I rarely log onto Facebook. But since I just moved into a new home, I find that the neighborhood Facebook page really helps me stay informed and find out things I never would have otherwise. I spied a post of a neighbor wanting to give away Sourdough starter. I jumped on the opportunity, walked down to her home, met her and her family and she sent me on my way with this baggie of the goods! As soon as I got home, I promptly put it in a jar and gave it a feeding. It’s already very active! I’m going to try using this artist tape to label my ferment projects in my new home. I have used washy tape in the past, but this is wider, less expensive and easier to write on. Tip: Always Label - Your memory is not as good as you remember. 😉
This is something completely new for us! My son Door Dashed gifted us an excellent Christmas Eve Brunch from a local restaurant! He chose the menu items and we thoroughly enjoyed it! On top of the generous tip my son gave, we also tipped the driver extra since he had to drive up a snowy hill to deliver to us! The coffee was a Hot Buttered Cinnamon Roll Latte. Photos below. Yummo!
I cored and peeled some of our homegrown tomatoes and sauteed them in olive oil with a little garlic & salt to make a simple sauce. Of course, I could not resist slicing up a tomato, laying it on toasted sourdough with some mayo and swiss cheese. Yum!
This is our 2nd growing season after moving here to Idaho. We are still on a learning curve, working with the climate, but we are getting a bumper crop of tomatoes this year. We also managed a small harvest of potatoes, onions and herbs as well. Unfortunately, the grasshoppers are constantly munching on our basil, thyme & blueberry bushes.
