eating out
This past winter was hell. But tonight it's June, and I got my chubby soul through the worst snow dump in a decade, through lambing, through a dead transmission, and a hells bells, I even de-wormed a pony today. A girl deserves to eat out! Tonight I did go out, exactly 50 feet from my kitchen window. (I didn't feel like driving or paying someone for food.) Tonight's menu: CAF-raised accidental cornish hen with new potatoes, lettuce, and snap peas from the garden. Bird was defrosted yesterday, potatoes dug up from the raised bed at noon, and those greens picked and rinsed right before show time.
Next up: Pretty Saro will be fiddled to the fireflies. My favorite old time tune. I still sing it every time I walk Jazz and Annie through the woods. I have for years.

After working in the yard all day seeing this picture made me aware of how hungry I was :) Enjoy!
Everything looks wonderful Jenna! Our winter was hell on the west coast as well! I'm so glad it's over, and we can spend our days in the garden!
Delicious!!
I made your brined roasted chicken for a social occasion friday night dinner and it was AMAZING! Everyone loved it.
Hoo-eee that looks good! Beats my crappy dinner all hollow...
Life is good, huh Jenna? ;0)
Definitely a good looking dinner.
I like your style of eating out!!!! Looks delicious... can't wait for the day when I have an entirely home grown meal of my own!
I love that song too. Especially love the Iris Dement version.
Mighty fine looking meal Jenna.
It's is great to know where your food comes from? I have recently started a garden and am just amazed at how better I feel better knowing where the food comes from , and what is in the food I eat. Great dinner
Lovely!
