After the bee angrily flew against the window, he dove right into my dishwater!!!
After I was quite convinced that he was not still alive, I fished him out of the water - very carefully...
I am not a fan of bees... I have not been stung before(knock on wood) but I know that members of my family are very allergic - so I'm extra scared!!! If this isn't the queen - I don't want to meet her...
I thought I'd snap some before pictures of the backyard. Graham did some planting, and we began cleaning up the area to get ready for summer!
It's a work in progress...
There is nothing like a home-cooked meal after yard work! It's still cool enough for comfort food - so I whipped up some tasty chili.
Vegan Chili; so simple, tasty, and filling:-Saute onion, garlic, celery, bell pepper-throw in some carrots-add tomatoes and spices(I used cumin, chili powder and salt)bring to boil for 20 minutes-add in 2 cans of kidney beans-simmer on low for as long as you'd like. I simmered it for 2 hours on the stove.
What's chili without cornbread? I made my gluten free and it turned out pretty well!Gluten Free Cornbread:-1 cup cornmeal-1 cup garbanzo bean flour-1 egg-1 cup almond milk-1/4 cup melted earth balance spreadPour into greased 8 inch baking pan, bake at 425 for about 25 minutes. I spread a little more Earth Balance, and Honey(of course) on top! Tastes really good dipped in the chili!!Here is to a brand new week!
