19th birthdays and strawberries

Today I am grateful for good surgeons and fresh strawberries.

Dad went into and came out of surgery yesterday. It's scary to me and I think everyone to see him in the hospital. I'm just so thankful that everything went okay. I'll be seeing him tonight and I can't wait. He called Lindsay yesterday and said drunkenly, 'it's yor birfday. Allllll day.'

Mashed Turnips and Black Eyed Peas

This turned out so well!! I had to share my own made up (almost vegan) recipe: Equal parts Turnips and Black eyed peas 3 T flour 3 T butter Garlic to taste Salt, pepper and onion powder to taste 3 T nutritional yeast Boil the peas and turnips for approximately 20 min together in water.

Promise. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
