Capturing my love of whole foods, combined with the activity of a bustling kitchen. A weekly collection of photos from the center of my home. * * * * * Top to bottom: spring pea soup, chopping, pickled radishes, chocolate covered strawberries with smoked flake salt, kumquat lime margarita mix in progress, zucchini chips fresh out of the dehydrator, organizing the herb cabinet, spring miso bowl.
While I would love to say all of the spring veg is from my garden, it is not (but for the hydroponic peashoots). We have had such a cold cold spring so far and we don't even have leaves on the trees yet. BUT SOON! I can't wait for garden season! Be sure to visit Heather at Beauty that Moves to see who is participating this week and get a peek into more kitchens!

Your photos are lovely. I like your Margarita making... to me, that means spring is here! Delicious looking strawberry treat, and zucchini chips, and miso soup... all so good! Thanks for sharing.

I think everyone had a cold, long winter, even us in the deep south. We are just now harvesting a few crops, but my lilies haven't even bloomed yet.

It looks delicious and those strawberries. Oh my yum!! Hopefully the weather will warm for you soon. I think your winter was like our summer! it seemed to last most of the year! Hopefully some warm weather is on its way for you.

I have heard from family in Northern Europe that they never see sweet potatoes at the market. I would miss them! 😊

It has been a long winter! It was 49 degrees again today. Brrr. I can't wait for strawberry season-usually in June!

Dehydrator chips are easy to make! You just slice thinly, toss in a flavor (miso, olive oil, herbs, garlic, etc.), and dry until crispy. So tasty.

It's been a bit like that here too with the odd sunshiny days. But all the rain has made everything very lush here the herbs are doing amazingly and I just spotted a few flowers of the strawberry plants.
