Grrlscout, when are you going to start your cooking tv show?
I still have the occasional flashback to the misquite pancakes and cactus syrup GS brought us back in October.
Food related PTSD of the positive kind.
This ain't cookin', assemblin' may get me a by.
Cucumber, radish, cottage cheese, salt, black pepper, red pepper flake, alfalfa/clover sprouts. I need to work on the presentation, maybe stir the spouts into the cottage cheese.

Baked beans and ham with homemade bread. The beans have been slow-cooking all day and are just about done.
We have dinner reservations to a nice old-fashioned neighborhood Italian with corny live Italian music.
Don't know if I can make it til then...y'all are making me hungry.
I've been tinkerin' in the lab lately.
Roasted portobello, cider vinegar added a nice punch.
