We had BLTs, using Celebrity tomatoes from the garden and lettuce from the deck planters.
Dinner was pork kebobs with red peppers and onions, plus bean salad, cole slaw, and cherry tomatoes drizzled with lemon balsamic. We basted the kebobs with chipotle bourbon maple syrup.
Gorgeous Magic Mt tomatoes; the Terra Cotta not so much! haha! I have a problem eating tomatoes that are not red, in spite of promised great flavor. I tried growing Cherokee Purple once, and I tried eating them, but just could not do it. I'm growing Sweet 100s this year, and love them - not one has cracked/split, in spite of drought and my crazy watering schedule. Your garden produce always looks wonderful!
Beans and hot dogs here!
I'm curious about using barley flour in chocolate cakes! I wonder why? Why barley? and why chocolate?
Our dinner was leftovers from our family celebrations yesterday: potato salad, bean salad, cole slaw, turkey, an assortment of cheese and bread, and berry trifle. Delicious and no prep for me!
That bread looks delicious, with all the pieces of fruits showing.
navlys, can you share that recipe? Sounds delicious!

I made the Onion-Wild Rice bread by Reinhart again - it is really, really good. I will serve a selection of breads at our party on Saturday: Onion-Wild Rice, Rye, Oatmeal-Whole Wheat, Frank Sands original White, and a foccacia.
August 10, 2022 at 2:34 pm in reply to: 2022 Hummingbird Migration Underway (and other birds) #35880I think all of our hummers left last week. Lots of goldfinches here too. Only a few orioles, earlier this summer, when they ate tons of our oranges and grape jelly, and then suddenly stopped showing up. Our bluebird pair raised two families, but have been gone a month or so. Since we don't feed the birds much at all from April-Dec, when the bears are out and about, we don't have as many birds as we used to. But bears have become a huge problem in VT/NH, and we're told to bring in the feeders. Several have opened doors and entered homes, and one lady called Fish and Game for help while locked in her bathroom!
Blueberry cobbler would be good with your stir fry! We should plan for all of our Kitchen friends to meet somewhere for a potluck -- what an amazing meal that would be!
Do you have any leftovers, Len? I'll be there in a minute!
Happy Anniversary, BakerAunt!! I wish you many more years, as you reach the same number as us. We reach #54 tomorrow! and celebrate our anniversary, son's (49) and daughter's (47) birthdays, grandson's (20) birthday, son's anniversary (21) and daughter's anniversary (25). August has been a busy month for us! We're celebrating with a corn roast here on Saturday.
I made 2 loaves of rye bread early this morning. I have the beginnings of a blackberry cobbler on the counter, waiting for my husband to come in with a quart or so of blackberries for it. 91* earlier and now down to 86 with high humidity. I've been on the Maine coast since the middle of last week, and it was low 90s and humid there, too.
