It's FINALLY Friday!

Sunday I crossed off my garden to do list.  I took a lot of herbs to a few of the doctors I work for.  They greatly appreciated it.  In return I got a lot of zucchini and yellow squash.  Not a bad trade.  This weekend I need to go out and pick more of the two basils and make more pesto.  It will be a nice fall/winter treat.

One night this week I made lamb burgers and oven 'fried' zucchini.  It was so good.  I am going to make zucchini bread tomorrow and I think we will have zucchini pillows Sunday for dinner.  I'll post the recipe when I make them.  It involves ricotta so you know it is good.

We had a lot of salads and veg focused dinners but I did sneak in another BLT because it's summer and I have to get my fill while I have fresh tomatoes.

I don't have much of a sweet tooth but I like to have chocolate sauce for the occasional bowl of ice cream or the even less occasional glass of chocolate milk. I have made chocolate sauce a number of times.  It's very easy but what I find is that I don't use it up quickly enough and end up throwing some away.  Well this chocolate sauce is the answer.  

Today is the big guys birthday.  He requested rice, chicken tikka masalla and naan.  With of course a birthday cake. Which I need to go make now.

I hope everyone is staying safe.  It's been raining here off and on all week.  In the last two days alone we've had over 6 inches.  I wish there was a way to push it west where they desperately need it.  

What's happening at your house?
