Avocado Toast with Broccoli Sprouts and Kimchi
I too hopped on the avocado toast train long ago. While, I think a barebones version of crushed avocado makes a pretty perfect breakfast, when I’m looking at lunch, I want more for my toast.
Strawberry Pimm’s Punch
A crowd pleasing punch with the perfect balance of bitterness and sweetness. Welcome, summertime porch sipping.
ENC Style BBQ Chicken Salad

Keifer Pear Preserves
It's pear season here, but that doesn't mean sweet, juicy Southern versions of Boscs or an Anjous. Instead our pears, called Keifers, are hard as a rock, have a grainy jicama-like flesh, and are covered in an unpleasant, often bitter skin. Yum! No, they don't make great snacks, but they do make the most crisp, distinct fruit preserves I've ever had.
Grilled Harvest with Okra Nuggets, Arugula, and Feta
The second-to-last summer Ben and I lived in the river house, our neighbors Steve and Kelly Putnam started farming an unparalleled variety of beautiful fruits and vegetables right down the road from us.
