1. Summer is all around me. Sweaty little boys, humid air, peeling sunburn, sweet corn, first cucumbers from the garden and sunflowers blooming....
2. Made a fabulous cobbler the other night. I couldn't even add ice cream to it because it was so perfect the way it was. I went back to my quick one bowl cobbler recipe. You can even make it right in the pan. A melted stick of butter, a cup of sugar, a cup of flour, a teaspoon baking powder, sometimes a little cinnamon, a cup of milk and a couple of cups of fruit----here it is with nectarine and blueberries. 30-40 minutes at 350. Mmmmm.
3. The zucchini, fresh from the garden, was perfect, sweet and nutty. I mixed it with sweet corn cut off the cob and a little red onion at the end, then topped it with a white wine/curry vinaigrette. I really liked the curry flavor with the corn.
4. James McMurtry tonight!!
