With a side of fresh sugar snap peas. I am excited, it's my first time using garlic scapes. I bought it and them and the sugar snap peas at the farmer's market yesterday. Scored some honey from her, too.

Anyone have experience with scapes? I have enough to try some hummus as well.

It's called Your Decatur Farmers Market.

It is enormous and under one roof. They have the most amazing array of produce, meat, fish and bread I have ever seen in one place.

Anyway, I have an excellent filet from there which we will grill tonight. Along with a spinach salad and some egg noodles in fresh chicken broth, we will have a feast.

And we are going to have a bottle of champagne because I quit smoking today.

You are just having the best food experiences.

Also:

BRAVO, cbayer!!!!

Hugs to you for this terrific decision!!!

edited to add: I will go to the wine store and get a sparkling wine and toast to you tonight!

Have a good one cbayer.

I'm looking at fillings - probably rice, bacon, cherry tomatoes, diced squash, chilies, shredded cheese. Broiled.

The peppers are baseball size, so it'll be like 3 stuffed bell pepper sliders for a meal.

marinated some chicken in italian dressing
now they are on the smoker
going to roast some eggplant and garlic for a side dish

One of my all-time faves.

Tossed salad.

A Moosehead beer.

Dessert, 1 pc. dark chocolate with chiles in it.

in sad little leftover hotdog buns. Green beans sauteed in butter and balsamic vinegar (yay, it took an 18 mile bike ride, but I have veggies again!), and fresh melon.

We had squash with corn, peppers, tomatoes, blue lake green beans, cucumber/tomato salad. We also had brats and mashed potatoes, a fruit plate and bread.

Our zucchini and patty pan squash plants and cucumbers are really putting out and we just picked our 1st picking of green beans. We should be getting Roma and other tomatoes very soon. Blackberries & blueberries should be ripe around the 4th of July. Yum, yum.

but I had two small tomatoes from my patio tomato plant. Got it at Costco and put it out after the Mother's Day snow; has 20 tomatoes on it which will make each one cost about a dollar! The still don't taste quite like Indiana tomatoes from the victory garden but a real treat after Safeway's.

that look promising for 4th of July. I'll give you some just-picked zucchini, though!

and green beans on the side.

.....and rice, and a tamarind chutney. Okay, the Korma sauce was jarred, and the chicken left over from last night's big chicken. Seriously, the chicken was truly succulent after being simmered for an hour in the sauce.

Dessert: fresh raspberries with whipped cream. Farmer's market day yahoo!

I was at my nephew's to celebrate his stepson's high school graduation. Nice time.

it's what the husband wanted
