July 30, 2010 Strawberry Margueritas
Supper last night:
- Vegetable and Bean Minestrone from 500 Best Healthy Recipes. Recipe found by daughter Sarah. From garden: potatoes, broccoli, carrots, onions, celery, basil. Delicious.
Supper Tonight:
- Strawberry Margueritas made with frozen OG strawberries from the garden
- Little Caeser’s Pizza! Yes. My neck hurts. I couldn’t make homemade pizza tonight.
Harvested:
- 2 Very large bundles of Aroma and Sweet Basil. Basil was washed and then hung upside down to dry. I keep the bundles together with rubber bands and store the bundle in a paper bag, with holes cut out, and hang this.
- A handful of Gusto Hot and Jalapeno Peppers
- 1/2 gallon of Bush Beans
- 2 large Zucchini and 3 large Yellow Squash
My chiropractor is getting a bag of vegetables tomorrow, the Hot Peppers were especially picked for him. He usually plants a garden but just couldn’t this year. Dr Kyle saved me on Memorial Day from the worse pain ever when I threw some of my ribs out.
Jen’s Strawberry Margeuritas:
- 4 oz Strawberry Marguerita Mix. My favorite is Mr & Mrs T’s.
- 2 oz. Bacardi Rum
- 1/2 to 1 cup frozen strawberries
Put the Marguerita Mix liquid in the blender first, then the rum, then the frozen strawberries on top. Blend until smooth. No ice is needed. This makes one serving.
Margueritas take the edge off the anxiety that comes when your economic future is unclear after your economic assets have been devastated through no fault of your own, you just happen to be living in the here & now and your small business is struggling to survive after being successful before that economic crash that was no fault of your own.
