That’s just what I picked this morning. I am getting this much every day or two. I have started freezing some, but am in the mood to make something fun with them. Here’s a look back on strawberry recipes past… Strawberry Frozen Fruit Pop (definitely making these!) Big Reds – Strawberry Muffins Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp for…

Wheat Berries with Asparagus, Kale, Peas, Feta and Fried Egg.
Yes, it’s that time again… Kale bouquets! If you are new to my blog, let me explain… I harvest my kale in the morning when it is cool and stick the leaves in a vase or glass of water to keep the kale fresh and crisp. And, it is fun to look at in my…
Kale Salad with Gouda
The kale in my garden is ready for first harvest! As you can see I am growing two different types of kale, curly and siberian. The curly kale is still small, but the siberian has grown more quickly. I harvested enough to make a flavorful Caesar-type salad to have with our lasagna. The flavor was…

Along with the overnight steamed bread, I made some huevos haminados (Sephardic slow-roasted eggs). They are the silver packets you see in the bread. The egg whites turn a beautiful…
I am published in a cookbook…Yay!!!
My copy just arrived in the mail today… Thank you to the ladies of the Monday Morning Cooking Club for asking me for a recipe and then liking it enough to include in their latest cookbook “It’s always about the food.” When they asked if I could do a lamb recipe, I knew exactly what…
Slow Cooker Chicken Marrakesh
We became very well acquainted with our slow cooker during my campaign. A love-hate relationship developed. When a dish worked, it was wonderful. But there were many days when I threw in a whole lot of string spices only to end up with flavorless meat. I was so confused and disturbed. But, we studied the…
