Any problems? Please let me know.  This will do for now, I still have a few glitches to iron out, and it’s not really the template I wanted.  That one needs some more intensive tweaking, and I hate to have my blog just sitting here not looking great, hence the […]

Well, yesterday’s veg day wasn’t so good.  I started off the day by making a curry for lunch.  The recipe was from The Flexitarian Table by Peter Berley, and was a recipe for Potato and Rhubarb Curry.  I was all excited to use my rhubarb in a savory manner, and […]

Before I get to today’s post, I would be remiss in if I failed to mention that Abigail is a star this week for my article over at Kids Cuisine. In the first of many articles to come, I let Abigail have total control over choosing a recipe and making […]

This past Sunday for Sunday Company Dinner I made fajitas.  I decided to use pork as my base and gave it a marinade that I whipped together from lime juice, orange juice, olive oil, cilantro, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, cumin and chili powder.  I didn’t really follow a recipe, just threw […]

I’ve never grown spinach before, so I wasn’t sure how big to let it get before picking it.  I knew I could pick it as baby spinach, but hey, why not let it get larger? We have no problems with full size spinach.  Apparently, it grows quickly, because I was […]

It isn’t very often that something I make is this good.  And by “this good” I mean a roll your eyes back into your head sort of good, the type of thing that makes you moan and groan and mutter to yourself about how delicious it is.  The sort of […]

I have some progress to report as I’ve finally been able to plant the two established beds fully. About a month ago or so I planted the peas, lettuce and some herbs, as well as the chard and beets, but the rest needed to wait for warmer temperatures. Then yesterday […]

We just wrapped up a lovely weekend with Andy’s parents visiting us from Buffalo, New York.  The kids are always busy keeping their Grammy and Grandpa busy, and it seems like the visit just begins when it’s suddenly over.  So one of the things I tried to do this weekend […]

Specifically, the roasted veggie craving. First, let me state for the record that if I had anticipated wanting roasted veggies twice in one day I would have just roasted off a bunch at once and set the rest in the fridge for later.  As it turned out, that was okay, […]
