I agree, this dish looks really fabulous. trying to cook more with vegetables on my own since some years because it gives more energy to me than the steak on my pics. I'm gardening since 2 years and thats why I do it.. get the best i can do from earth and after buy some meat to go with that. But eating way more vegetables than before because I like gardening

Nice SG!
Have any of you ever grown a Moon Valley pilea? For months I thought this plant was dying. Super slow grower, looked frail and dying. Now all of a sudden it is taking off and all kinds of new things are popping up.
xtsho,
I love Japanese cooking! Well, all asian really. Makes up the majority of my diet. It's very easy to make and tasty! You can tweak your dashi any way you like as well. I use thai basil in mine.

Made some refrigerator pickles. I'm not canning pickles anymore as it's too much work. The only canning I'm doing anymore is green beans. I've also started freezing whole tomatoes/sauce instead of canning. Freezing is much easier and works great.
Maybe someone can tell me what this is. I woke up this morning to this wet stuff on my grill. I have vague memories of this occurrence but it's been so long I don't remember what it's called.

It's just a drizzle but they sure could use it in Northern California and Southern Oregon as well as other western states. We're supposed to get back into the triple digits next week. But for now the forecasted temps in the mid 70's for the next few days are going to be a nice change of pace. I have a bunch of work to do around the yard and garden that I've been putting off because of the heat. I'm not in my prime anymore when I could work all day in 90° heat.
The good thing about Portland is we're west of the cascades and we get that marine flow from the pacific ocean. Unlike the east coast the water is cold in the ocean. I felt the temperature drop last night in just a few minutes as that breeze came in from the west.

Phhhst. Triple digits here since the beginning of may. And hit out first set of triples in April.
I have never seen this in the 25 years iv been in the high desert. Watering 2-3 times a day was unheard of when I was a kid. Usually once in early am was fine. Sometimes skip a day. But not anymore. I’m really hoping for lots a snow this year to make up for the rain loss.

Great to see you back!
That's not a mess. My tangle of tomatoes is pretty bad. I had to do some stuff today to hold things up. I planted too many tomatoes too close as usual. They're all falling over on each other. I got them separated and held up the best I could. It's been so hot that I stayed inside and watched things get out of hand.
That's the bad.
The good is that it looks like I'm going to get a bunch of tomatoes. I don't prune anything I just let them grow.

Sounds about right. My drop and forget maters were always extreme heavy yields. Pics are a few days old. Slowly getting things cleaned up and dotored. Kid did good. Just didn't weed or prune. Just water and basic fertilizer. Did apply your, our preventative. Have to get some up to date pics. My craziest season yet. And weeding is good physical therapy. Here is what I have been nurturing for almost 2 months. Getting better thank you.Great to see you back!
