Sunday Salon - Another Week in Review

 

A Sunday Salon, hosted by Deb at Readerbuzz,  Recap of my week, wherein I try to remember what all went on.  Some Gardening, collecting produce, reading, and cooking.  Oh and a bit of working at our office.  It does help to pay the bills.

Along with the produce collecting, I sometimes attempt to identify various mushrooms from the garden.  Using spore prints, type of gills, look in the books, etc.  Two I got this week and haven't yet identified.  Mushrooms are so weird and wonderful.

Also from my garden section:  After sitting on the windowsill for several weeks, my chayote is now finally sprouted! I am the proud mother.  Hopefully  it will eventually produce many little squashes.

Funny photo of relatives from the week.  My best nephew's selfie with his nephew and niece.

Delicious new recipe tried: Slow-Roasted Fennel and Red Onions with Tahini and Spices.  From Milk Street Vegetables, a favorite cookbook I may have mentioned before. Adding on some fresh salmon to the mix made it even better. And with more of that black ramen on the side, to absorb all the fabulous flavors.

I re-heated some of the Fennel/Onion Salmon dinner for my lunch today.  Sooo good!

Also, some food on the dessert side, a Gingerbread and Pear Pudding Cake.  Oh yum is all I can say, right along with all those who shared it with me.  Unfortunately I cannot find or remember where I got it from.

Books Read:

 I just finished Crying in H Mart, a Memoir by Michelle Zauner, which is our current Cook the Books selection.  Posted my  Review here.

Now Reading:

The Game is a Footnote, by Vicki Delany, an author I enjoy.  From her series, A Sherlock Holmes Bookshop Mystery.

That's about it for the week in review.  Or as much as I have time for today.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend y'all!
