Zucchini Bread… in a Pot. Organic Florida Zucchini Bread Spring is an exciting time to be a food lover.
My brain starts spinning every time I go to Whole Foods and I see that new fruits and vegetables have arrived. Nowadays, zucchini is available all year round but when I was growing up, zucchini was only a summer vegetable. My grandparents grew it in the farm and so did my uncle. Our zucchini was a little different though. Line clay pots with parchment and the cake comes out perfectly Over the weekend, my mom and I took our last grocery shopping trip together before she and my father went back home (which has left me very sad). We walked into Whole Foods and they had a large display of organic, dark green, Florida zucchinis.

Braided seed bread - Back to Her Roots. Snowed in and looking for a way to pass the time?
Might I suggest baking some bread? We make a lot of bread in our house. I’d say, in the average week, we make at least two loaves. Which, considering we’re only two people, is quite a bit of bread to get through in seven days (I’m thankful that bread freezes well). We’ve tried a lot of bread recipes, but this recipe has skyrocketed to the top of our must-have list. Not only is it absolutely beautiful—beautiful enough to serve to company, even—but it’s absolutely delicious, too! Cheddar Chive Beer Bread - Back to Her Roots.

As a beer lover, it is awesome having a constant supply of really great beer. I have to be honest, when they first started this endeavor, I was a little hesitant. I thought that it would probably be good, but not nearly as great as some of the awesome craft beers we get around here. We also get to do crazy things like make an IPA that tastes like grapefruit (so good) and put persimmon pulp harvested from trees into a beer. I might ask Craig to write more about homebrewing (if anyone is interested?)
