Cleaning out the fridge to make breakfast. I had one sweet potato, garden peppers, red onion, handful of arugula, eggs and shredded cheese. Decided to make a sweet potato crusted quiche. Fingers crossed it will be good! 🍜🍽️

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but just fucking don’t film or photograph strangers who are just minding their business and not hurting anyone. I don’t care if they’re dressed weird, or “faking disabled” (they probably aren’t), or are adorable together. Just don’t.

Thanks to the community speaking up, Wilber has left the detention center to get medical care. This is important news & a positive first step. Now, we have to make sure he fully recovers, is reunited with family, & gets to tell law enforcement the full story of how he was shot in the back by ICE.

Getting crafty today. Made this fall garland for the mantle. Last year, I made my house into a witchy apothecary for Halloween. I had the best time using dried herbs, peppers and fruit to make the house spooky. Amazing what can be made with a glue gun. 😀

Fall garden is finished! I’ve planted cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, zucchini, yellow squash ,kale, chard, leeks, green beans, and herbs. I also replanted tomatoes and cut back the peppers which are taking over everything. They love the heat. 🌱😍

Refilling my salt and pepper cellars today. This is a combo of poblanos, jalapeños, and serrano dried peppers. Used about half the tub of dried peppers so I’ll be dehydrating more over the next few weeks. Makes the best crushed red peppers. Also makes me sneeze 😂🍜🍽️

I also experimented with the “2-ingredient” cake. It had boxed spice cake mix and a can of pumpkin. I added the topping crumble of oats, pecans, brown sugar and butter. And they shouldn’t be this good 😂🍽️🍜. Tastes like a fluffy pumpkin bread.

Picked my last watermelon and carrots. Peppers still going strong and yellow cherry tomatoes are starting to produce again. Picked basil to use in dinner and lemon basil for drying. I’ll probably make pepper jelly tomorrow. So ready for temps to drop a bit so I can do my next round of planting. 😊🌱🍜🍽️

I realized this morning that I don’t have any Lebanese cookbooks. I have some Mediterranean cookbooks but that’s it. Just ordered two (Rose Water and Orange Blossoms, and Lebanese Cuisine). If you have any other recommendations, let me know. I need a bigger cookbook shelf 😀🍜🍽️📚
