Happy Father's day!!



Happy Father's day Scott!!  We celebrated father's day with a vegan meal for Scott. He would love to go vegan. But I am just not that good of a cook. Jessie found this recipe that was vegan so we made it for him. Sooooo yummy and easy. Scott would also love to give up sugar, but that is also a hard thing to do. So what do we give him for father's day. SUGAR!  He also got other gifts that he did ask for. 

What are some of the things that we love about Scott.....
He is a hard worker and takes good care of us. 
He loves to play with us and go on vacation.
He has a lot of wisdom and loves to teach his children.
He loves being with the family and going to the cabin. 
We are so blessed to have him as our father and husband. 

Lucky us!!!! 


Linguine with Uncooked Tomato, Arugula, and Olive Sauce
1 garlic clove, minced and mashed to a paste with 1/4 teaspoon salt

4 fresh plum tomatoes, chopped
1 bunch of arugula, coarse stems discarded and the leaves washed well, spun dry, and chopped coarse (about 1 cup)
6 Kalamata or other brine-cured black olives, pitted and chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, or to taste
1/2 pound linguine

In a large bowl stir together the garlic paste, the tomatoes, the arugula, the olives, the oil, the vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste and let the mixture marinate for 20 minutes. In a large saucepan of boiling salted water cook the linguine for 10 minutes, or until it is al dente, drain it, and while it is still hot, toss it with the sauce. Serve the pasta warm or at room temperature
