What are you doing for Mom this year?  Try something different. Many people will take Mom out for a meal in a fancy restaurant.  What about a picnic?  It can be a lot if fun to enjoy a lovely day in the park.  The kids don't get bored, there is fresh air, no reservations needed, and great photo ops!  
     Or maybe plant a tree in Mom's honor. A tree is a great living memorial, and will provide shade, fruit, beauty and oxygen for generations to come. 
     Think about a great new way to celebrate Mom!  Share with u

I make tea breads, lots of them! Many people will look at the ingredient list and ask "where's the tea?" or, "is it made with tea?"  Tea breads are not made with tea, the name is from England where they are often served at teatime.  Here in the US, they are often called quick breads. I love them.  They are great with my morning coffee, a quick snack or light dessert.  They hold well in the fridge and freeze wonderfully.  For a fancy snack, try spreading a little cream cheese on the slices and serve with iced tea for a delightful summer snack.
    

As the weather turns warm, grill are being cleaned and prepped for Grilling Season!  We have fantastic Focaccia rolls and Burger buns for all your grill creations.  This is a picture of one of our Herb Rolls with a turkey burger patty.  One of our favorite condiments is a sweet red onion relish.  Here is the recipe:
2 red onions, sliced thin
1 T butter
1t dried thyme
1T balsamic vinegar
1T brown sugar
cook onions and thyme in butter over med/low heat for 20-30 min until onions begin to brown. Take your time, it will allow the natural sugars to develop. Add the brown sugar & balsamic, cook 10 min until liquid is absorbed.  Cool and serve as a topping for your favorite burger. 

Hooray for Grilling Season!
