Peach Upside Down Cake We’ve spent the last month eating one crate of barely ripe peaches. While still under ripe, we carefully washed and dried each peach. We placed one layer of peaches back in the crate. And, we covered them lightly with a flour sack towel. The […]
If you’d like to make a version of Thai iced tea without Number One Brand tea or Pantai tea (that’s the one with the yellow and blue label), it’s quite easy. It just won’t have the questionable food coloring. And, in my book, that’s a plus not a minus.

Picked on Saturday, Jun 14, 2014 With the stem on, these ripen beautifully on the counter. Just be sure that they’re close to […]
The First Bowl Of Tomatoes For 2014 Almost a dozen Sun Gold cherry tomatoes, 4 Juliets, a small handful of Tami G’s, and one Lemon Boy (slightly speckled, top right in the back, about the size of a small plum). The day of the photo the Lemon Boy […] |
