Green tomatoes! Did you know you can pick them at the end of the season (like now!) and store them wrapped in paper in a cool dark place like the garage and they will slowly ripen in the months ahead? I have done this for years! Yes, some bite the bullet during that time but many ripen nicely! A homegrown tomato is huge treat in November or December when summer is a distant memory! #tomatoes🍅 #kitchengarden #organicgardening
The Bonnie Butter Cake is getting dressed up with rose scented geranium cooked in a sugar syrup and poured over raspberries hauled out of the back of the freezer! Topped with shelf stable Trader Joe’s whipping cream that was chilled and will be whipped to soft peaks! I challenged myself to create a basic all American cake today and make it feel special using only ingredients in the house or the garden! #cake #bakedfromscratch #herbs
Going vintage/retro this morning with a classic recipe from The Betty Crocker New Picture Cookbook. The Bonnie Butter Cake. As its name implies, this simple made from scratch cake is rich in butter! This is my first time making the classic cake but so far the results are impressive! Just out of the oven, it’s springy and not at all dense…going to top it with raspberries and cream.
Fishing the Everett Coho Derby today! Not a salmon to be found but a great day on the Puget Sound!
That telltale fall light is here and my tomatoes are at their peak! Time to turn Marmande, Gladiator Roma, Gold Medal, Kosovo, Sweet Olive, Big Zac and so many more varieties grown at home and at my P Patch into sauce for the rainy days ahead! #tomatoes🍅 #heirloomtomatoes #homegrown #organic #instantpot #lecreuset
Poached eggs from our hens served over seared Puget Sound coho salmon strips, Chobani nonfat Greek yogurt, and fresh garden herbs! Glad it’s the weekend around here! #growyourown #backyardchickensofinstagram #backyardchickens #salmonrecipe #salmon #sustainableseafood #pugetsoundfishing
