Where Missy Learns not to Mess with Dianne's Recipes

Well folks, I've tried to make the Squash Patties using ingredients to make them more healthy. I’ve come to a couple of conclusions: 1) they aren’t that bad the way they are. You don’t have to use that much olive oil and the only other bad thing is, 2) cornmeal. Listen, I’m sorry, I’m a southern girl. If you are going to take the cornmeal out of these, I don’t want ‘em. There’s a little flour in there, too, but I think we will all be ok. My biggest issue is the fact that when I make these they are the ONLY thing that I have for dinner. They are a main dish for me. I need to work on that, but they are so goooooood. My lesson here is to listen to my friend Dianne. She knows her Squash Patties. Sorry girlie! So, have a good time and enjoy the bounty from your gardens!! I would love to hear what anyone else is making from their gardens. I’m having such a good time with the fresh veggies. I could really become a vegetarian during the summer months. 

We were going to start selling local farmer’s produce last week, but it’s just been too darn hot. This week is supposed to be better. We don’t want to bring a bunch of produce in and have to waste it. That’s really not the point of all of this. If there is something special that you would like to see at the nursery, let us know and we will be glad to try to find it for you. We do still have some herbs and all of our plants are 40% off right now. Of course, we always have mulch for those diehard gardeners out there!! 

Later this week I’m going to talk about one of the last things I thought I would EVER talk about.......organic worm poop.....stay tuned...

The One Where it's Hot, so I Talk about the Dogs

OK, I know I said that I was going to post more, and I did find a recipe for Squash Enchiladas that I hope to be able to post, but it's just too darn HOT! I'm going to make the dish tomorrow night, take some pictures and then post a link for you guys, if they turn out as yummy as I hope. I REALLY don't want to post something unless I think it's good. Don't you think that's the way it should be?!?

SOOOOOOO, instead, I'm posting this video of my dogs cooling off in the yard. The Little One can watch this all day long, so I thought you guys might like it, too.

Stay Cool!!
