It’s a great year for the kale in my garden! And that is a good thing, because two of my daughters are home, and they LOVE kale! They especially like when I make kale chips. I usually make them simply with some oil and sea salt, but decided to try a BBQ flavoring…it was such…

Rutabaga and Quinoa Patties
I will admit to having 2/3 of a rutabaga sitting in my fridge for a few weeks. Finding a light summer dish to make with rutabaga was no easy feat. It is much more at home in fall/winter foods. But, not only did I find a summer-time dish, it is vegetarian for one daughter and…
Toronto Blueberry Buns
Blueberries are one of my favorite fruits. I love their flavor, I love their color. In fact, look at the beautiful color of the filling for these buns… The filling was so pretty and so tasty, that my husband and I devoured all the extra filling immediately. He spread it on rice cakes, I ate…
Jalapeño Cheddar Challah Rolls
I have 4 jalapeño plants this year and all are very happy. I will definitely be replenishing my supply of pickled jalapeños. But I have a bunch of other plans for my peppers as well. The first is a Challah I have been waiting all year to make; I needed to wait for my plants to…
Peach-Blueberry Yogurt Cake
Yes, peaches again! But it is also blueberry season and, to me, peaches and blueberries are a great combination. The both taste and look beautiful together. We were going for our annual 4th of July celebration at Farmer Kim’s and I always bake something for it. This peach-blueberry cake worked great as a bring-along dessert….
Peach Jam
Peaches, peaches, peaches! I can’t help myself, if I pass a peach stand, I stop and buy some. It feels like they are around for so short a period, I have to indulge while they are here. But sometimes, I buy too much. I had 8 peaches that were threatening to over-ripen. So, I searched…
Peach Sangria with Cherries and Blueberries
It is peach and blueberry season here in Delaware! Time for a peach sangria! I am sitting here enjoying my glass of sangria, so this will not be a wordy post, just enough to share the fun… Last weekend I went to Harvest Ridge Winery to run my first 5k since last fall. I had injured myself the…
Tuscan Tuna with Beans & Kale
What came out of my garden today? Sage and Kale. What came out previously? Sun-dried tomatoes. Add cannellini beans, tuna, grape tomatoes, celery and olives and you have a bright, colorful and healthy dinner… There was some discussion in the family about the need for the celery – or lack of need. My daughter thought…
Strawberry Jam with Thyme
I found another thing to do with my strawberries! And with the thyme in my herb garden. This is a delicious jam I first tasted in Barcelona on my visit with my daughters. What a treat to make it at home! Strawberry Jam with Thyme from Le Pain Quotidien by Alain Coumont & Jean-Pierre Gabriel…
Strawberry time in the garden
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…
