A simple vacation dinner on the grill of our mount

A simple vacation dinner on the grill of our mountain cabin tonight. Chicken, baked potato, and grilled asparagus. Is it me or does food seem to taste even better when you're on vacation? 🤔 #grilling #vacationvibes

Bread baking time! It's 88 degrees outside but in my mind it's time for all the fall vibes. (I used the New York Times No-Knead recipe which pretty much never fails). #breadmaking #bakinglove

This recipe for Mango and Tomato Fresh Salsa is an oldie. I think it's actually one of the first recipes I ever posted to my blog. And though it may be an old recipe, it's still a summertime favorite for me. I really only ever make it in the summer when my garden heirloom tomatoes are ripe and when I can grill some fish or meat to go along with it. It's so juicy and fresh - perfect for a hot summer day. You can find the recipe on the blog. #gardentotable

Another simple summer lunch. I just can't work up

Another simple summer lunch. I just can't work up an appetite for a big lunch in the heat of the summer. So today it's cottage cheese, cucumbers and tomatoes from the garden, and a side of roasted garlic sauerkraut. What are y'all having for lunch today? #lunchtime #foodlove
