Been fussing over the #BrusselsSprouts for weeks to have some of harvestable size for Thanksgiving because I planted late…. improvising a cold frame, watering through a freak drought, keeping cabbage moth caterpillars and aphids away. And today I get to harvest these delicious marbles!
#vegetableGardening is always a gamble. “Will the stars align and I will get to eat something from this effort?” Today the answer is YES

Crowd pleaser dessert: gingerbread (the cake kind) served with warm chunky applesauce and whipped cream and a small glass of good whiskey

Easy and tastes like happiness.

It’s a late summer just eat whatever veggies we are freezing kind of dinner. #vegetable #gardening #SeasonalEating

Having family over (outdoors, because #CovidIsNotOver ): assorted types of garden cuke pickles and garden melon for starters, tossed salad entirely from garden, roasted garden eggplant stuffed ravioli with garden basil pesto sauce, and local orchard nectarine/blueberry galette. #seasonalEating #Gardening #zone7a

Feeding people makes me happy.

I like making things and thinking about things.

I don’t mean to make light of Brexit-induced food shortages, but I think we should all go back to eating seasonally, and not expect fresh tomatoes and other summer crops in February in the Northern Hemisphere. It takes an extraordinary amount of energy, ingenuity, and other resources to achieve, and only profit and habit justify such a squandering. #FoodDistribution #SeasonalEating

In season and available now in the #sfbay is the amazing Cherimoya aka the Custard Apple. A delightful creamy fruit grown in our #foodshed it is a brilliant brrakfast or dessert on its own but can also be made into sorbet or added to salads and smoothies to show off its tropical flavor. #localvore #locavore #cherimoya #custardapple #seasonaleating #seasonality #shoplocal #eatlocal #eatfreshandlocal #farmersmarket
