jams and jellies

well really just one kind of mishmash of fruit, sugar, pectin, and some tiny jars.

blackberry rhubarb fridge/freezer jam!  along with some other things ive made/accumulated over the summer - blueberry rhubarb jam, strawberry rhubarb sauce, and some strawberry raspberry jam from my mums. 

rhubarb season is almost over. 

START HORDING THAT SHIT.

the fog

i went home this weekend for the pops' birthday.  it was foggy when i left town, it was foggy while the seester and i were driving, and it was foggy....pretty much the whole weekend.  but there was good food, family chats [appropriate and not], lots of naps, and sailing!

positive things deter my brain from thinking of what i thought was the stephen king story called the fog.  its called the mist.  whatever.  its terrifying.

moussaka ...with ONIONS

eggplanty friedness.  really not all that appealing looking. 

pulled pork and whoopie pies

not from the same day.  but both stellar nonetheless.

the pork was [grass fed organic] from the farmer's market and i paid ... a lot.  seared and dumped in the crock pot with soy, kecap manis, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, pepper flakes, and ...some chicken breasts that i had leftover.
