I'm officially back out on location to paint for the fall. I have declared that fall is here, though it was hot and sweaty work yesterday afternoon. This is the field next to my yard. It is left to nature, unmowed for my aesthetic as a painter.  It has a variety of trees, including pines, hardwoods and some flowering trees like Dogwoods. The Dogwoods are starting to turn now. Despite the heat, it was a pleasant afternoon.

 

 Tip of the Day- Grocery Shop Wisely

 

 Plan your meals around your grocery store's flyer. Instead of just planning your meals based on a cookbook or whatever you can dream up, plan all your meals around what's on sale in your grocery store's flyer. Look at the biggest sales, then plan meals based on those ingredients and what you have on hand, and you'll find yourself with a much smaller food bill than you're used to. Check out the specials on your store's web site before you go for last minute sales.

 

Recipe of the Day

   Beef and Spinach Lasagna:
From my daughter the caterer- http://jackie-eats.blogspot.com



Meat Sauce:
1 pound of ground beef
1 jar tomato sauce
1 onion, chopped into small pieces
1 garlic clove, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
Salt & pepper

In a skillet on high, heat up the olive oil.  Add the onion, let cook for a minute then add the garlic.  After another minute add the ground beef.  When the beef is brown add the jar of tomato sauce and Italian seasoning.

Reduce the heat to medium and let cook for 10 minutes.  When finished use for lasagna or store in the refrigerator to use for another pasta dish.

Lasagna:
1/2 box lasagna noodle, cooked per package directions
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 package frozen spinach
Prepared meat sauce

Spoon some of the tomato sauce on the bottom of the lasagna pan.  Top with 3 noodles.  Spoon on more sauce, shredded cheese, spinach, and ricotta cheese.  Repeat until your lasagna pan is full of wonderful goodness.  Sprinkle some more cheese on top and bake at 375 for 30-45 minutes or until everything is bubbly.
