Turning Tomatoes into Turkey Meatball Parmigiana

Hi, guys! My garden is really starting to yield a lot of herbs and veggies now.  I cannot keep up with the tomatoes! This year the crop has been fabulous.  I have been making a lot of tomato sauces and stewed veggies.


This weekend I decided to use a big batch of tomatoes and turn them into this:

Turkey Meatball Parmigiana 

It was so delicious, and tasted even better since I slowed down and had dinner in my garden with my husband!


Do you have a veggie garden?  If you don't, I highly recommend you try planting an herb garden or a pot of tomatoes next year.  Start small, and I bet you will love having these yummy goodies at your fingertips.  

Have a great day!

One Tomato, Two Tomato, Three Tomato More

Hi! I am in from the garden with another batch of tomatoes and peppers. They took a while to get going this year (weather I am thinking), but now they are really producing.  Since my hubby can't eat tomatoes (yes, sad, I know), I am freezing a lot of them as I can't eat them all myself.  They will be great when the winter chill hits and I want a touch of summertime!


My nieces and nephews also gave me a Chia Pet herb garden.  I was skeptical, to put it mildly, but the basil, parsley and dill are growing well.  I am off to transplant them now in larger pots, just like I grow my herb garden in the yard.  I am hoping they continue growing.  It is really a fun experiment.  I will share a picture and let you know how they turn out.

Hope you have a great day.  Since I have been away at the blogging conference, I haven't gotten my fingers inky in a while.  I hope to remedy that tonight and have more stuff to share with you.

Green Thumb and Inky Fingers

Hi, guys!  Hope your weekend was a great one.  My hubby and I were busy around here.  We worked in our garden and also continued work on my stamp room.

I thought I would share with you some pictures of my garden.   This year I decided to grow some veggies in pots.  I am excited to see that my tomatoes are really growing nicely.  I also planted an herb garden.  I also am happy that so many flowers are in bloom right now.




















I have been asked to show how my stamp room is progressing.  I have a picture of my new desk that my hubby assembled for me.  It is from IKEA.  As you can see, the room is a work in progress.  I will be sharing pictures of the completed room soon, I hope.  I got the chair from Staples.  It is a Sealy Posturepedic chair.  I figured I needed to be comfy while I stamp.  It was very reasonable in price, and I could adjust it to my needs.  I have an OTT light now on my desk.  I love it.  I will share the rest of the details when we are finished.




Thank you to my hubby for writing a post for me on Sunday while I was working on my room.

Have a great day!  Hope you find a few moments in the day to do something you love!I
