I went to the woods and found some mushrooms. Came home and turned them into soup with leftover chicken and garlic scapes. My soup is so good.

All of my pasta vegetables were found or grown. Fiddlehead ferns, ramps, small oyster mushrooms, and asparagus. I am so pleased.

It is one of the best of nights. Also, important to share with your sweetie. Because there is enough garlic to hurt a vampire (complementary).

Oh boy does he. This was from the weekend.

I made this for dinner tonight with frozen hen of the wood mushrooms. Then plopped some frozen meatballs on top. So let’s all ignore those. The farro was so good tonight. It was like a farrotto, I even took the time to add liquid correctly and let it stir for over an hour ish.

A big red bowl. The bottom has a creamy mix of farro, mushrooms, with chives sprinkled over. Topped with generic meatballs.

I had to erase this. But I checked David for a replacement pod.

Barred owl has been visiting the tree in front of our house. Nothing to see in this video but what a noise.

I have been here before but it was fun to take David and watch him spin in circles. So many things we love to eat. We did make it home but basically unloaded and started opening all the snacks right away.

A counter full of foods. Two kinds of bread, olives, pickled veggies, stuffed eggplants, beef salami and mortadella, tabbouleh, feta, babaganoush, a lemon, a red onion. And David’s hand grabbing food off a plate.

Two masculine teenagers walk on a paved path in the sunshine. Surrounded by mostly bare trees.

Four small scarlet cup mushrooms rise out of the dirt, twigs and small green leaves on the ground. The mushrooms are pale outside and the interior is very bright red.

I made agedashi tofu! It is exactly what I wanted. I love gaining this skill.

I’m working on a bar recipe. There is little so satisfying as a well creamed butter, sugar, egg mixture. I just love to see it hit the soft fluffy stage before you add the dry stuff.

A stainless steel stand mixer, mixing bowl and mixing whisk. On the whisk and in the bowl is a lovely light tan fluffy substance.

We had one last night!

I stood on the corner with my friends and others. It felt good. We had one person yell at us in anger. And hundreds of honks and waves and well wishes. Plus other people came over to join because they heard the honking. Now I am spent. :)

I have plans! I may despise my body and feel like it has betrayed me but, I have plans dammit.

This person is brand new and doing nothing but bad mouthing Nekima Levy Armstrong. I recommend the block button.

Today we went to a supermercado and bought more food than we might need. As we walked in we saw three large coolers and opened them. The farthest one had warm, fresh corn tortillas. They are so good.
