I can't do much productively during the heat wave/health issue flare up/etc. like work on my games or anything where I have to sit at the computer/type for long periods of time, BUT.. I did passively sculpt a few tiny foods lol. I wanted to do one of my bigger usual sculptures, but those take so much more time and concentration, I thought something small just to keep my hands busy would be better.. close up photos look kind of weird and blurry from my camera settings or something, but overall they came out okay, especially in person.. Nearly the only reason I ever wanted to buy dolls as a kid was to get my hands on the miniature foods and plates and stuff that came with them, I've always just been obsessed with small versions of things like that, so.. why not make some! lol

#sculpture #ooops.. i could have posted this on the art blog but I forgor and do not feel like reuploading everything #into a new drafted post on a whole other blog.. not in this heat.. i have no patience lol #items are: tomato. asparagus. a four leaf clover (not food lol). some sort of folded bun or dumpling with meat inside (not based on #anything specific. I just wanted to fold a flat sheet of clay into a shape). pomegranate. cheese wheel. lemon slice. some sort of mushroom.#fish (not a real one. just made up. if it looks like any specific fish that'd be interesting). and fig.#I haven't been able to get many avocaodo pits to carve again. so sculpting. then is good for a tiny craft #WISH I COULD DO COSTUMES OR SOMETHING.. i have some pikced out. bundles of clothes laying on the floor of the closet #but GODS even before the heat wave it's just been so warm.. I know.. it's the summer. of course it's warm #but WHYYYyy............. what if it just snowed all year around and was awesome and beautiful and i was so cold and could wear 25 blankets #at all times.. what about THAT hmm?? .. the ideal..#anyway.. my favorite is the pomegranate and the mushroom maybe #The fig is hard because in the pictures of figs I googled a lot of them have that sort of white powdery type of thing on the outside #that grapes and plums and stuff have sometimes and it's hard to convey that weird like.. sheen.. plus the purple with almost powdery blue #and little lighter specks plus streaks of light green and a little orangey on some of them.#It's okay in person I think but this doesnt show up as much in pictures. The cheese also looks betterin person than images. you can't tell #the slight shine in the pictures lol. but the pomegranates look cool and also photograph decent.. hmm #I should have made toast with an egg on it or something. that would be a nice addition #OH ALSO ASPARAGUS MY BELOVED.. though they look a little wonky. the cuticle pusher tool that I sculpt with in leiu of any actual sculpting #tools has a kind of triangle edge that was suite for the little leaf details of the asparagus so that was cool. its like..ALMOST right lol

First decent harvests this year! Asparagus is coming out every single day so I am eating it constantly. I also have some swiss chard, green onions and young garlic. I've been harvesting leek for a while as well! It didn't make it into the pictures.

Rosemary and Thyme Butter Broad Beans, Asparagus and Gnocchi

As Jules was not home on Easter, we celebrated May Day yesterday with a bright and flavourful Spring Lunch. I had set the table in the dining room, but it was so lovely outside that, after enjoying our drinks (a Gold Rush for her and a Bee’s Knees for me) with nibbles in the sun, we ate the rest of our meal in the garden amongst the myosotis, by the Veg Patch and the apple tree! It was really nice and so was the poached salmon I served with these beautiful Broad Beans, Asparagus and Gnocchi! Happy Monday!

Ingredients (serves 4):

about 1 1/2 cup plain flour

1 heaped cup leftover Simple Potato Mash, cold

1 egg

1 litre/1 quart water

1 teaspoon coarse sea salt

8 fresh green aparagus

1 cup frozen broad beans

1 teaspoon Dried Lemon Thyme

1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

½ tablespoon olive oil

Parmesan

Lemon

Gadually stir one cup of the flour into the Potato Mash. Add the egg to bind it all and work ingredients together until a soft dough forms, adding more flour if necessary. Roll small portions of dough between your hands (approximately the size of a heaping teaspoon) and place them on a lightly floured surface. Working with one ball at a time, using your thumb, roll ball on the tines of a lightly floured fork. As you work, place gnocchi onto a lightly floured tray. When all gnocchi are ready, store them into the refigerator

In a large saucepan, bring water to the boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, stir in coarse sea salt until dissolved.

Trim the ends of the asparagus, and add to the boiling water. Cook, 10 minutes, until tender, then lift off the saucepan with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate. Set aside.

Add broad beans to the salted boiling water, and cook, 5 minutes. Once cooked, remove from the water and plunge into a medium bowl filled with cold water and ice cubes. Set aside.

Finally, add half of gnocchi to boiling water; cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until done (they will rise to the surface). Remove gnocchi with a slotted spoon, and place in a colander to drain. Keep warm. Repeat procedure with remaining gnocchi.

Peel broad beans. Cut asparagus.

Melt butter with olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once foaming, add Dried Lemon Thyme and dried rosemary, cook 1 minute. Then, stir broad beans and asparagus, and sauté, to coat in butter. Finally, stir in gnocchi. Cook, until hot, a few minutes.

Serve Rosemary and Thyme Butter Broad Beans, Asparagus and Gnocchi hot, sprinkled with grated Parmesan and Lemon Zest, as a side to Poached Salmon or Rosemary and Honey Roast Lamb.

Roots and Rocks

My asparagus bed has been petering out slowly, a deficit I should have addressed a couple of years ago (but I didn’t). So this year I’m re-digging some hole and looking for asparagus roots to buy locally or send away for. It’s harder than it seems.

Tractor Supply had some nursery items, either in pots or bare-root. The three bins of asparagus they had ALL looked too dry to still be alive. Out of an overabundance of optimism, I bought one package of Mary Washington and tried pre-soaking them before planting this morning. I have my doubts. In looking online to buy them, I have not yet found a supplier that doesn’t have *terrible* reviews. It seems like even companies with previously good reputations have just given up and started selling dead/dying/poor quality plants.

Also, there is a rock.

It was sticking up through the grass a little bit, and I thought it might be best to remove it before frost-heave pushed it up high enough to damage the lawmower. It was, however, and iceberg. There was a LOT more below the surface. We’ll see if my son and I can shift it this evening. Stay tuned for a triumphant victory or an injury report. Possibly both.

im honestly done with pretending i enjoy baby carrots. they take too long to eat... nowhere near scrumptious enough to account for the labor it takes to eat them... by the last baby carrot i just want it to be over.

#i only buy green beans and asparagus now that im fully in charge of my fridge content
