This recipe has been repeated over and over in our This recipe has been repeated over and over in our kitchen this year. The trick is to use yellow potatoes, their smooth and buttery texture add SO much to this dish. In the summer I like to wrap the potatoes in foil and put them on the grill, and when the grill isn’t being used, I put them in a roaster, cover, and toss them into the oven to bake. Ingredients: - 4-6 yellow potatoes, washed and cut into wedges - 1 red & 1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and cubed - 1 large onion, diced - healthy drizzle of olive oil - salt & black pepper to taste (be generous) Mix together all of the ingredients and roast covered in a preheated oven @375f or on a medium high grill for about 25-30 minutes or until til potatoes are just tender

Japanese Golden Curry This is not a recipe but jus Japanese Golden Curry This is not a recipe but just my process of making Japanese golden curry using the store-bought S&B brand spice packet. This dish was introduced to me by my brother and it’s a hit every time, I like to eat it served over white rice. - sauté cubed chicken for 5-6 minutes on high heat until chicken starts to lightly brown - add the bell peppers, onions and carrots and sauce 2 more minutes - add boiling water (enough to cover all the ingredients) and break in the packet spice cubes -lower heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 15 minutes or until meat is cooked through and vegetables are tender

Have you worked with polymer clay before? What typ Have you worked with polymer clay before? What types of things have you made or seen made out of polymer? I’m trying my hand at this new craft that I’ve been thinking of starting for years now. These earrings are the very first things that I’ve made with polymer. I’ve seen so many really interesting polymer technique videos online and I want to try them all but have NO clue what I’m going to do with all the things I’d like to try and make, or how to narrow it down. I’m open to any ideas & suggestions. #polymerclay #polymerearrings #newcraft
