Karey's Overflow

'Overflow' refers to me having a wide variety of things I do, from writing books, to daily living of a wonderful life, and art work.

Name: Karey
Location: Colorado, United States

I garden at 8000 feet, cook from scratch, needle felt, read books continually, study history and epistemology, write daily, contemplate spiritual theology, and pursue heirloom arts. I love to paint pictures of living beyond maintenance -- living creatively, discovering beauty in everyday ordinary things. I've been happily married to Monte, who is a geologist, for a long time and still very much in love, even after raising a family and building two houses. Our children are our best friends. Heather is newly married to Bill. Travis, a minister of the fine arts, is married to Sarah. And Dawson is in college. I naturally live first-hand and have recently realized that this is how we educated our children and ourselves. I love to learn about everything, teach, and work with my hands. I love my home, but my life has overflowed -- as a teacher, radio/conference/retreat speaker, author, and most recently as a MOPS mentor. Kareyswan.com is an ideal way for me to share my overflowing life with kindred spirits and those hungering to move beyond maintenance -- to be known by who they are, not just by what they do.

Salmon Patties

Since I'm on a recipe roll, I've been wanting to add this, which I made for supper Thursday. It's a great one for a quick-fix meal, along with a salad. For years I've made Tuna Patties, which is in my Hearth & Home cookbook, but I started playing with canned salmon and new recipes. So here's what I like the best:

Salmon Patties
1 6oz can salmon (preferring wild salmon), drained
1 egg
2 scallions, including the greens, finely chopped
1/2 tsp no-salt seasoning
1/2 tsp parsley
1/8 cup bread crumbs (mine of course are whole grain from my homemade left-over bread pieces)
1/8 cup mayonnaise

Form into two patties and dip in 1/8 cup flour to lightly coat. Pan fry 4-5 minutes per side in a well oiled skillet to brown well.

A Nice Dipping Sauce -
1 Tb mayonnaise and sour cream
sprinkle garlic pepper and pepper flakes (I buy a garlic pepper mix
grinder and then a chipotle seasoning mix)
1 tsp fresh lime juice (I always have a basket of limes and lemons on the counter in my kitchen)

I think we had these with broiled tomato halves. I love pesto sauce broiled on these; and sometimes just bread crumbs mixed with some olive oil, and even some parmesan cheese added.
