Gardens and Cooking

One of my Christmas gifts was a cookbook: Jamie at Home by Jamie Oliver (Thanks Jennie!). Jamie has always been one of my favorite cooks, from way back in “The Naked Chef” days. His ability to take food, and make it look so delicious by focusing on the food itself without the need for fancy plating (which makes me think I can make it look the same way at home) has been very enjoyable to watch and read about.

Jamie at Homemebeli is all about how to make great food that you can grow in your own garden during all four seasons. Reading through it has REALLY made me wish I had a garden to grow various vegetables in. This is yet another reason why I would like a bit of land in a future home. There’s a recipe for squash soup that I really want to try, maybe it will take shape in the next few days…
