Today, since it was so cold and Daddy had the car, we stayed in and Mommy started organizing her closet. Since we moved in our new home while Mommy was on bedrest, things didn't get completely unpacked and in the right spots. Mommy safely put the girls on the bed and blocked all the sides with pillows, the girls played with toys and laughed at each other. After a while, the girls fell asleep. Mommy took the opportunity to get a lot of it done, when she came out of the closet she picked up her iphone to capture a priceless moment. Our oldest and most particular dog was snuggled up next to Amelia. Amelia even had her hand on Minnie's ear. Why is this such a priceless event? Well, Minnie hasn't really gone near the girls, she pretty much ignores them, unless they are crying she comes and finds Mommy. Mommy thinks she comes and gets her so the babies will be quiet. Minnie slept with the girls the entire time.
Tonight, Mommy made up a new recipe to use some of the Swedish Sausage we made on New Year's Day.
Swedish Sausage and Veggie Soup
2 links of swedish sausage
1 box of chicken stock
1 T olive oil
3 potatoes cubed
2 carrots chopped
1 onion cut into pieces
3 celery cut into pieces (make all veggies almost the same side-so they cook evenly)
1 green pepper cut into pieces
1 T kosher salt
1 tsp ground pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
2 bay leaves (remove after cooking)
1/2 tsp rosemary
1 T parsley
a dash of cayenne pepper (only if you are like Tony and like it spicy)
Cut all veggies, heat T of oil in pan, saute' all veggies in oil for 8 minutes, add spices, add chicken stock, bring to a simmer, cut swedish sausage into bite size pieces, add sausage to soup, simmer for 15-20 minutes until veggies are tender. Serve with some yummy crunchy sourdough bread.
