My sister's gourmet cooking. This picture doesn't do it justice but that was a portobello mushroom burger (vegetarian). The mushroom is saturated for days and imbued with organic herbs from our garden. Then sauteed to retain texture, juices, and flavor. The buns are buttered and grilled and spread with a thin layer of fresh made sauce, a mixture of pesto and mayonnaise that is to die for. Then add a lot of Arugula, fresh basil leaves, and a slice of Provolone. Mmmm, mmmm. The crazy part is? She cooks like this all the time! So long as she's not working on her thesis or overly busy with park affairs. I love being able to contribute with items from the garden when she asks. For instance, this morning, our scrambled eggs (home grown!) were seasoned with thyme, the first time we've implemented that particular herb, as well as lots of rosemary. So I run out in my pj's and cut away! She does all the hard parts. ;)
Well, that was a wee tour of some of the highlights of our backyard. Hope you enjoyed! And now for bed. As tomorrow is church and I'm actually taking a friend from Calc class to first service. Hoorah.
See you there... |
