I bought liquid smoke almost a year ago for a recipe and then couldn’t find the recipe. Me and my organization skills. This week however, I found another recipe calling for liquid smoke. And lo and behold, if it isn’t for my husband’s favorite meal. BBQ beef on buns!

Always searching for a different way to eat more greens, especially kale, I thought I’d give this one a try. Super simple and good turn out! Great for a holiday side.

After months of packing, moving and unpacking we have landed in the deep south confronted by a cold front which has left everyone in the house with a hacking cough.

Ah, that summer garden I nursed and spent so much time on all spring only to leave it with reckless abandon to the care of my overworked husband when I went out-of-town for two months….

Whoops!
I accidentally packed the crock pot.
I thought mama had more than one. And I have no idea where it is in the garage.
Wellllll……I’ll just keep you posted on the garden.
Anyone care to share one of their recipes?

We can never get enough black beans.
Here’s just one of the versions we’ve tried.
No picture because WE ATE THEM ALL!

I never know how to season anything.
Soooo….I experiment.
This time, the experimenting with spices got way out of hand.

I didn’t even do a post about thanking all the soldiers and men and women who have sacrified for our country on Memorial Day. I was swimming in garden. And I am very thankful for the fact that I am able to do that.
How the day looked in pictures:

Okay, the first set of seeds I over watered and most of them rotted, all the beans did. Lesson number 1, do not let your seeds sit in water while waiting for sprouts, not even a bit of water. The paper towel need only be DAMP!
Lo and behold though, a week later when I went to throw them out, I found quite a few sprouted! Surprise!
I started repeats of the seeds I’d drowned. Though I did not drown this lot, many still did not sprout.
