Tobarnut Soup is Tomato, Barley, and Butternut Squash Soup.
[I should have posted this weeks ago! Oops!]
We had some tomatoes that were accumulating from our farm share, despite the fact that there has been a terrible blight that has affected the tomatoes in our area this season. Somehow, farmer Rich has managed to get us [...]

Foster Cats Tomato Soup
Posted in cooking, tagged basil, bay leaf, carrots, cream, onion, parmesan cheese, rice, thyme, tomatoes on October 26, 2009 | 2 Comments »
A friend of mine was talking about restaurant quality tomato soup, and I thought I should dig this recipe out from my archives that I never got around to posting here.
This is called Foster Cats Tomato Soup because about a year ago, my sister, Bianca, needed someone to watch her cats for a few [...]

Tuesday was Crockpot Attempt Number Two, and I was really hoping to make use of the wonderful corn that arrived as a last minute addition to our farm share this week. A neighboring farm had shared enough for each of us to take six fresh ears, and I had some potatoes left from last week’s [...]
Autumn’s Arrived Risotto

I’m digging into the archives since this time last year I was unemployed and cooking all the time, so lots of great fall recipes were developed during that time.
I absolutely love butternut squash, and I tried it with my first attempt at risotto ever. I didn’t really look at a recipe for it, I just [...]

I’ve just put my first ever meal into a slow cooker. I don’t have much experience with them in general, but I do remember, wayyyyy back into childhood, when I still ate meat, that a neighbor of ours made a fabulous turkey corn soup in a crockpot. Charlie and I have been thinking about getting [...]
Picnic Cucumber Salad
Posted in cooking, tagged cucumbers, farm share, onion, picnic, pie, pie-eating contest, salad, tomatoes, vinegar on August 28, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
We served this at our pie-eating contest, but it’s good for picnics when you want something that won’t spoil easily.
This is a very easy and very refreshing way to use up some of the extra cucumbers that many of us still have popping up in our CSA deliveries. It’s another great side dish for [...]
Whole Wheat Macaroni Salad with Dill

There will surely be a few more BBQs to attend before the quickly approaching end of summer, and macaroni salad is always a hit. We made this for the pie-eating contest and ended up with tons extra and ended up eating it for days afterwards. You see, when we were factoring in how much food [...]

My partner Charlie and I are the type of people who are modern hippies, I suppose. As I mentioned a few days ago, we almost never use paper plates or plastic forks. We recycle and we reuse a pretty dramatic amount. We joined a farm share, or community supported agriculture community this year. Hell, [...]
Beer Beet Risotto

I knew that today was the day I would finally use the beets from our farmshare, and I would make beet risotto! My friends Anne and Neil have made me beet risotto before, and it’s delicious, even though I’m normally fairly intimidated about beets.
Don’t be intimidated about beets, by the way. Sure, they gooze [...]

Charlie’s been wanting to BBQ for several days, but it just keeps raining! The other night he wanted to BBQ, and I talked him out of it because I was tired, and as soon as we sat down to leftover Vegetarian Lasagna of Doom, there was a huge thunderclap and a downpour.
Tonight, the weather [...]
