Veiny Chard

Beautiful chard from the garden to dress up our burgers!

txrad Squeezes His Balls...

...in the kitchen now making hamburger buns.

Red and Green

The broccoli and red bell pepper prior to becoming a casserole this week.

Freezer Art

Just something I ran across while cleaning out the freezer this morning.

Breakfast Is Served

Fresh Onions

The first onion harvest of the season from our garden! These will be an ingredient in our Southwestern rice casserole tonight!

Cremini

Once in awhile we deviate from the portobello, in favor of.... baby portobello. Tonight is such a night. Pizza in the works.

Chopped Veggies

The veggies in last night's southwestern rice casserole prepared by txrad. Gotta love that color!

Just To Annoy Nicole

This week's breakfast is ready. Blueberry muffins with one banana which was in the last stages. I was short one egg so that helped.

Broccoli Casserole

Maybe Bob isn't allergic to anything in this. txrad makes it two or three times a month. Great right out of the oven... loses something in the evil microwave the next day.

The Secondary Muffin Master

I've been wanting to bake muffins for several weeks and can never get in there to do it. txrad came home from the store today with some bananas and whipped up a batch this afternoon. While I consider myself to be the Muffin Master, I can't tell you how good these are. YUM! He chose bananas instead of my usual blueberry or raspberry because he doesn't like berries. And I'm very OK with that choice.

Collard Green Chiffonade

Navel

Peas Please

The Maestro In Action

He's doing it.

Red & Green

txrad is trying a new meal tonight. It involved tofu, some special sauce, and this colorful array of roasted red pepper (from a can) and green peas. I can hardly wait.

The sauce unfortunately is brown. I'm sure it will be delicious, but I said, "under less ideal drinking conditions involving crappy alcohol, this could be a really bad vomit session.... all we need are carrots."

Lucky Black-Eyed Peas for 2009

With dried pasilla powder (from pasillas we grew), cumin and coriander just before the smoked paprika was added.

The Morning Radish Harvest

Collard Greens With Spice

Thankful for Collards

This will be one component of our Thanksgiving feast this evening.
