Since my last post over a year ago, we have been busy!
We just dove into the renovation - the "new" part of the house has been removed and we are working on the addition.
We adopted another dog, Walter!
We adopted 2 miniature Mediterranean donkeys, 2 Nigerian dwarf goats, and some chickens (and roosters!).
Lots coming...

3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons total of Sriracha & sweet chili sauce - depending on your heat preference.

Chicken
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tsp ginger (I keep a jar of minced ginger in the fridge)
