Sorta like going on a cruise without all that dumb water. Not that I've ever been on a cruise. But I have seen water.
And a boat.
Not that I was on the boat on the water at the same time.
And speaking of water..great segue huh?! { se·gue [sé gwày, sáy gwày]
vi (past and past participle se·gued, present participle se·gue·ing, 3rd person present singular se·gues
1. move smoothly: to make a smooth, almost imperceptible transition from one state, situation, or subject to another
segued into a discussion of the playoffs without missing a beat }
Gotta love an on-line dictionary, huh?
And, speaking about penguins..you know..with the water??..this is for Emily:
Oh, OK, and this one is for my 2 sons-in-law...fathers of my 3 grand-girlies..
And now, the recipe for the Sweet Potato Black Bean Chili I've been making...and eating..and loving..
Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili
via eat me, delicious, adapted from The Clueless Vegetarian
Serves 3-4 as a meal.
1 tbsp vegetable oil
2 medium onions, chopped
1 tbsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1 cup vegetable broth
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 28-oz (796mL) cans diced tomatoes
2 19-oz (540mL) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp crumbled dried oregano
Heat the oil in a large saucepan* or Dutch oven. Add the onions and cook, stirring, over medium heat until the onions are soft - about 5 minutes. Add the chili powder and the cumin and cook for another minute or so. Add the vegetable broth and the cubed sweet potatoes, reduce the heat to low and cook, covered, until the potatoes are almost tender - about 10 minutes.
Add the tomatoes with all the juice from the can, the beans, salt, and oregano. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then let simmer until the potatoes are completely tender - about 20 minutes.
*Go for the Dutch oven if you can, unless your saucepan is really very large.
So, if you're still awake and actually reading this..what are you doing? It's a huge waste of time..
