Roasted Veggies

As another wonderful summer comes to an end, I have found myself with an excess of some of our favorite vegetables.

We Have the Meats!

Meatapalooza 2016 The finale of Water Festival is celebrated with an annual Feast of Meats at the home of our friends Jon and Lolita. Every year, Jon cooks enough meat to feed a small army. We lucky invitees, the small army, are happy to scarf up all of his delicious creations. Guests supplement the Meatfest with appetizers, side dishes, desserts and adult beverages. Last year I asked Jon to share some of his smoked meat recipes. We had so much fun that we decided to do a repeat. These are a few his yummy offerings from this year’s soiree.
