Wow, time has a way of just running off on me. If we do this again next year, I’m going to need a co-blogger for sure. Okay, so it’s been a few (coughfourcough) weeks, what’s everyone been up to? Delicious, mouth-watering stuff, that’s what! Read on: In week five, Pat at Cooking from the Market gave us the recipe that’s going to the top of my list for next year’s strawberry season — deep fried strawberries. No, really. They sound like heaven wrapped in egg batter. She also let us in on how creating meals really works and shares one of her improvised dishes. Week six found Pat waxing poetic about raspberries and she also posted some great information about local craft beers. In week seven, local fruit continued to be in the limelight in the form of cherry salsa. And finally, in week eight, the blueberries make an...

Buy local! I know, accidents happen to the best of us. But this is the kind of thing that just reinforces my intention to know where my food comes from and how it is raised and processed. Plastic foam trays have always had a big ick-factor for me, anyway. But maybe that’s just me…
Or… cucumber yogurt dip with fresh herbs and no shrimp… whichever you prefer! The Recipe of the Week page is now updated with this very refreshing sounding dish.
Hi all — sorry for the delay in the roundup and the weekly recipe. Life… busy… well, I’m sure you know how it is. Both will be up before the end of the night! I may check out all the blogs and post the week 5 (June 22-28 ) roundup too, maybe tomorrow, if most everyone has written something. I can always edit and add to the roundups if needed. My timing is all wonky. ANYway… on to the week 4 roundup! Strawberries are mentioned once or twice… Pat at Cooking From the Market gets into late spring with sugar-snap peas and baby turnips. Eugenia at Culinaria Eugenius had a lot for us in week 4. First, some info about meadowfoam honey. Then, strawberry goodness. Finally, some inspiration for All. Those. GREENS. Potstickers! Over at Greenscraps, there were a few homegrown strawberries! (Very pretty. Strawberries in sunlight look like precious...
Blueberry season is approaching! This week’s recipe of the week is now posted and works great with either fresh or frozen berries.
Our recipe from last week, for old-fashioned strawberry preserves, has been a popular post… did anyone try it? We’d welcome comments on how it turned out. On to the roundup! Pat at Cooking from the Market was out of town at the beginning of week three and missed the farmers’ market, so she turned to her pantry and freezer for inspiration. Utilizing local, canned crab meat, Pat made some TASTY looking crab cakes… and she is oh, so kind to share her recipe. A side dish of Kohlrabi slaw rounded out the meal. Eugenia at Culinaria Eugenius has some great ideas for fava beans and provides a recipe for Couscous Topped with Favas and Caramelized Fennel and Onion. (Yum.) Over at Greenscraps, they took some inspiration from Michael Pollan and are enjoying the community. Jen at Jen’s Page reminds me that she’s been breastfeeding… and it doesn’t get much...
