  1. Sometimes I end up doing the middle part the other direction. Sometimes I get Euro and just tear. I usually re-toast a bit in toaster oven, I use a course serrated knife. Not a neat freak so rustic works for me.
  2. @Smithy Makes sense. I just started some dough so I may hold off or try the recipe as an alternate bread item with a funky runny cheese I think. Gonna use that free ride from Uber to peruse TJ

    @weinoo feeling very duck deprived, I like the simple prep. The Coleman Andrews book is great. I have it somewhere...

    Only ever seen that with olives. Rberries = kinda messy. Saw dad with his kids in the canyon once picking them. it was a Jackson Pollock moment.
  5. Well the sprouts date ya I left the dog with my kid in a canyon once when he sprained ankle (the kid)- got back with help and dog was chowing down on "windfall avos". Supposedly not good for canines but he was a big dog.
  6. And I regularly took avocado toast to school at age 5 for lunch (I am 62)
  7. Yeast is on the way but meanwhile David Lebovitz's whole grain soda bread was whispering in my ear. Has anyone made it? No lemons I can reach - picker MIA, - lots of oranges. Is that acidic enough? Plan on craisins v. raisins (none here). Only "milk" I have is unsweetened almond milk. There is some cottage cheese I could buzz. Thoughts? https://www.davidlebovitz.com/whole-wheat-wholewheat-irish-wholegrain-soda-bread/

    That chard is speaking loudly to me I recall a young boy down the street who told me his grammy grew it and he loved it with "a bit of butter".

    Fishmongers! Treasures. More valued than boyfriends. My first taught me to debone trout. A life lesson I still use 40 or so years later,
  15. Should you not hear from me soon I have fallen in the library trying to pull out old Sunsets...
  16. Ended up at Bristol Farms just now. Before I could pronounce the "Y" in yeast she hook her head -NO!
  17. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. Seeds are warriors. Tom always nails it. With the zip bag - be vigilant about humidity - a tiny crack open , may be needed. Show what happens

    Kudos to dh and his grill skill. Sawdust" is the descriptor that comes to mind with turkey.
  20. Host's note: this topic began as a side discussion in Salad Books. I find that the older books and magazines show us that we are not "all that" on the innovation front. Old Sunsets from the 70's fit into today as an example
  21. That is really nice collection!

    Good they have strong opinions. I was so taken when mine (29 the other day) told his kindergarten teacher lobster was his favorite food. Very integrated community but nobody else chose that!
