I've still got romanesco, kale and lettuce coming up, so I can't plant for summer yet.

Has anyone developed an alternative for "cream of --- " soups?

no one has mentioned almond milk, which works wonderfully in "cream of" soups instead of the cream. It is pretty high in fat though, so that's the only downside. But it has a wonderful taste, and is non-dairy.

I don't really consider Michael Pollan a food writer, so I will say Calvin Trillin, though lately I love Adam Roberts of the amateurgourmet. He just cracks me up continuously.

lately, I've been eating a ton of black forbidden rice. it's a whole grain, and delicious, much more interesting than brown rice! also makes a grand rice pudding!
i also love millet. it has more flavor than quinoa.

If I could - I would grow bell peppers, we go through them so quickly. But the deer around here would eat them all and if they didn't get to them, the rabbits, raccoons and other "critters" would!
