Sarah's Family

This is My sister Sarah's Family. Many of you know her and I thought it would be fun to show you a recent shot of her and her family. This was taken at Cami's baptism luncheon, so that's why Cami is in the picture with them. So there is Sarah, my beautiful sister, holding her new baby Micah, he is 1 year old now, and her husband Matthew. In the front is Hannah- she is Sarah's oldest who is now 7 and there's Cami in the middle, then there is Siona, Sarah's youngest daughter who is 3. Sarah is a hard working mother and I think she has a beautiful family. I'm so proud of you Sis!

We have a great family! I love being a mom. It's getting better and better the older they get. Sure I occasionally look longingly at someones sweet bundle of newbornness, but really I'm over it and enjoying every second (almost) of raising my kids. I love their unique personalities and I'm so grateful for their love and obedience...ha ha okay, I am grateful for their love and I long for their obedience. They are amazing little people, I am so blessed. It's fun and sometimes maddening to see me and Tom in them. being a parent is awesome and as far as I can tell it only gets better!

So What is Quinoa?

Quinoa, pronounced KEEN-wa, is a tiny grain grown in the Andes. There are 3 common varieties namely Red, White, and Black. To the Incas, quinoa was called "the mother grain" because it was a major source of protein for them. It actually contains all of the essential amino acids making it a complete protein. Pretty cool, huh?
The quinoa used in this recipe is rolled. Just like how oats are made into oatmeal. Usually you can only get it by mail order. The most common variety is the whole white quinoa found in heath food stores. It is good to add to soup, cooks like rice and makes a good pilaf, yummy as a hot breakfast cereal and there are many more uses.
