Blueberries are RIPE! Artichokes and Squash Blossoms...

The blueberries are finally ripe!  
If you requested any berries... please contact me asap as some bushes need to be picked this week.  Yeah for sun!




Carpinino Corn arrived Aug. 31st!  Yum!
I LOVE Carpinitos!  
Their corn is finally in but prices are higher (10/$5) this year.  All that rain, I guess.  It's so much fun shopping there because people are so friendly and eager to share their recipes.  It was at Carpinitos that I learned to cook and enjoy brussel sprouts!  This week I have been buying squash blossoms and frying them up.  Yesterday, a staff shared with me how to stuff them with cheese then batter fry them. Fried them up last night.  They were SO good!
  Also, customer's husband told me about stuffing artichokes as we were checking out the clearance rack.  He found his wife who gave me the instructions.  I made them last night and they were absolutely delicious! 
Stuffed Artichoke with bread crumbs, cheese and meat.
Delicious!!!

Next week, I'm going to try to make a video about cooking the squash blossoms and stuffed artichokes...stay tuned!  Sign up as an e-mail follower on the left side if you want a timely update when I post it.
