gotta love thatcher.

i truly had given up on my winter garden. i was sure the summer corn had sucked up all the nutrients from the soil. so i gave up and ignored it for a month and next thing i knew we had broccoli! cauliflower and cabbage! now lets just see if it grows past this miniature stage and i can cook some fabulous soups and gratins.

That looks yummy. Isn’t it funny, just when you give up on gardens they always surprise you!

i recently gave up on my way too infrequently updated food blog. so i’ll be posting my photo worthy kitchen accomplishments here. our family gave up on a home cooked thanksgiving years ago when i offered to do it and then got so behind in my editing that cooking it was going to send me over the edge. we went out that year and had the best time. besides the fact that my family is super traditional and if were in charge things would get way too creative. so, we go out.
i love eating the traditional stuff just hate wasting my time cooking it. i however, must have self made homemade dessert. chocolate pecan pie though is my favorite! and totally worth the very little time it takes. one of my very few super non gourmet recipes. nothing fancy here but so good. email me if you want the recipe.

Heirloom tomatoes. They make me look forward to the next fall the moment they are gone.
