That is super amazing!!! Very scary.

KAY, you're killing me. All looks sooooo goooooooooood.

So pretty!!!

Beautiful carrots! I'd pressure steam for 5 mins and natural release for 10--that way you can check and see if they are done enough.

Pepperoni pizza and salad

The food at the shawarma place has me wishing for it.

It would be wonderful as an appetizer IMO. You could cut it into squares and people could put it in their hand on a napkin. I can't think of a reason why it wouldn't meet their requirements.

BTW, it's National Chocolate Day here in the states....so Happy NCD!!!!

I learn something new here every day. Thank you!

This green bean mushroom tart with blue cheese and crispy shallots is excellent. I always make this when I make a mini Thanksgiving dinner for just the two of us (I don't get to have the exact things that I like when we go to the in-law's ...which is fine because I don't want to host so that means I don't get to choose the menu lol). Anyway, it's easy and it tastes great at room temperature.

I think this is the first time I've ever made stew with beef and not venison. Hit the spot on a chilly fall evening. But, I think I prefer venison.

Question: What is a MOF? Oh those fox chocolates and the chocolate flower bouquets are killer!

Want.

Kinda like Willy Wonka's factory

Shrimp cocktail and then some scallops with the very last zucchini found lurking in the garden.

Franci, I am so happy for you!!!!!

Last pick of the season. Supposed to be 31F tonight and 21F tomorrow. I am ready for cold weather. I want snow!! Those are the stems off of my artichoke plants there on the right that never made an artichoke because the growing season isn't conducive here....I knew that when I planted them, but thought I'd try anyway. Over here dcarch cooked them in a pressure cooker so I thought I'd follow suit.

How long did you go in your pressure cooker? I take it that the leaves are not very good to eat? Here's a pic of mine that I just picked. Just in time, too. Supposed to freeze tonight. Thanks for your help!

Yep, I'm going with frog legs. YUM

I know, right? I could have spent her whole vacation time just walking around in that store.

Glad to have you!!!

I can't find really great, hot horseradish around here (central Kansas). The stuff they sell at the grocery store is so tame that they might as well call it mayonnaise. This is my favorite and I can only order it online. It is HOT and has a great flavor.

@dcarch You never cease to amaze me. My plants look very similar to yours so I think I could eat mine too!! I am begging you to tell me how you cooked them. I think your ratatouille looks wonderful! Off my cooking game a bit. Nothing sounds good. Kielbasa and tater tots Chicken gizzards, taters and hominy

WOW. I am so glad I clicked on this. I had no idea about places such as this. A table built specifically for the dishes the chef serves? Amazing. The sunflower with the scallop is beautiful. Thank you for taking the time to share with us. And how cool is it that the chef wrote you a note?!!!

O M G Norm...those biscuits look AMAZING. I am so biscuit challenged. Is the recipe on your blog? I realize that the flour makes a difference. I will have to find some.
