While Parker is fretting, Josie is just soaking up the sun. This is her walking/dancing to the library in December. She's been riding her bike a lot and going without a coat.
Here she is walking to ballet, the shirt was off soon after this picture so we did hours of errands outside with her ballet dress and jeans. Crazy weather!
Tempeh with Mellow Mustard Sauce and Penne with Artichokes, Walnuts, and Olives from Quick-Fix Vegan
I've been trying to make a conscience effort to use tempeh, especially since I bought a twelve package case a month ago. Josie gets excited each time I open a package of tempeh, but to be honest we are really more of a tofu family. The Tempeh with Mellow Mustard Sauce reminded me of my mom's Swiss steak while I was making it. I don't remember what mom's dish really tasted like because I'm sure I turned my nose up at it with the sauce and everything, but I have fond memories of her cooking it. I could eat the mustard sauce on anything, seitan would work well too, but I thought it was great with tempeh. Quinoa would work great with the tempeh and sauce, but I forgot to make some and everyone was hungry. The whole wheat gobetti had artichokes, walnuts, sun-dried tomatoes and kalamata olives, so what is not to like? Frozen cherries were Josie's suggestion and they were quite delicious too.

Hmmm...10-20 degrees higher in winter months = 30-50 degree temps. 10-20 degrees higher in summer months = 90-110 degree temps? If the consistency carries through and this is not just a "warm winter," could be a shake and bake "summer?"
Hoping it doesn't mean the summer will be warmer. It doesn't always work that way. Of course I'm worried about global warming too, I just don't think my 12 year old needs to be depressed about it. :-)
