I picked jalapeno peppers today. OMGoodness those 6 plants had at least 5# of peppers on them!
I got about 15# of tomatoes so maybe I should pull a few onions and make some salsa!

Pot roast in the slow cooker to go with all those carrots I pulled too.

For goodies from the garden!

I'm late! No disasters though, I just got lost watching shaka zulu and time got away lol!
I watched that series when I was younger, and I can still hear my dad commenting on zulu boobs to this very day.


You make Todd sleep in the closet?

too funny My LGD likes to sleep in my closet during the day.

Maybe Todd is hiding from possible burglars OR guarding your clothes so you can't leave without them(or him)

Hi there

You make Todd sleep in the closet?

That's his chosen favorite spot. I think it's the coolest place in the house.

I think he's just a fair weather guard

Soooooo after much deliberation about making salsa.....I won't.
Salsa accompanies tacos or tortilla chips so yeah to tempting to carb up.

I will freeze the peppers for use in chili this winter instead.

Fixin to peel potatoes to go with the roast. Yeah....more carbs. I am doing well on portion control so should be ok.

Calabacitas are a good, low carb option for using up summer veggies. And it freezes well too

ETA you can serve calabacitas as a side, or use them to make veggie enchiladas or tacos

Also, in case no one outside of New Mexico knows what I am talking about here is a recipe. Personally, I would never put half and half in calabacitas, but I also never use a recipe and this is what google gave me

That looks yummy!
I do similar without cheese or cream. Pretty darn tasty!
