I saw this agave, or century plant, on my walk earlier this week. The bloom stalk is pretty spectacular. Despite the name, the plants actually live about 10 years. Now that it’s bloomed, it will die, but it will produce offsets at the base.

Continue reading →: Garden TimeEven though I have two recipe posts in progress, I really wanted to share some of the photos that I took At Mounts Botanical Garden this morning. I haven’t been in the garden since spring; Florida summers are not the time to be in that environment. Even today, a mosquito…

Continue reading →: Right Meal, Right TimeAs a master gardener, even though I’m no longer active in the program, I often heard the mantra, “right plant, right place.” Saturday’s dinner was the culinary equivalent.

I was looking through some of my older pictures and came across one of my favorites, that I always refer to as the dancing sheep. We were walking along the Cromford canal, which was a beautiful walk, during our trip the the Peak District in England in 2016, when we…

I’ve talked before about how Ken came to be the Tuesday night chef, so the fact that he cooked dinner isn’t unusual. The fact that I made no contribution at all, though, is definitely uncommon. I got so lazy that I forgot that I wanted to get a picture of…

Continue reading →: Super Chicken
Although I can still sing the theme song to the animated 60s cartoon, Super Chicken, what I’m referring to is the chicken dish I made last evening. It was a new recipe, without doubt the best new chicken dish I’ve made in a while. I had printed out the recipe…
