I will die on this (blueberry) hill. Bound and determined to harvest more than 5 blueberries this year. I’m getting up on the bright checking Ph levels in the dirt. I’m adding coffee grounds to the soil to make it more acidic, I added a second Bluejay plant, named Violet Beauregarde, to get better cross pollination….still looking for a second Darrow plant. I’m a regular on blueberry blogs…find me at blueberricow.

Random musings from a Texan running in the snow. Wearing a hat that’s older than my sixth grader. Ran to Russell Feed (8ish miles round trip) and then kept running. 22 degrees, felt like 9, having to shed my gloves 5 mins into run because I was too hot and never needing them again. Having my phone get to cold and die. Getting called an “Overachiever” by some random dad in front of his own kids while I ran by them and they played in the front yard snow is quite the unintentional flex, but I’ll take it! No music cause phone died. Realizing quickly to stay on the white stuff and to avoid anything that looked like concrete (black ice, you devil) Not needing music. Running for an hour and forty two minutes. The rhythmic squeaking hare-like thump of my cadence in the snow. Not slipping once. My frozen breath on my face. peaceful flow. #lunchbreakrunningclub #fortworthrunning #panthercity

We believe in buying local produce and supporting small farms like the one that supplies Lily’s hemp, helping us produce a stunning, superior product. That’s why we’ve spent the last few years compiling a list of farms and CSAs that make healthy, quality food and produce more accessible to their community. Is your go-to on our list?

The farm is never too far from the table here at Supper. Thanks to our network of Texas farmers and producers, we’re able to serve regionally sourced, in-season ingredients every day of the week, from Wagyu beef and local honey to sweet potatoes, pumpkins, and okra, to cold-pressed olive oil, vintage wine, and handmade bourbon. Gather around our table to celebrate the very best flavors our state has to offer.

I still can’t get over the size of this cucumber and that this one (and one other) has been hiding in my crape myrtle and I never saw them. It was such a surprise when my husband ran in and said “have you seen the two huge cucumbers?!” 🥒🥒

Cucumbers are one of my favorite veggies. Or as my 8 year old will remind me. “They are actually fruit because they have seeds.” I just learned that it’s not only the seeds that make it a fruit. Botanically, fruit contain seeds and come from the flower of the plant. Now I get to share something with him. 😘

So, most of our “veggie” garden is actually fruit. 🤯 After calling cucumbers and peppers veggies my whole life it is hard to wrap my head around. I have known tomatoes are actually fruit for some time so that’s not as shocking. 😂

Miso Butter Leek & Corn Hash with Scallops

Sometimes ideas for recipes come from necessity. Specifically, the necessity of cleaning out my fridge. While my initial idea was always corn-focused, I only added leeks when looking at my fridge and realizing they had been sitting there for a solid week. As part of the allium family, I decided to give it a go and use it in place of the shallots/onions I had originally conceptualized as part of the dish.

Midway through the small of caramelizing leeks and I knew I made the right choice. The combination of leeks and corns is slightly unusual and creates a sort of hash that has all sorts of complexity going on- buttery, salty, and sweet.

This is a classic example of why I enjoy being part of a CSA (community-supported agriculture- see my post if you haven’t heard of it before). Sometimes you get something that you either don't normally cook with or maybe occasionally eat, but not a whole lot. For me, leeks didn't seem that seasonal in the summer. But it came in the box. So I tried it out. And clearly didn't regret it.

Amaranth Greens

One of my favorite things about farmers’ markets is finding new produce. In particular, I often stumble upon different varieties of greens I’ve never seen before, like these stunning amaranth greens from @texasfarmersmarket . Just look at the reddish-purple hue!

While sometimes I’ll experiment with new recipes, the most often way I prepare these types of greens is by sautéing them in a generous amount of olive oil and garlic (and kosher salt). This method works for almost all greens, no matter what type. The cooking time varies depending on how hearty and tough the green is, but all will become tender with enough time.
