You stuff the mushrooms- like the large portabella with a stuffing and baked, even the little mushrooms, could be bite sized baked stuffed mushrooms. I also like portabella mushrooms soaked in balsamic vinegar and grilled, so good.

I sure do, I eat a half pound of some kind of mushrooms every day. Today I am making vegetarian hot Tamales, just waiting for the filling to cool now it tastes delicious. I like all kinds of mushrooms they boost immunity too

😋😋😋😋😋😋

Jimi, bravo. Can you share the recipe, or are you one who just keeps adding a little of this, a little of that, until it tastes right, and then you have nothing written down, so you can never make it again? I do that all the time unfortunately.

What did you use for the shell?

No I used a recipe and only changed it with one addition to the mushroom/meat sauce, NO real meat in it though, I'll dig the recipe up and post it in the cook thread soon ;)

The outter dough? I used some (can't figure out how to spell it) but it's some kinda Mexican, looks like cornmeal, but I got it at the health food store here. I know I shouldn't have it but I love tamales and hadn't had one for over 8 years:facepalm:

Did you have a wonderful feast today, I seen your pea dish, it looked so delicious I love peas, made really want some.

Thank you Jimi. I enjoyed having the whole day off from work, but holidays are kind of a mixed bag. You want to love your loved ones, but they will rub you the wrong way, and the longer you're around them, the more they rub. I find I can love people better by holding them close to my heart at a distance, if that makes sense, wanting the best for them, wishing them well, but staying away from them.

How was your feast day? Did you have your tamales, or were those for yesterday only?

There is nothing easier to make than my dual pea dish. I hope you'll enjoy trying it sometime.

I have another Thanksgiving tomorrow evening with a dear friend who wants me to come and bless her home she just moved into, so I'm planning a variation of the bread, salt and wine blessing from the movie "It's a Wonderful Life", which I found so moving when I first saw it.

Desert sky

Look to the sky


Look at the sky
It's full of stars
Far is the sky
A thousand stars that go by
look at me
I'm going alone too
I didn't ask to suffer
And I didn't ask to love you
Look at a falling star in the sky
tracing the blue
Big is the sky
an abyss of light
If big is the sky
Greater is my love
And I see the endless sky
that exists in your eyes
