Feed my Family: Spice it up!

Ok, noticing a theme?

Yes, it is Friday...

Yes, I'm linking with Becky's Feed My Family Friday.

It's another pasta recipe.

Well, we don't have pasta once a week -

but when we do it is with

(say it with me)

Brown Rice Pasta.

I do like to experiment with recipes, and

it is so fun to disguise the same ol'

chicken & pasta with different accessories.

Today is a spicy-kind of day.

Add a bit more oil & vinegar to thin

and this sauce can be a salad dressing.  mmmmmmmm!

Spicy Thai Noodles sound so cultured,

so fancy and I apologize deeply if you have a peanut allergy.

I can't imagine...not only because I love PB,

but because it is so serious!

Kids picky eaters?

They will like this.  If they like PB&J, 

or dipping their carrots/celery in PB.

Try it!

Fathers & Daughters

I know a girl,
She puts the color inside of my world
But she's just like a maze
Where all of the walls all continually change

And I've done all I can
To stand on her steps with my heart in my hands
Now I'm starting to see
Maybe it's got nothing to do with me

CHORUS
Fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too

Boys, you can break
You'll find out how much they can take
Boys will be strong and boys soldier on
But boys would be gone without warmth from
A woman's good, good heart



On behalf of every man
Looking out for every girl
You are the god and the weight of her world

CHORUS
Fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too
So mothers, be good to your daughters too
So mothers, be good to your daughters too

Lyrics of John Mayer's song, Daughter's
