This morning, I whipped up a raspberry buckle. A “buckle” is a cross between a coffee cake and a regular cake, and they almost always involve fruit. Which is pretty darn perfect if you ask me, because you can eat it for breakfast, or jazz it up with a scoop of ice cream for dessert. Or you could just Read More >>

Is your garden bursting with raspberries yet? A few days ago, I was able to whip up a batch of raspberry sorbet using some raspberries we had frozen from last summers bumper crop. This year our raspberry patch isn’t looking so hot, so luckily, we’ve got back up. I discovered this raspberry sorbet a few Read More >>

I big thank you to everyone who sent in their favorite sauerkraut recipes. I thought the ones with the additional spices sounded really good, but in the end I decided to try Zoe’s recipe so I didn’t have to make a trip to the store to get the spices. I do think I will make Read More >>

The Girl Who Thinks She’s A Bird and I were online last night doing research for an upcoming travel adventure, when we came across this video. I’ve watched it about 5 times now and every time I do, it makes me smile. I want to be like Matt. I want all those stamps in my Read More >>

Pickled Beets Recipe I don’t know about you, but I love pickled beets, especially in my salads. So the other day when I harvested nearly 12 pounds of beets, the first thing that came to mind was canning them. If you have never gardened or canned anything before in your life, you’re in luck.

Yesterday, was the perfect day. I slept in, played in the garden, took a 2 hour nap and then made dinner. And guess what? I’m going to do it all over again today. It’s rare for the greater Seattle/Tacoma area to see temps in the high 70’s to 80’s { I cannot imagine what it Read More >>
