Baby Shower Posies

 Daughter L will be hosting a baby shower in just a few weeks and I made these baby shower posies to go in bud vases to decorate the tables.  The shower theme is 'Calvin and Hobbes'.

In full bloom

 And here is the amaryllis in full  bloom last Feb 16th.  We were digging out of a major snowstorm that day.  We have learned it is better to shovel several times for the day to lessen the load.  I noticed neighbours helping neighbours, especially if you own a snowblower.  In fact we did help our neighbours too as we do have a snowblower.  The tough part is when the snow ploughs come through and clear snow onto the edge of your driveway.

Keep Clear

 We have been having a lot of snow this year and it is a good idea to keep these vents around your house clear if you live in a snowy area of the world.

Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Favorite Animals and Tofu Dish

 Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date!  This is my sister's cat Luna, she is very shy (ACEO 2 1/2 " x 3 1/2").  I thought it would be a good one to put up for our 'Favorite Animals' theme.

For the Dinner Date, I am sharing my preferred Tofu recipe which I may have posted before but it is quick and easy and I use it all the time now.

Ingredients

3 cloves minced garlic

2 green onions diced

2 tbs canola oil

1 block of medium tofu

Sauce

2 1/2 tbs soy sauce

1 tbs black rice vinegar

1 tsp sesame oil

1/2 tsp chili crisp hot sauce

1 tsp sugar

Cut the tofu into small cubes

In a wok or saucepan saute the garlic and green onions in oil, add the tofu and sauce and stir for a few minutes until the tofu is warmed up.  Serve with rice.
