Hello

I'm afraid that I've left my poor page here a little abandoned. We've moved to Poland this week and things got a little hectic for a bit. Now that we're settling in, I'm not sure how often I'll post here while we're abroad. But we'll see. In the meantime you can find me at Who Stole the Kishka if you would like to follow along on our Polish journey.
   I will also add that before we left I was on a mission to clear out the fridge and pantry to the best of my ability. If you should happen to have a love affair for Costco's Jalapeno Artichoke Dip like I do, it makes a wonderfully sinful filling for an omelet... If a person were to add some baby spinach leaves and tomato it would be perfect.
   On the front of my cornmeal bag was a recipe for Cornmeal Pancakes and topped with my favorite honey from the Culbertson Meadows, they were the perfect accompaniment for the Jalapeno-Artichoke Omelets. My internet here is loading very slowly, if at all. So please go to Bob's Red Mill's website and I do hope that they have that pancake recipe there as they were fantastic. And they also made fabulous peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. A trick I learned from my grandpa!

All the best,

Tina

Beets haven't always been one of my favorite things. Along with horseradish, I just never understood their joy to the palette. Now however, it's an entirely different story and they both rank among my top favorite things.

As it tis the season, following are a couple of my favorite beet recipes.

Grill Out!

Grilling out is one of my favorite ways to celebrate summer and to celebrate the arrival of my parent's visit. This burger recipe is my all-time favorite and I hope that you enjoy it too!
