Yay!!!! I've been waiting for this . I'm starving. That chicken and rice looks sooooo good. And, love love love the sunflower garden. Looks like Kansas.

Had a craving for @HungryChris' marinated mushrooms so got a jar of those going a couple days ago Annnnnnd it's that time of year again! Crock of pickles started day before yesterday.

Yes! I just bookmarked it and I need to write it down just in case it disappears off the internet.

Awww that's so nice of you!!! I'd shove some through the computer screen to you if it was possible!

Well, this won't seem huge but since trying not to eat many carbs, we haven't had bread in forever. I've tried several different keto bread recipes and haven't like them. We both reallllllly wanted venison burgers done on the grill--also have some of the first ripe tomatoes from the garden-- so I searched again for a new recipe for buns. Found one! Is it as good as my homemade bread. No. Is it the closest to bread that I've made. YES. It worked and Ronnie and I were so impressed. Cherry galette for dessert. I also have homemade strawberry ice cream but was too pooped to make it--that's for tonight

Been a while. Rained a ton last month and kinda stunted the garden. I think we got like 16" in a little over 2 weeks. Didn't stunt the weeds, though sigh lol. Still trying hard to eat keto-sh friendly. Nice to have our garden squash--the stuff from the grocery store just isn't the same. Pizza boats and salad Wings, broccoli salad and @Jaymessquash Big salad night Tuna melts and salad Some excellent choice steaks, asparagus salad and squash Larb with drunken noodles and edamame Ronnie got some lovely chicken gizzards from the Asian Market--so clean and nice. Fried and pressure cooked with ...wait for it...a salad Misfits had Cornish game hens. They are GOOD. Nice and juicy. R Rubbed a mix of butter, garlic, salt, pepper and Italian herbs under the skin. Roasted with cukes and tomatoes from the garden and the last of the asparagus. Also made a little gravy using Xanthan gum.

Happy Independence Day!!! I didn't want to start a new thread (again) and I know it's late--since today's the day. But, anyone making something special? I don't know what we're having yet. Fried chicken? Ronnie got some niiiiice choice filets.....BBQ beef?

Nice!

Good to know! I'll get a pot going!

I'll hang mine along with you. I could lay in bed for a week, get up, and still not have the ambition to do all of that.

Those tomatoes look like they taste like tomatoes.

WOW! I volunteer to be your sherpa next time even though I think that hike would kill me 🤣

I'm disappointed in you 🤣

The search here is tricky IMO.

Just roll them, freeze them and then cook from frozen @FauxPas Here is a little tutorial I did with a link to a recipe I loosely follow

I'm putting that fridge on my dream list. I LOVE the amount of space. Ronnie said I'd have it full of jars of "crap" that would sit in there until the end of time. He's prolly right 🤣

OMG that's the biggest fridge in the universe! What brand is that? Could we maybe see the inside? I'd LOVE to have one like that. I'd have to build a bigger kitchen though.......

So glad you're home and back on your feet! I love red velvet cake.

Usually around 40. Last summer a few never made any tomatoes. Beautiful plants but no fruit. Maybe that will happen again 🤣

Niman Ranch smoked bacon breakfast sausage

Jalapeño cheese sausages and peppers with fries, sauerkraut and deviled eggs Fried chicken and collards from the garden I wanted Shakshuka but Ronnie doesn't care for it so I made a small one for me--I figured he'd end up eating some so I did three eggs. He made poached eggs for himself and then stole one of mine. He still claims not to like it lol sigh.

Took some pictures in the garden this morning. Most everything is doing ok so far. Fingers crossed. Green beans--the rabbits have been nipping them off 😠 Yellow squash and zucchinis Tomatoes. We have over 60 plants in the ground 😮. My mom took a few but no one else wanted any and I couldn't bear to just let them die. So, most of them are in the main garden and the rest are in the smaller north garden. I may be in deep trouble. If I go missing check under the piles of tomatoes in the kitchen. Peppers--pepperoncini, banana, jalapeno, bell Onions Cucumbers Watermelons and cantaloupes not pictured

I've never heard of it. Looks interesting. I like that you can see what they offer--except you can't see the prices which I don't like.

I think it is equivalent--the gyoza looks too pretty to eat! (but what I wouldn't give for that pan of goodness right now. I'm sick of low/no-carbing. I WANT PASTA)

To clarify I know that your beloved husband is not with us...I was just trying to be delicate.
