Anita is gone and I´m ready for another work.

marguicha @marguicha (230331) • Chile 10 Apr 24

A few days ago I bought basil. Until a couple of years ago, I bought a big plant and had enough to make enough pesto for the whole years. Now everything is expensive. And they sell parts of a plant at very high prices. So I must...

The refrigerator will have to advise me what to have for dinner.

I wrote before about my experimental nasturtium leaf soup https://www.mylot.com/post/3531321/a-kitchen-experiment. That was OK, but I wasn’t really keen enough to make it again. But then I started to wonder whether the flavour...

How are you with directions or instructions?

Marsha @MarshaMusselman (38865) • Midland, Michigan 10 Mar 21

I don't have a problem stopping and asking directions when I'm driving, nor do I mind looking at instructions when I'm putting something together that I bought in a box. It's when I'm cooking that I lack that same approach. I...

We have a lot of nasturtium leaves in our garden and the plants will soon succumb to the first frost. Now nasturtiums, in case you didn't know, are good to eat. Every part of them is edible, in fact, and I love to use the...
