I can’t post photos anymore; haven’t been able to in months :( I need to transcribe the recipe, I just haven’t had the time!

Drinks. All the drinks. It’s hot and humid where I live so exciting beverages have been ruling my life lol.

I made a cucumber salad with an amazing creamy basil dressing the other day… I can hardly stop eating it.

Had the first garden cucumbers the other day and have a few more to pick today! So yummy. Might need to make a cucumber sandwich soon

Picked the first 2 cucumbers from the garden yesterday. Excited to eat them.

I love that dill pickle and key lime pie seem to be ‘trendy’ flavors right now, as those are 2 of my favorites lmao

Affogatos, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream with a shot of espresso poured over top. I’ve had 2 in the last week :D

(Im)patiently waiting for my garden veggies to ripen! I see itty bitty cucumbers, teeny green tomatoes, and maybe, finally even a pinhead-sized tomatillo starting to form! I had a parenting ah-ha moment a week or so ago and made my toddler, who loves sour things, try a piece of my refrigerator-pickled beets. She is now…

Salty. All things salty.

I got my first garden ‘harvest’ the other night from picking some fresh herbs! I used the lemon balm to make a cup of amazing ‘tea’, and threw a couple rosemary sprigs in the chicken stock I made. I used a little cilantro in my cucumber salad last night and still have cilantro, rosemary, and 2 kinds of basil sitting in the…

@s1im62 That’s exactly the issue; in the app the best way to add a photo is to use the ‘attach image’ method. For me and a lot of people, that’s no longer functional. I know when I try it the upload fails and then I get logged out and have to log back in again. It’s such a drag!

Produce! Fruits and veggies. Tis the start of the season! :)

Went to the farmer’s market on Thursday and have been reveling in the produce. Baked beets and sauteed beet greens in some butter and garlic. Been eating the beet greens here and there and going to slice and refrigerator-pickle the beets today. Got an enormous batch of kale and used that in last night’s zuppa toscana. It…

Utz dill pickle chips are our FAVORITE chip. Me, my husband, and 3 year old. We are fanatics. If we could only have one potato chip ever for the rest of eternity, it would be these. They are THAT GOOD!

@Noreenmarie1234 I LOVE Kettle brand potato chips. They are my fave, and I agree, the krinkle cuts are best. They’re so much harder and crunchier and that’s how I like my potato chips!

I had my fiddleheads the other night and shared with my husband; he still doesn’t fully get “the hype” but agrees they are good. He said I can plant the fern species if I want in our backyard swale… I think me paying $9 for 1/2 pound for these each year is just too much for him to bear :D

I found fiddleheads at Wegmans! Tis the season! Happy dance!

Spicy chili garlic crisp oil. It’s so good in so many things. I put some in my scrambled eggs this morning, mmmmm

I made curry last night with my homemade curry paste and the classic mix in my husband and I have done in curry since we started dating: mushrooms, potatoes, and onion. Even my toddler had seconds and she’s usually “eh” on curry. Tomorrow I’m making our favorite Southwestern quinoa salad and some crispy tofu. I need to…

I got my garden planted on Sunday. Hoping everyone makes it and I can look forward to a summer of veggies, herbs and even a few edible flowers!

Bread. Toasted, buttered, with PB, as a sandwich… I’ve been into bread this week.

A LIMEquat?! That sounds absolutely amazing. I didn’t even know such a thing existed. I hope I can get them for myself one day!

That looks AMAZING. I make mine with canned tuna and usually don’t have the egg or capers on hand, thus the “shady” aspect of my nicoise. But man it’s SUCH a good salad! I just tried kumquats for the first time today. They are INCREDIBLE. So sour but also with a candied orange peel flavor… I’m addicted. I saw a YouTube…

Late on the reply but I love them for my quick n’ shady nicoise salads! But that only uses a handful at a time :D

Breakfast. I have suddenly become a breakfast lover who can’t make it through the day without one.

Did you ever figure out what to make? I’m curious, even though I didn’t have any good ideas :D

Popcorn! Especially the pre-made kind that’s magically like 40 calories a cup. It’s a perfect snack and you can have so much for so few calories!

Well I’m glad to see I’m not alone on the photos! Hopefully they fix it but support said there was “no timeline” on it getting fixed so… :| @Ketch_22 , I can’t speak for everyone but I tend to post my ‘best and brightest’. Trust me, there’s plenty of sandwiches, scrambled eggs, and bowls of popcorn that don’t make the cut!…

Have we all lost the ability to post photos? :D

I finally broke down and tried the Smart Sweets version of Sour Patch kids out curiosity and found them just awful. Tiny, sticky, not sour at ALL and the super weird stevia taste I hate. At least now I know! Lol!
