My first born, Tempered Steele (Remington Steele x LF Diamond Rose) otherwise known as Babe. She was perhaps three in the photo. She is now 32 and chugging right along. She produced some very nice foals, including one halter champion.
And then a bright, simple dinner of leftover pork loin, leftover sweet potato and some nice green broccoli. We do have meals which do not contain pasta. Pasta is just so darn versatile. Just don't break the spaghetti!
This is a recipe I got from Denise a couple of years ago. Irish soda bread. I make it often, sans raisins. It's so simple and very good. She added a good one to my bread repertoire.
I also made a batch of sandwich rolls from the same recipe. They look a little rough but I didn't want to handle the dough too much. They still taste good. I make some larger for Mark and smaller for me.
We are having a dreary, on/off rainy day. I still have some soup I made a couple of days ago and today is a perfect day for soup at lunch. That's it. Have a perfectly wonderful Saturday.

The Sweet Potatoes look really good. Locally, we grow a lot of sweet potatoes down here, especially in the next Parish over from us. It's Avoyelles Parish, a lot of fields of alluvial dirt from the Red River, which gives it a semi-pink tint..
I love it when you slip in a little history of one of the horses. Babe is living her best life!
Thanks for the soda bread idea. I must try that, it's been ages.
So true about the noodles. Love your rolls and wow, 32. Very, very cool.
I have grown sweet potatoes but with that soil yours have to be very good, Tommy.
I should do it mire often, Boud. Ive had a lot of horses so there are a lot of snippets of story to tell. Do you want this recipe? I can email it to you.
You're going to listen to someone who is probably old enough to be your nonna. Stop breaking the pasta!
The recipe would easily adapt to vegan, Ivy.
I found it on her blog so I've got a screenshot, ty.
👍
Yum...yum....and yum! I love it when you show us photos of your horses and tell us about them. How about a shot of her at 32?
I made soup too. Leftover soup with lots of veggies. I spent the day working on cleaning up the shed! Lots of dirt and dust.
Your dinner looks delicious!
Your dinner looks absolutely scrumptious!!!
32 is a pretty good age. She must have been very well looked after !
Your meals always look appealing, and then I remember that I don’t love veggies. But the pasta though …😋
I'll try Lori. They are generally too far away when outside, so I'd need to drag myself to the barn when they are coming in.
It's a great thing to have in the refrigerate, Val.
Thank you. Gotta love leftovers, Miss Merry.
Thank you, Linda.
She has been, nick.
AC, no vegetables?! Have you tried roasting them. I hated Brussels sprouts until I tried roasting them. Now I really like them.
Hahahaha. Sorry, not sorry. I'm a breaker of spaghetti since back in the day. Angel hair. It's so good that way. And then even after it cooks, I'll use the spatula and chop it to bits if it's with red sauce. Then in a bowl or mug with a spoon.
Delightful.
If I do long veggies, I still break but only once or twice.
Either way, I'm a life-long supporter of breaking the noodles.
lolololol.
That said, I support you in your noodle no breaking in your house policy. lololol. So funny. You're making me giggle.
