Finally

Guess What????

The Wind Stayed out of my neighborhood Today. I Worked in the Yard Most of the Day.
My Hubby & I Changed the Struts on our Car. And I BBQed.
Marinated Chicken, & London Broil in my Marinade Recipe, you can find it on my Blog. ( I added BBQ sauce to the Marinade only for the Chicken) but it was very nice indeed. And Steamed, Cauliflower. And Strawberry Shortcake for Desert. Fresh Strawberries right now are Cheap and Beautiful.
Very Tasty.

Our Cousin Gail Broke Her Wrist

Dear Gail,
I decided to post your terrible, Story on my Blog. I feel so bad and then today when you described how long you went for medical treatment. Ouch you are definitely one tuff Harley Girl.
"I hope your kids waited on you hand and foot."
Hope your riding your Harley Soon, the Weather is getting really nice, I guess you could ride with Wade a time or Two.


First e-mail from Gail;
I'm finally home for a while...i broke my wrist and had to have surgery...big time bummer. i had a compacted fracture and they put in a plate with screws and pins. i fell off Wade's peterbilt on my way to visit the kids...so much for being helpful with the windshield washing! it is healing good, but I'm missing out on cycle rides. at least it was my left wrist.


Second e-mail after I asked her what happened;

I felt so sorry for myself yesterday when Wade and Todd rode off without me! They went to the rally at West World in Scottsdale. But then I thought of others way worse off than myself and got busy doing my rehab exercises! I cannot quite make a fist yet, but I'm working on it. The way my wrist broke was a bad break as it completely severed the wrist from the arm and shoved it up into it. So it was compacted and impacted. At least it wasn't compounded..I'm always trying to see the glass as half full...lol. It happened in Valentine, NE while hauling combines for the harvester Wade works for. I went along because the route took us through Sioux Falls, SD and I would get to spend 10 days with my kids that live there. I was trying to get out but keep my dog from bolting from the truck....he wasn't used to riding yet. I was on the top step and hanging on with my left hand and just let go to grab the dog. It all happened fast. I fell on the cement fuel pad and heard the crack, then felt it! We had to drive on to Jamestown, ND to drop off combine for trade-in...then continued to Sioux Falls. I got to the ER about 28 hrs from the time it happened. I wasn't about to get Wade off his schedule so I lied and told him it was just a bad jam...he knew the truth but there really was no choice but to get to a good hospital. So we made it...and it all worked out. Of course, no insurance...so I had to get Wade drunk last night to show him the bill....it's just money and nothing to be worried about. Just deal with it.

Talk Soon Love Ya ! ! ! ! !

I Hope You Like The Recipes

I hope you like the recipes, I have been putting on my Blog. (LET ME KNOW PLEASE)

I made the Moo Shu Noodles tonight, and it was really good, I also used button mushrooms instead. Once again Smiths didn't carry, shiitake mushrooms, and I already had fresh (button mushrooms.)

I am into learning to cook, better healthy meals. Whole Wheat Pasta, low Fat & Low Calorie, Meals.
And I have lost a few pounds in the last 3 weeks with diet.
I fix alot of Popcorn, 94%, butter free. Low Calorie. Great Munchie Satisfying snack.
And Sugar Free Chocolate Jello Pudding, with light Cool Whip, or Light Yogurt.
Fat Free Cream Cheese, on my Sandwiches replaces, Mayo or Salad Dressing. And tastes Great.
( Some Fat Free Foods, have more Calories then Light Foods. So depending on what your trying to cut Fat or Calories. May help you Decide on what works best for you. But I am also trying to Lower my Cholesterol with diet. I have been getting from the Deli Turkey Pastrami and use it for alot of different things. Sandwiches yes and also as a breakfast Protein with mushrooms, onions, salsa, scrambled with egg beaters. The egg beaters substitute has very few Calories, and no Cholesterol. Corn Tortillas also have fewer Calories then the Wheat but I will use fat free Cheddar Cheese and put a little on a Tortilla, add the egg beaters scramble and top with a little more cheese and heat till the Tortilla is crisp. (BREAKFAST PIZZA) yes.

Rachael Ray's Moo Shu Noodles

Moo Shu Noodles
Ingredients
Salt
1 12-ounce box egg fettuccine
( I used whole wheat fettuccine)
4 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil, divided
2 eggs, beaten
3/4 pound boneless pork chops, thinly sliced
Ground black pepper
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced on the bias
( I used one bunch of Green Onions )
2 tablespoons ginger (about a 2-inch piece), peeled and grated
3 to 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped or grated
1/2 pound shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and caps thinly sliced
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 small head Napa or Savoy cabbage, thinly sliced
(Smiths was out of Napa so I used, Bok Choy)
1/2 cup chicken stock
Yields: 4 servings
Preparation
Place a large pot of water over high heat to boil. When the water comes up to a bubble, add some salt and drop in the fettuccine. Cook the pasta to al dente according to package directions. Drain the cooked pasta and reserve.
Place a small skillet over medium heat with 1 turn of the pan of oil, about 1 tablespoon. Add the beaten eggs to the pan and scramble. When the eggs are done, reserve them in a bowl.
Place a large skillet over medium-high heat with 3 turns of the pan of oil, about 3 tablespoons. Season the pork with salt and pepper, add to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove the meat from the pan and reserve warm.
Add the scallions, ginger and garlic to the pan, and cook until aromatic and the scallions are tender, about 1 minute. Add the shiitakes to the pan and stir-fry until golden brown, 4-5 minutes.
Combine the hoisin and soy sauce together in a small bowl.
Add the cabbage to the pan and stir-fry until tender, about 5 minutes. When the cabbage is tender, add the reserved pork and scrambled eggs back to the pan along with the hoisin-soy mixture and the chicken stock. Stir-fry to fully heat through, about 1 minute, and then toss with the reserved cooked pasta. Cook to heat through and serve.
