Ideas and how to's on cooking, creating and making the world a better place
Up above, the first butterfly of the season. I have always liked bugs. They are very interesting, and as most things have their pros and cons. Especially in the garden. Here are some good pictures I took of the my little companions. I hope you enjoy!
Squash? Pancake? Lemony fresh? HECK YEA!
Overall, these tasty treats will take you 30 minutes and be a fun surprise for your guests. “You just ate vegetables and didn’t even know it!” you can shout. Also a good trick for finiky eaters and kids.
My first garden harvest in Greenfield! I was happy that I got a little one, I was worried I would not get a harvest at all. It was time to harvest because the frost was threatening to come in, and you have to get all these plants in before the frost. My husband is so happy because the allergies that he is suffering from will go away. Pollen thy eternal enemy.
Read on for some pictures and thoughts from this year. Hope you enjoy!
So I know we have a skunk. I saw an adult crossing the road and I thought to myself, “Self, your garden is screwed!” I was not wrong, I saw most of my sweet corn crop go in a night.

In my mom’s garden, we always got plenty of zucchini each summer. Turns out my garden does the same thing. That fresh zucchini flavor brightens up these biscuits, and adds moisture, keeping them from drying out. If you didn’t grow your own this year, stop by your local farm stand, and then enjoy these zucchini biscuits with friends and family.

It’s great for those days where you want a salad, and you want to be warm.
