Spooner Farms $26.00
I couldn’t’ pass up a flat of loganberries from Spooner farms. When I stopped by their berry stand they only had 2 flats {loganberries are kind of rare and go quick} available. We made jam and froze the rest to enjoy during the winter months. {I’m thinking a batch of muffins and a loganberry pie will be perfect later on}. If you’ve never had loganberries before they are a cross between a blackberry and a raspberry and DELICIOUS.

Just the basics.
Zaycon Fresh – Chicken Free with Credit
There were a TON OF PEOPLE picking up their Zaycon orders last week in the church parking lot. Wowza! I saw one woman have 3 cases placed in her car. We didn’t do anything special with ours this time around, just bagged it up, 2 chicken breasts per quart sized zip baggie and toss them into the freezer.
So one of the things I was craving during my 30 living off a emergency food supply challenge was Nutella Filled Cinnamon Rolls. Well, I made them on Saturday morning and they were as good {if not better} than I had remembered them. Needles to say they are all gone now. 🙂
If you have access to loganberries, I highly suggest you make a batch of loganberry jam. {I’ll post the recipe soon}. 
Another thing I made last week was homemade strawberry ice cream. This was a new recipe for me and the result was a cross between a Haagen Daz sorbet and regular strawberry ice cream. The HH is in LOVE with it. {I’ll post this recipe soon as well}. 
Smoothies…. The Girl and I made of ton of them last week. 
The Girl got a hankering for eggplant parmesan and brussels sprouts {weird combo I know} and picked up the supplies to make the dish {and paid for it herself} after work on day last week. She did not share. 
Which was fine because I was stuffing my face with PB&J on toast.
Have you ever made homemade tortillas before? This recipe is about 10 million and 52 times better than store bought. My family raves about them every time I make them.
And last but not least, Monkey Boy’s pasta. I wouldn’t want to forget that.
How did YOU do this week? Was it too hot to cook at your house, or were you baking up a storm?

Oh my gosh this is NOT a good post to read five seconds before bed. Suddenly I am very hungry.
Looking forward to that strawberry ice cream recipe!
🙂

Definitely too hot to cook in California. We had BBQ dinners or leftovers or dinner salads with leftover meat tossed in. We did make chocolate ice cream!

I am completely out of chicken breasts from Zaycon! I mean they are gone, and they don’t go back on sale in my area until the end of this month with a delivery date in September. I really don’t know what I will do!!! Nest time, I’m ordering 2 cases so I won’t run out again.
