Oldiesmann: I'm not aware of any Jenny. Not sure why activity has died down on this site so much though 2023-06-12, 00:06:36

JennyW: Also, does anyone know other photo sharing sites that are Christian? 2023-05-16, 08:47:03

JennyW: Hello Everyone! I really miss activity on this site. I've been discouraged by photography sites where you have to sort through so much explicit content in order to see photos that truly glorify God. I'd love to see this site pick up again. 2023-05-16, 08:46:36

1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 lb fresh mushrooms, sliced

1 clove garlic, minced
3 cups tomatoes, fresh, peeled, cut up (or 1 1/2 lb canned, whole, cut up*)
1 tsp dried sage
1 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp dried oregano
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 bay leaf, crumbled
4 cups elbow macaroni, cooked

*If using canned tomatoes, sodium content will be higher. Try no-salt-added canned tomatoes to keep sodium lower.

Kinda high in carbs for the diabetics. But fortunately I am not a diabetic. This sound soooo good.
