Good Morning Sunshine!
Hopefully it's gonna be a nice sunny day as opposed to sun, dark clouds, sun, rain, wet, wet, gloomy. Too much wanting me, I know ππ«£ππ«£
I saw new plants on the peony that I just planted the bare root a month ago, so am hoping for hot sunny day, please! Would be nice for those new plants to soak up a lot of sunny days before Autumn is officially here. Yep, I said officially as the sign is already here. My plum tree leaves always the 1st turning reddish whenever Autumn is approaching, and I've been noticing a couple of the leaves turning red last week π§
Anyhoo!
This following dish is my oldest's and mine as well, favorite. Normally I don't add white fungus as years before, the boys didn't like the texture. The other day, I tried again with white fungus and my oldest finally said it's his favorite, the white fungus, in the sauce, he said ππππ
