W3 Book Club-“Midnight at the Masquerade”: A Virtual Murder Party

Our W3 BookClub host, Jean, invited us to participate in quite the treat when she set up a murder mystery party through the Murder Mystery Company (see MMC https://www.murdermysteryco.com/zoom-parties/); so we all dressed up in our finest attire to play our parts for the virtual spectacle!

Tomato Porcini Sauce with Chicken and Pasta

Dried mushrooms make this dish special. They add a rich, earthy flavor. Serve the sauce with a very rugged pasta, such as rigatoni or penne.

Gardens

Pictures of gardens are lovely...but nothing is like getting your hands dirty to stir the memories in your mind. I had to get through the grief (and still will need more time) in order to see the potential of my gardens going forward. What was it Soren Kierkegard said? "Life can only be understood backwards, but it MUST be lived forwards."

Connecting with Mom

Quality uninterrupted time with my mom can be hard to come by so I periodically will establish some ‘mom time’… simply just me and her. I really appreciate the time of ditching the technology and engaging in some great conversations!

Butternut Squash Mac & Cheese

This indulgent dish is sure to be a family favorite. It is cheesy, comforting, and packed with squash! It tastes just as delicious and decadent as traditional mac and cheese, with the added bonus of vegetables. Get your kids involved pouring ingredients into the sauce, building the casserole, and sprinkling the cheese and breadcrumbs over top.
