Autumn Harvest 2016
It takes a lot of time to process, cook and freeze all this food, but I am very grateful for it all.
Food
Recipe: Crockpot Butternut Squash, Apples, and Cranberries
This is delicious and so uncomplicated, you’ll be glad to have tried it!
Book Review: Pollan Family Table Cookbook
I spent some time over the weekend reading this cookbook, and trying the recipes, and got some great ideas from it. The recipes are easy to follow, without hard to find ingredients, and taste good.
What to Do With All This Eggplant!
My husband grew all this eggplant, and more. With all this at once, we had to process it for the freezer, because eggplant is good only a few days after it is picked.
Recipe: Peppers Stuffed with Quinoa and Black Beans
For the beautiful peppers shown below that my husband grew, I wanted a mild stuffed pepper recipe that was also quick and simple to put together.
My Husband and the New Pond Farm Harvest Dinner
I’m so grateful such a wonderful place as New Pond Farm exists, and I’m proud of all my husband’s hard work that helped make this supportive event a success!
Food at the Islesford Dock
They have built something wonderful here. They pampered us with spicy ginger brew, appetizers, and three delicious meals a day.
Homegrown Vegetables
There have been lots of beans, broccoli, eggplant, pears, peppers, carrots, cucumbers, zucchini, cantaloupe, onions, and absolutely enormous butternut squash.
Amazing Tomato Harvest
Each season we lose more of our front yard to this project, but these photos show that it is worth it!
Common Good Soup Kitchen
I thought this was a great idea of a way to finance a soup kitchen! They make popovers and oatmeal for tourists and residents in the mornings in the summer and finance free food for the less fortunate through the cold months of the year.
Food in Maine
We had some really good food in Maine. Above, you can see some of the wild blueberries we picked along the trail.
Recipe: Chickpea Croquettes with Tjatjiki
I hope you give this delicious summer meal a try; it is packed with plant based protein and crowd appeal.
Food and Fun From Our Holiday Weekend
It seemed like we did a whole lot of eating this weekend, but were surrounded by friends of all varieties from several different corners of our life, as well as beautiful weather and each other. I am very grateful.
Recipe: Kohlrabi Slaw
Never had kohlrabi, or have been wanting to, but didn’t know what to do with it? Give this a try.
Recipe: Mustard Green and Veggie Sauté with Walnuts
Give mustard greens a try. You’ll be glad you did!
Recipe: David’s Fabulous Salad Dressing
It is not often people cook food for me that is as delicious or better than my own. This was really a treat and I wanted to be able to replicate it so I asked for the recipe.
Recipe: Fennel Walnut Side Dish
I have tried many fennel recipes without finding many I like. This one is both simple and good.
