Spaghetti Squash So Fine

A quick post. Have you ever cooked Spaghetti Squash? I just love it. 

 Just halve it, steam it and fork it to produce the most unexplained phenomena in the food world!

It truly looks like pasta and acts like pasta but is a veggie...so awesome.

Ahhh, steamed peas & carrots plus heirloom cherry tomatoes and a little pesto. 

This is a heavenly dish. Try it before the spaghetti squash are out of season!!!

Tomato Tomatoes

Today I hung my new "back hallway" addition! This is a scanner photgraphy print that I fell in love with and purchased while attending the Garden Expo in Fairfield a few weeks ago. The artist is Ellen Hoverkamp and her website is www.myneighborsgarden.com. She has developed a unique method to create absolutely beautiful designs from nature. Check it out! I also found a cool frame at Palooza in downtown Fairfield....very fitting driftwood design to complement the weathered Peggy Roo sign.

I have to admit, I love tomatoes. I grow them, I eat them and I think they are beautiful. These are some from last summer on a window sill.....

And these are my "hopeful thinking" store bought tomatoes set beside my garden growing lettuce! Looking forward to a fruitful harvest this summer....and thinking of the many fresh tomato recipes I can't wait to eat.
