Sausage, Potato Pasta

My friend made this for us when she invited us over for dinner once. It is seriously so good. I think the potatoes are what set this dish apart from other dishes. The combination of all the ingredients is perfect. When I asked her for the recipe, so said you put in a little of this and a little of that but she didn't have an exact recipe. I have a hard time with out a precise recipe but this one isn't too hard to figure out.

Sausage, Potato Pasta

1 lb. sausage
Rosemary
3-4 potatoes, cubed
Penne noodles
Whipping Cream

Brown the sausage with a little of the rosemary. Add the potatoes with a little rosemary and cook for a few minutes. Turn heat to low, add the cream and bring to a boil. Let boil softly until potatoes are done. Meanwhile cook your penne pasta according to package directions. When noodles and sauce are done, mix together and serve.

Peachy Keen Bars

I just bought a bushel of peaches from the fruit stands in Willard, UT. There is nothing better than a fresh peach. These peaches were so good. I canned 3 batches of peaches and then decided to try this peach dessert that I found on pinterest. It is really good by itself or with some vanilla ice cream.
