Those squirrels don't remember where they bury the acorns. We see new oak trees sprouts all over the yard each year. They are like that squirrel in the Ice Age cartoons.

Man, most produce goes fast even when you try to ration it, but while not letting any of it expire (I don't waste food, especially not now).

One possible solution we're looking into is the framer's market sellers out here who are selling produce and eggs from their homes. As I understand it, everything is laid out by the street with simple cash prices. You pick what you want and leave the cash while they observe from a distance (there's often somewhat of an honor system out in the boonies). I'd rather not have to leave my house but this seems like a much better idea to me than driving into town and going inside of a store. Fresh produce (and soon eggs) is all that we're lacking but we're used to eating so much of it.

My father plowed a new vegetable garden today but I forgot to ask if he planted anything yet and how long it'll take to grow.


That soup looks delicious. combined with some nice bread i bet that makes a wonderful meal.

I always buy produce, fruit, and eggs from local farmers market. After the stay-at-home ruling it was not possible for a few weeks. Fortunately, several farms setup order sites on the website. So it was possible get most produce and fruit. On Saturday simply walk to the usual market site and the farmer was there with everything in a box ready to carry away.

If you have too much produce or fruit look into pickling and preserving. It is easy to do and can keep for several months or longer.

We had our first outing to The Orangerie in Vlakenswaard yesterday, had a Kofie Verkeered and geitenkaas salad met pijnboompitten honing en walnoten

The Orangerie is a small café that serves very good food, the coffee verkeered is like a latte and is served with a small glass of amaretto with whipped cream on top I usually just pour it into the coffee smile the salads from the cafe are great and they have a big selection of them, this one was toasted goats cheese with walnuts and pine nuts drizzled with honey and balsamico vinegar.

We were there to pick up my prescription as I had run out of pills just over a month ago, and I had been borrowing pills until I could get back over to get them, I was down to 4 left and no more until the border opened again, which it did on monday.

The wife bought me a cheap little wood/charcoal fired pizza oven for my birthday on her birthday so I would make pizza for the family. I started baking pizza at 16:00 and never stopped until after 22:00 I went through 3.5kg of flour Can't remember how many I made smile

Great learning experience, getting thrown in at the deep end and figuring out how to use it as everyone was clamouring for MOAR PIZZA!

We were observing proper distancing rules and we had 3 areas in the garden where folk could socialise, we sought advice on using the swimming pool and were advised that it would be ok to let others swim in the pool as long as they maintained the 1.5m and the chlorine in the pool should kill off any virus or such.

We had a great day phased out over many hours to keep the numbers down at any one time.

Pizza dough better when it's allowed to sit overnight.

I think I'm doing not too bad, when the kids and grandkids come round and say how much they missed my pizza over the last few months.

Very cool pizza oven, Alicatt! And that pizza and bread look absolutely delicious.

I don't really have a sweet tooth, my downfall is pasta and bread (or that giant croissant), or a thick soft buttery pizza dough. Mmmmmm...

Don't forget Pretzels, Mark. The real ones. Not the crunchy in the plastic bag.

Many years ago when my wife and I would frequent the malls, she'd get a Cinnabon Classic and I'd get a Auntie Anne’s pretzel, then we'd share as usual.

That's it, I gotta have a homemade pretzel soon! readytoeat

Now that's the spirit!

Why did you have to say

????

One of my sisters first job was at Cinnabon and she bring a couple home each time she worked.

We never got tired of eating them.

You can get them bigger yes, this was just a cheap one from Aldi, the biggest difference is the stone to cook on, that really does make the pizza, my oven in the kitchen really does not go high enough in temperature for a proper pizza.

Yeah Mark bread is my downfall too, keep your chocolates and candies, give me a fresh baked loaf and I'm in heaven biggrin Pasta I'm not so keen on, though don't tell my wife wink I do make a pasta dish with orecchiette, it has a seafood cocktail and Mediterranean vegies with a creamy garlic sauce I alternate that dish with the same pasta and substitute bacon for the fish with the Mediterranean vegies and a herby creamy tomato sauce, my son prefers the bacon to the fish but I like both.

Croissants are for Sunday here, I usually bake a few for a Sunday brunch.
