One of my goals this year is filling my freezer and pantry with good foods that have been grown and nurtured in our own backyard. Over the years I’ve learned a number of great tips from books, friends, and my own experiences so it seems only fitting that I would share those things here with you.
This final week we’re discussing preparing your beds.
Little Drops of Spring - Eggless, Lemon, White Chocolate Chip Cookies

My home is one with a deep appreciation for all things peanut butter. This latest creation is no exception and takes the PB&J to a completely new level. It’s got a nice peanut flavor without all the sugar called for in most recipes. Of course, if sweet is what you’re after you can always spread on more jelly!

This week we’re discussing seeds and why it DOES matter where you get them.

Well, this was one of the many recipes that caught my eye and I knew the next time we made popcorn I’d have to sit some aside for these out-of-the-ordinary muffins!
While they are savory, it’d only take a handful of chocolate chips, dried fruit, or a vanilla glaze to turn them to the dark sweet side. Hope you enjoy them!

Every Wednesday during the month of March I’ll be writing about a different aspect of planning a garden fit to fill your freezer.
We’re starting things off by asking WHAT are we going to grow?
