August 1

Is anyone else struggling with the cruel hard fact that today is August 1st!?  I mean 7 whole months of the year have come and gone.  So what has happened to those lost days?

Well on July 4 & 5 we had 5 chicks hatch out from under our broody hen "Hatchie".

  My mom visited and we all rode the train to Philly to take in a Phillies double-header with my Sister and Brother-in-law.

And of course we had lots of wonderful food.  Delicious paleo treats, meats and experiments.

Blueberry Lemon Donuts

Breakfast

Bacon Tart Pie

Cherry Cream Crepes

 Breakfast bowls






Dinners

Mango lime fillet

Stuffed Pork tenderloin 

Lemon Basil pesto over chicken

Honey Mustard Porkchop

 From the grill --- think to yourself the tune from Grease "Summer Lovin' " but insert Summer Grillin' and that is our theme song here!

The days are now getting shorter...  this makes me sad, I love the summer days.  And while there might be some HOT days left, we're rapidly descending into the second half of the year.  I look forward to sharing more delicious recipes and photos of all that we're cooking up in the cafe.  2 new cookbooks arrived this week: Beyond Bacon and Against All Grain, so there will be photos from those meals.


Maybe we will think about having some fall chicks, since another hen has decided she too wants to be a mommy....

For now, We're going to enjoy the rest of the summer!
