Roasting

It’s been much less snowy than usual this Winter. I mean, we’ve had snow, but typically the Winters up here have us buried in feet of it for a few months. So far it’s been mild and I can’t say I’m upset. For me it’s the perfect amount right now because I’ve really enjoyed being able to drive and not have the snow to deal with. Haha, the guys in my family on the other hand, they love to drive in it. Just between us, they’re all total kids at heart when it snows and they’ll do the best they can to make everyone in the car nervous by showing-off  and slipping and sliding on purpose. My dad’s been complaining this past week that “Winter’s over!” because the temp has been really warm for January. But anyway, I’m enjoying that there’s white on the ground but that it’s been staying off the roads for me. As for this quick side dish, I really enjoy using all the most colorful (antioxidant filled) veggies. Of course, this might just be me personally. You probably already know that there are endless possibilities to preparing veggies but sometimes the plain old basics are the best.
