What wonderful June rains we have been having. Gardens are flourishing with natural watering. Dill is growing by leaps and bounds. Soon zucchini will be proliferating with some getting a bit big for stir-fry and too numerous for zucchini bread.

I thawed the last quart from 2019 and put it, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 3 stalks sliced celery, 2 cups chopped cabbage, 1 can each drained...

Salad season must be coming soon. The first day of summer is only a month away. Three-bean salad comes to mind, mostly because I have received a number of questions about cooking dry beans. Many families laid in a supply when the first directives to shelter at home came along. For many, cooking dry beans is a new experience. You can find dozens of cooking methods in cookbooks, internet recipe forums and on YouTube. Stovetop, slow-cooker and Instant-pot are just a few...

The boys got to take their lariats home, where they...

Potatoes have recently been given away in just about every growing area. With schools shut down and restaurants on limited service, growers, brokers and processing facilities have more that they can sell. Kindly, many have brought supplies to communities and food banks, so they don’t go to waste. Potatoes distributed now, have been in storage six or seven months, so need to be used up quickly. Potato soup and casseroles can use up potatoes fast, but sunny weather has us t...

Marilyn, suffering a broken wrist this year, had to sit out the activities and served instead as the photographer. Rick put "fly tags" into the calves' ears to...

Spring is here! Gardens are being planted and outdoor activities have increased, even with social distancing. It is the beginning of salad season, but one more requested soup recipe from earlier soup suppers to start us off. Stuffed Pepper Soup is another of the spaghetti sauce recipes I tried and it has been added to my permanent collection. Plain spaghetti sauce is a versatile staple in my kitchen. With a few spice and herb additions, it substitutes well for pizza sauce,...
