From Town to Country: A Wife's Tale

• Tuesday, October 7, 2008 - Shopping and Recipe

Posted in In the Kitchen

I went out shopping today at Good Will and the Thrift shop looking for items for Chas.  Her new therapists have given me tons of ideas of what to get for her that will be helpful.  I found a couple of things and she really liked them once she got home. 

I found a few other things, 3 interesting jars for the kitchen, a pair of jeans and pants for Madison along with a table runner.  I also found a couple skirts for myself as well.  I spent $15.00 between the 2 places.

Then I headed over to JoAnn Fabrics... they are clearancing out the store as they are moving to a new location.  I found some fleece to make pillows and pj's.  I'm thinking Christmas gifts.

I have such an abundance of sweet peppers in the garden that I made Sausage Pasta Supper tonight.  Its one of our favorite dishes.  Isn't it pretty!  This picture is before its served with the pasta and looks just as pretty on the plate.

Yummy Supper

I thought I'd share the recipe with you.  I found it in a Taste Of Home Publication.

Sausage Pasta Supper

  • 1 package (16 ounces) uncooked penne pasta
  • 1 pound smoked kielbasa or Polish sausage, cut into 1/4-inch slices
  • 1 medium green pepper, julienned
  • 1 medium sweet red pepper, julienned (I added red pepper as well)
  • 1 medium onion, halved and sliced
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 jar (26 ounces) meatless spaghetti sauce, warmed

Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in large skillet, saute the sausage, peppers and onion in oil until vegetables are crisp-tender.

Drain pasta; divide among six serving plates. Top with spaghetti sauce. Using a slotted spoon, top with sausage mixture. Yield: 6 servings.

Enjoy!
Carol

About Me

We've been working on the family farm for 3 years trying to get it back to a working farm. The farm was neglected for 15+ years before we took it on. The summer of 2008 is our family's first experience living in the country, so began our journey from town to country...
