Welcome to my Blog

Hi, my name is Suanne and I am writing this blog to share some of the tips and recipes I have learned or created with our backyard garden. The garden itself is actually my husband John's but we have had a garden for over 25 years so I have picked up some garden knowledge along the way. We live in Austin, Texas so we are blessed with a year long growing season. We always have something to eat from the garden and this pretty much dictates what we eat. All of our meals are planned around what happens to be growing at the time. One of the biggest challenges is what I like to call crop maintenance. What to do with all of the vegetables? Beyond sharing with the neighbors and friends I am always trying creative approaches to preparing the bounty. So the blog seemed like a good way to both keep track of and share my recipes.

Farm Fresh Eggs


While we are not hard core localvores we do try to eat as local as possible by growing our own food, going to farmers markets and buying eggs from a local farm. Here are some eggs my niece brought over from the chickens her boyfriends family raises. I love all the different colors. The yolks are a very deep yellow that you cannot find in the grocery store.
