Dinner spinach/cheese tortellini, chopped celery, chopped cabbage, diced
fire roasted tomatoes, cheese sauce, spinach:
First I sauteéd the cabbage and celery with olive oil and garlic salt, then
added the drained tomatoes, spinach on top, lid on and let heat thoroughly.
In went the cheese sauce...
The tortellini cooked and in it went along with bacon crumbles.
SUPER GOOD!!!!!! That and a glass of wine. Pefect!
I also cooked, in the casserole Crock*Pot, some yams for later..

National Pistachio Day
National Pistachio Day is a nutty day. You can celebrate National Pistachio
Day by eating them, and learning more about them. We're going to help with the
learning part........ read on.
Nutty Pistachio Facts:
Pistachios grow on trees. They are native to the Middle East.
Its a long wait to get the first nut. A pistachio tree takes 7-10 years to
mature.
California is the major producer in the U.S.
Pistachios are harvested in September by machines that shake the trees. It
less than a minute.
The red dye is added to the nuts is only due to consumer demand for the
color.
Its open hull is unique. The nut is ripe when the hull splits open.
People in the Middle East call it the "smiling nut" and in China its called
the "happy nut".
Pistachios are nutritious, so eat them up!
Celebrate today by eating Pistachios. They are great plain as a snack, in
ice cream, and in a wide range of
desserts.
