wow, perfect! I have several beets in the fridge from greenlings, but I've been reluctant to use the oven in a very hot Texas June. You've given me a yummy solution!

you have inspired me to make some che this weekend -- just need to purchase some coconut milk!

lemon basil is nice with fruit salads, too.

Verdolagas grows wild all over the place here in South Texas. I love it!

Beautiful! anonniemuss, haven't you seen humus before? : )

San Antonio doesn't have the options Austin does for farmer's markets that offer organic produce. I have found Greenlings to be better priced than if I were to buy the same organic veggies/fruits ...

oh, I am very hungry for bread pudding now.....

duh, I didn't read far enough and see you did provide recipe links.

the "satan" of plum village was made from scratch and still quite rubbery/dense. I'd love to have your friend's recipe to try out.

ah, trai hong, as I first learned to call them living with Vietnamese friends in Paris. I love their musty fragrance and pudding texture. I'm told that crows in Japan are exceedingly fond of them...

oh, man -- I am heading off to the market for some pumpkin and avocados -- I have to eat this for dinner!

Yum is right. I have the ingredients on hand so this will be my dinner tonight!

Those popsicles are too cute -- I want one of those round ice cube makers!! My mouth is watering for those cherries. And I have always loved the sound of the word "drupe"...
