Heirloom Cherry Tomato and Plum Salad
This is how I use my late season produce, all picked fresh from the garden at peak freshness-Italian plums, Asian Pears, Bosc pears and cherry tomatoes. With the pears, I made the Carrot and Asian Pear Soup, but the plums are special and I wanted to eat them fresh in a salad.

Happy Memorial Day! BBQs and cookouts in big groups are not happening where we are but we are thankful that in the year of a pandemic, we can still quietly acknowledge and be grateful for the service of our veterans.
Roasted Delicata Squash Salad
I really love the fall if you haven’t noticed! But not for the reasons you may think. I enjoy sweater weather and pumpkin-scented things as much as the next person, but I love the fall for the produce and colors that come along with it. The oranges, deep greens and reds that are present in our foliage, but also in the foods we eat, makes my year…every year.
