Whoosh. That's the sound of time flying by!
Where does the time go? One week, turns into two and I am already behind in putting up our weekly meals. Father time is going to need to slow down a bit.
Given that we are smack dab in the middle of winter and enjoying fresh tomatoes is truly a blessing what the good earth does provide.
This week, Farmer Sergio brought over avocados and with our being days from leaving to Northern California and so much work, we've been surviving on fresh, yes FRESH, homegrown tomato, avocado and homegrown lettuce sandwiches. Served with homegrown/preserved pickle beans and even homegrown/preserved pickled squash. DELISH!
Now without further delay here's the wrap up from last week's and the week before meals.

Everything sounds wonderful! How do you make your pizza crust???
Have fun at all of your events!!!
oh my, I just opened my calendar which came this afternoon!!!!! I LOVE IT! I LOVE IT! I LOVE IT!
The size is perfect, its on firm paper, and the pictures are beautiful. Buy this calendar, you won't be disappointed. My teenagers said February looks delicious. They are all looking up their birthday month and looking at the pictures. Thank you, and I hope they sell, because I want one next year (a 2011 of course.)
Everything looks very good and a nice variety in the menu.
I'm curious about my calender. I ordered it back in late December and here it is almost the end of January and I still haven't received it. And it seems by the post above that others have.
What's going on? I'm really disappointed that I still don't have a 2010 calender.
Anais, Your meals look wonderful! Have you thought of a cookbook?? Definitely would like one if you do! Judi
