What I like about Autumn?

I like fall clothing-

comfy jeans, soft cozy sweaters and shawls.

I like lit candles 

and hearty food,

and suddenly all i want is soup or stew.

LED light garland sparkles in S's. room

adding a touch of magic and coziness

as the days get shorter.

Quinoa

Do you like quinoa?

I do.

Quinoa is fantastic!

Today we had a fantastic meal))

Quinoa with roasted broccoli and garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper.

Simple but very delicious!

And sooo good for us;)))

Wilted flowers

Delicate wilted flowers

Still beautiful!

Warm Mushroom Salad

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan over medium heat.

 Add mushrooms, garlic, salt and pepper and cook, stirring,

 until the mushrooms are tender, 3 to 5 minutes.

 Remove from heat and stir in rocket (or spinach) and walnuts (or pine nuts).

Figs

I love figs.

I love dried figs too,

but fresh figs taste quite different.

And they are so pretty!

This salad you can throw together in just a few minutes.

Peppery rocket, salty feta and sweet, beautiful figs! 

Add a splash of olive oil and freshly ground black pepper.

Really yummy!
