Today's Harvest

THe Story of Two Brownies....

Picked some spicy jewels from my garden....

what to do....what to do?

Baked two pans of brownies.....

One a FIVE-alarm habanero brownie (YeeOOOeeOOW!!!) for him who reads
A History of Philosophy....

...and another pan of brownie for him who reads
Captain Underpants.... :-)

Can't Get Enough of 'Em

Breakfast Alone

Curious, I've been waking up before the sun rises---before my two loves wake up. So I make a warm drink, coffee, tea, depends on what my stomach is hankering for. I read. I talk to God. I go outside and pick some edibles. I listen to the birds twitter and sing.

Looks like today is a frittata kind of morning...

(I picked some rainbow chards to put in the lunch menu)

beautiful and healthful...that's how I like it

threw in some blueberries and brewed some tea

this should tide me over till the two rise from their slumber

Eating breakfast in solitude is quite refreshing.

YEEOOOWWW!!!

Habaneros in the house.....yeow!

Tomatoes, Tomatoes, All Over the Place!!!

I am not a tomato person, but my hubby is, so I plant them every year. When they are small in kind, he eats them like grapes. When they are big and looking luscious....Steve eats them like apples. I cannot eat tomatoes solo. They have to be paired with something like basil and  mozzarella as in caprese, or with other greens in salad or with avocado and garlic in guacamole or with pepper and  cucumber in picadillo  or with cilantro and cucumber and chili in salsa.

Tomatoes, cherry pepper, habanero pepper, kangkong (water spinach), alugbati (Malabar spinach) and shiso



See my lemon grass growing in the background?



Steve needs to eat them fast before the fruitflies find out...

This is a Black Krimm (volunteer heirloom tomato from last year tomatoes they grew on the ground like crazy this year and I let them) 

I cut them in half and slice them in bit-sizes for Steve to munch on.
Pink Himalayan salt and pepper make them taste even better.

Do You Sprout?

Sprout some and eat some. It's good for you!
