The East: Jenny (Daftly Smitten) packed her lunchbox with SOLE foods all week. Fresh fruit, local sauerkraut, a mash of boiled root veggies, smoked Swiss and Colby cheese cubes with boiled eggs, and my favorite – fridge-pickled carrot sticks! Remember the snow storms that plagued D.C. just a few weeks ago? Stacey (Fessenden Farmstead) took advantage [...] The East Daftly Smitten is another blogger who says why not have breakfast for dinner.

Copious leftovers kept Jenelle at Delicious Potager from cooking nearly all week, but when she got around to it she tried out a new recipe: Roast spaghetti squash with butter, parmesan and wine. Michelle [...] I’m sorry that it’s been quiet around here. We’re up to our eyeballs in fall chores and canning. For a glimpse of what we’ve been doing check out the photos on Flickr.
