- Thanks for stopping by today friends! Since we are all confined to our homes due to this Pandemic, we're all trying to find creative ways to use whatever we have in our pantry. Certainly, if you don't have tuna, try chicken. No fresh parsley or rosemary? Use what you have. Maybe dried parsley, oregano or basil. Red wine vinegar could be used in place of lemon juice. I wish you all good health and happiness as we journey through this difficult time. Journey On! Hugs and much love from me, Karen, TJG
