Guest guest Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 I am with you on the salt--this sounds so wonderful--now if only I were thereto do the salad, and even a sugar-free dessert!

Well, tonight is fish stix (well they're actually bigger then the stix, and made from whole fish not "fish spam") and roast yam. I have two yams, they are HUGE, the bigger one is massive. I will roast them in the oven, and prepare them like a baked tater (split and a little salt and a little butter) The salt I use is Himalayan and still has all of it's minerals, I have had friends call me a "salt snob", because MOST "salt" sold here, like oh what's it called, blue container with the little girl...well, that is NOT salt, it is aluminum, which is linked to Alzheimer's, and I won't go NEAR it unless I am de-icing the driveway! Anyway, that said... So that's tonight, tomorrow will do cheese ravioli with pasta sauce, baked, and Mother's Day Robbin will make rice and garlic shrimp (just garlic and some butter, melted, and the shrimp tossed in till they are done).

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 Well that would certainly be awesome! Since I only get to town a few times during the month I don't have near as many salads as I would like...got to have fresh stuff for it and when I get it, it is gone in a day or two, which leaves a week or more before the next time I can get some...(hate that, but at least I CAN get it from time to time)   ~*~Hugs~*~ ~*~Akiba~*~ Pragmatic Visionary http://www.affiliates-natural-salt-lamps.com/pages/156.php -- Dinner?

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 I hear ya, Akiba. We have a propane fridge and for some reason any produce goes bad in it right away. So we get fresh veggies and have to use them right away. BUT, soon we will have fresh produce from our garden! Yea for gardens:) SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 We have a big organic garden and grow all the usual such as lettuce, corn, onions, garlic, potatoes, tomatoes, squash, eggplant, chilies, cabbage, carrots, swiss chard, beans, peas, cucumbers, okra, beets, rutabagas, broccoli, brussel sprouts... and herbs of all kinds. We also have an asparagus bed and a strawberry bed. I'm sure I've forgotten something...Do you grow a garden, too, Dee? SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 wow, that sounds lovely! Yes, my favorites are the spinich and green onions, doing potatos again, and of course bell peppers, lettuce, tomatos, anaheim peppers, onions, red cabbage & carrots new this year, trying broccoli again but not much luck, and bok choi, and leeks. Last year was hard on the tomatos and peppers as a fungus was persistent to the point I finally gave up late in the year. I'm working on pulling the shrubs out this year in front of the rooms on the front of the house to put in raised boxes since my other two next to the entryway that are about 9 feet long x 2 feet are so happy...south side of the home~ I am anemic these last several years so I love being able to just go pick spinich as needed. I'm hoping my bloodwork comes back better this time with more iron suppliments, more spinich, and I've cut out cows milk for almond milk that I make myself. Just threw out so much almond pulp that I couldn't give away and couldn't use...so sad. I do wish I could have a small group of hens here to get eggs...it's prohibited in our subdivision :(All my starters died so it is a slim pickin's year but next year ought to be wonderful once my two other boxes are in. I put the potatos in the back again but nothing else. green beans would be one I'd like to do but can't seem to get them to even sprout. I tried corn one year, that was a laugh~ only 3 ft tall and about 4 pathetic cobs. Thanks for sharing~Dee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
