Lady Apples
These little apples work beautifully to create a sweet ending to any meal. Their small size allows for a sweet treat without the unfortunate feeling of excess or over-indulgence. Any small apple can be used. But, these and small empire apples are two […]
Pink Berkeley Tie Dye? These were rich, juicy, and delicious. So, after eating these tomatoes, I’ve spent a little bit of time attempting to identify them. Is this a Pink Berkeley Tie Dye? Or…

Our tomato plants are some serious fighters this year. Somehow, we’ve managed to pick a couple handfuls of Sun Gold cherries a week for the last few weeks. In the back, those two beauties are courtesy of Whole Foods. They appear to be some type of red zebra tomato or […]

Quick To Shrivel
By the time the third sunchoke hit the plate, they’d shriveled even more.
Love them or hate them? Neither, but, they’re tasty. And, I’d make them again. Next time, I’d like to try some very young ones. […]
