Continue reading →: Bring On the Basil
When I think of dishes that feature basil, I think of things like caprese salad or a basil-rich tomato sauce. I don’t usually think of stir fries, but basil was the star of last evening’s stir fry dinner. Ken and I both spotted the recipe for ground turkey, asparagus, and…

There is a tall, slender queen palm in front of our house. This morning, it was one of three. Now, the other two are gone. You don’t think about losing trees, especially ones as imposing as these. Unfortunately, like us, trees are susceptible to diseases. Ganoderma butt rot is a…
