3 things to try this weekend!

Good Morning. ☀️

Where we live, it has been hot hot hot! We've been trying to cook minimally or just mainly use the grill to keep the kitchen cool. This week we've been living on gazpacho, salads, and grilled things- like Suwannee's recipe for Thai Chicken Satay (we made it with tofu) which is EXCELLENT, by the way. We also made this Middle Eastern Eggplant Wrap again- so good!

This cocktail is something I've been sipping on for a while. At first, I thought it too strange to post, Brian won't even come near it- but perhaps there are others out there too who like to mix probiotics into their drinks.

Thanks for all of your input last week on what produce you want to see more recipes for. The overwhelming response was zucchini and eggplant. We are on it!

Much love,

Sylvia
