Different people have varied opinions of what good food is. To me it is basic dishes with fresh and local ingredients. Thanks to a growing movement of people who want to minimize the distance their produce travels from field to table, fresh ingredients are often available via farmers’ markets, CSAs, and farm stands. Websites such as Local Harvest make it easy to locate them and so much more. That said, on this summer day I discovered not one! but two!! tomatoes growing in my backyard and began picking up goodies from my CSA. Okay, I may also have dropped by a local bookstore to pick up a paperback copy of this book so I can make some jam this weekend (between all that pleasure reading I hope to do). Life and food are good today.
Check out my little tomatoes!! The cucumber plants are completely out of control. In a few weeks I may well need to begin giving cucumbers away. Photos of those plants forthcoming, going to have to get out the macro lens for those babies.
