Last week I found this monster zucchini hiding behind a garbage can full of crazy potato plants (more on those later). Under this stealthy cover the zucchini was able to grow beyond tasty eating size and into what-the-hell-am-I-going-to-do-with-this proportions. So this: Monster “Ambassador” Zucchini Became this: Monster Zucchini = 8+ cups when grated!! Became these: […]

Michael, while packing for his lunch, found these in the cupboard this morning: After staring at them for a moment – cut him some slack, how often do you come across suicidal bananas – he laughed his ass off and then took the one which declared itself “like brains but better” for a morning snack.

In the garden: pepper
This is the largest pepper I have ever grown (in the 3 whole years I have been gardening – ha!). I attempted to grow peppers for my first 2 years by seed and was never successful, so this year I purchased 2 plants (a chocolate and an orange pepper), planted the seedlings in containers by […]

They are in the window box on the kitchen window so I can see them from inside while prepping dinner or baking – so pretty and sweet (they are obviously aptly named). The pinks really stand […]

It is pissing rain Vancouver. PISSING. I can feel my autumn instincts trying to kick in. Suddenly, I crave hot chocolate paired with a good book, or to bake dinner rolls or corn bread or at least a bunch of cookies, with spaghetti or maybe chili for dinner… then knitting a blanket or sweater in […]
