Fresh Mushrooms

Who says dinner can’t be fresh sauteed mushrooms from Jacobson Family Farms, a baguette from pHlour Bakery and some left over grapes from a friend’s going away happy hour?

Close up the lions mane looks like an exotic coral.
Ready to eat. You are better off not asking how much butter and oil I used.
I don’t chop my mushrooms evenly because I like a variety of textures.
Fresh mushrooms keep their robust texture when cooked. The only seasoning I added was rubbed sage, salt and pepper.

Tart Cherries

Last weekend I picked up 12 pints of fresh tart cherries from Nichols Farm & Orchard. It took about 2 hours for my spouse and I to pit them with a metal chopstick while we watched movies. Most are now frozen and ready for smoothies. My only regret is not buying more.

  • Washed and ready for processing.
  • I held each cherry over a plastic pitcher to collect the pits.
  • Ready to freeze.
  • They taste even better than they look.
