Caprese salad by guest blogger Bo

 
 
i've been fortunate to live with a roomy that appreciates all things fresh and good to eat! i've not only been able to taste test almost everything that leaves her kitchen but been the keen observer of her methods for cooking and baking in the kitchen! i've seen her raise her little balcony garden, starting with just a humble garden of herbs last year to a garden that this year included tomatoes! she picked a ripe tomato for me last week, which later became my dinner the following day- a classic salad-  sliced tomato, mozzerella, fresh basil that was drizzled with olive oil, balsamic vinaigarette and fresh ground pepper.

please note that 1) i often eat popcorn + wine for dinner 2) i don't cook 3) i tend to husband duties in the household such as cleaning up after dinner, loading the dishwasher and network administration of our internet, which is why i thought this was significant enough to post.

There's food growing on my balcony


I couldn't contain my excitement and had to share a pic of these beautiful little buds that showed up on my eggplant plant in the past couple days. It's crazy to think that all of a sudden amongst the gaggle of giant leaves, these little babies formed, and they're going to turn into something edible. I'm so excited! Stay tuned for future eggplant updates.

We growed it!

Finally, some fresh lettuce and dill from the garden. Add chicken & bacon from Rowe Farms and you're done.
