One of my favorite things to do in the fall and winter is to make large amounts of oven-roasted vegetables that will feed me for days. My oven is so small that sometimes I’ll pile vegetables into a baking dish on one rack and all over a cookie sheet on the other. I like the [...]

Yesterday I reviewed all the tomatoes I grew this year, and yet there are still so many other veggies that I can’t possible fit the remainder into one post.

When I was down to the last half dozen cipollini onions from my garden, I knew I needed to find some special use for them. Cipollini onions are marvelous little things, small and flat and full of sugar. All that sugar makes them carmelize beautifully, so I wanted to come up with a recipe that [...]

Finally got out to my garden plot after 10 days away from it. It was a total weedapalooza. Morning glories and other weeds are taking over everything. And almost all of the potato vines have wilted and dried out. I don’t know if they’re getting choked by the morning glories, succumbing to late blight, or [...]
