Happy Solstice…Ode to the Garden
It is the longest day of the year! I love solstice and this year it is on a Friday. Our gang is celebrating with a grill out and that likely will include a bonfire by the end of the evening, that and a few bevies. Luckily for me, several of my friends are trained […]
Gardening has begun!
Things will look a little different in the back yard this year. When we decided to take the house off the market this winter, we decided to make the backyard a mini farm, minus the sheep. We have big plans that will take a while to accomplish, but the first phase of those […]

I plant a garden every year. Some years I have planted one at the community garden too. This year, since we took our house off the market, we are making some big plans : raised beds and a small green or hoop house. The garage/shed will come down and […]
Menu of the week or at least mid week
It’s about time I started doing this, so here is my first shot at it:
Monday: Turkish pide with meat and mozzarella (kind of like a folded up pizza with pita dough). We were in Chicago last weekend and my BF ordered this at a wonderful Turkish restaurant called Cousins. It looked soooo […]
phoeautiful, faux pho, love me my pho
Well, I had some lunch plans today. We were going to go get sushi. They got canceled. I still have my sushi craving, so decided to make some pho for lunch. Not sure how that worked as a substitute for raw fish wrapped in rice and seaweed, but it did. […]
beer beer beer beer, and Gluten free homebrew!
I have been a busy gardener lately. Lots of tomato canning, tomatillo canning and freezing beans. My eggplants still have a tinge of green around the purple, so to me that means not ripe. I am going to attempt to freeze those some how as they are always all ripe at once. […]
Farm markets, goat cheese, knitting and finally Wheatland is here!
Well this started out as a food, knitting and brewing blog and got a little side tracked by all things food. I just started a new knitting project. People all around me seem to be in baby having mode, so I have started a baby blanket for my good friends who think they […]
couscous gf style, some mango salsa and halibut
I have been missing the quickness and versatility of couscous lately. So I decided to try a few things. First, I broke up some GF spaghetti noodles and put them in the spice mill. Not gonna work. Second, I did a search for GF couscous online. There was one recipe […]
Organics continued
I felt as if I short shifted organics a bit yesterday and was writing a reply to one of my comments so long, that I figured I should add it to the blog instead.
In Michigan our seasons are shorter, so I of course have to rely on non local groceries, but I do make […]
