That's fucked. Hope you land on your feet friend.

All things considered - we're very happy with how our garden is going! It's me and my wife's first year gardening, combined with a horrible drought in our area and limited free time to work on it we had very low expectations. So basically anything feels like a win! We've gotten a million cucumbers, eggplants and beets, a smattering of tomatoes/beans/peppers, and a huge crop of winter squash coming in. We feel like we're learning a ton, and already have some ideas for what we want to do differently next year!

Super fascinating project. Thanks for sharing!

If you mean spend my time - gardening in the morning and cooking in the evening. Throw in a nice fat nap in the afternoon.

Hahaha that's a great sign!

You absolutely should if you haven't already! The best effort to reward ratio for bread imo

I have not yet - but I will have to soon! Costco often carries oxtail and I think for a reasonable price... I'll have to check next time we're there.

 

Made the King Arthur "Big and Bubbly Focaccia" recipe - new favorite way to make focaccia! It develops a fantastic crust while remaining springy and moist inside. Topped with rosemary and confit garlic, forgot to take a pic before we started digging in 😅

Just finished the Food Lab by J. Kenji Lopez-Alt, and I really loved it! There are plenty of recipes in it, but it is more focused on techniques and the "why" behind a lot of things. I'd also recommend his YouTube channel super heavily.

St. Louis cut ribs done in the pellet smoker - 250 F until they get nice and tender and then paint with sauce and grill marks at high heat. Could have let the sauce char more but we were hungry lol.

 

Made this as a celebratory dinner one night for my wife. The ricotta gnocchi comes together so quickly but feels so impressive, and any time I include a ribeye she's happy haha.

Challah (lemmy.nz)
 

Not a recent bake, but I'm quite proud of this loaf! Challah is one of the most fun breads to make imo, I love the shaping process and the results when I have French toast for breakfast 😋

 

My wife and I are starting a garden for the first time this year. We originally were just planning to do transplants for everything, but a family member gifted us some of her favorite seeds and we've had some luck germinating them! Work is busy so we are not babysitting them as much as we should, but excited to see what makes it.
