I'm finally reaching that point where I'm picking dinner's ingredients from my garden [View all]

The first of the sweet bell peppers is finally ready to pick. I was afraid to wait much longer because when ever I say 'I'll give it another day' some critter takes advantage. I found a perfect sized zucchini AND enough grape tomatoes to throw together something tasty. I took some salmon out of the freezer and just so happened to buy fresh parmesan cheese this morning. I'm debating between linguini and angel hair pasta. The only thing left to pick is some fresh basil from the herb garden. And, yes, that's my home grown garlic.

The San Marzano and Marinara tomatoes are starting to get a blush so I anticipate that very soon I will cooking up some great sauce to put in the freezer.
