  It cooks up quickly, you can even eat them raw.

snow peas (stringed)

2 cloves garlic minced

2-3 gr onions diced

2-3 tbs canola oil

Sauce:

1 tbs dark soy sauce

2 tbs light soy sauce

2 tbs oyster sauce

1 tbs corn starch

1/2 c water

1 tsp sugar

1 tsp sriracha sauce (or other hot sauce)

 In a pan (I use my new'ish wok these days), saute garlic in canola oil.  When the cloves start to brown, add snow peas and green onions.  Saute for 2 minutes.  Mix in sauce and simmer for another 2 mins.
