Artichokes With Lemon & Olive Oil

im on an artichoke kick. i made some lemon artichokes that were to DIE for.

here is the recipe:
4 artichokees, trimmed
1 onion, sliced
2 scallions, sliced
1 lemon, juiced and sliced
4 tbsp olive oil
1/2 c water
fresh thyme
put the artichokes in a big pot. add the onion, scallions, juice from the lemon, the lemon slices and water. pour a tbsp of olive oil on each artichoke. cover and simmer 35 mins.
add the thyme and simmer 20 mins more or until artichokes are tender.
season with salt and pepper.

that was an awesome answer, amanda! thanks! i think my biggest fear is not the pain of running (although that IS a fear)....what really stops me is being scared that i'll hurt myself. im only 5'2" so 249 lb is really big. but i think you're right. i just have to do it and take it slowwww. thanks again!

Thanks for popping by my blog. Wonderful to have you and thank you for the compliment. You're doing very well also :)

I have been waiting and waiting to try avacadoes but I'm pretty picky sometimes and stubborn but they ARE on sale this week... So I might just have to pick some up. They do look tasty.
