This is a blog about gardening, cooking and enjoying healthful foods that taste good too.
I am a gardener who loves to play with food, loves to think outside the box and am always wondering: “What if I …..”
Through Locust Grove Sunset Sensations (a unique wine & food sampling series) where I am a volunteer server, I meet many interesting chefs with unique and innovative ideas. These chefs use local products, seasonal vegetables and fruits to create delicious culinary dishes. I plan on visiting their establishments to see and sample more of their creative dishes and if I’m lucky, I might even get to chat with the chef behind the stove and get tips and recipes to share with visitors to my blog.
Please visit often and leave a comment.
Dear Norma,
Your blog is wonderful!!! Keep them coming! Lots of great information! I wouldn’t have expected anything less!
Regards,
Ann Drohosky
Thanks Ann.
Norma – I enjoyed meeting you at Rhinebeck – wish I could have gotten away from my booth to see your demo. Thanks for posting my photo and info – I would love love to make you a link on my website. Your information was right on and the photo was super – I don’t look like my grandma, which I usually do these days

Hello Toni,
I too enjoyed visiting with you, you were so gracious. Am glad my information was right on. Yes, please make me a link on your website.What do you need from me?
Thanks for visiting my own blog Norma – always a pleasure to have new visitors… infact I absoulutely love Chinese/Thai/Vietnamese food and try to cook in this style quite a bit – we have visited Hong Kong, Vietnam and also Penang and have loved the cuisine there especially the lack of dairy ingredients – such amazing flavours – ginger being a favorite… so will keep an eye on your blog! Nice to see something completely different to wildlife, gardening and birds!! Many thanks Miranda
Hello Miranda,

You are quite a traveller, I will be posting a tofu recipe using hoisin sauce on Friday that you might like.
Thanks you for stopping by and look forward to your future visits.

Hello Tony & Lorelei,
Glad you enjoyed my cooking demos and find my cookbooks useful. Can’t wait to hear about your Chinese son in law’s reaction when you make him Chinese meals. Hopefully I will see you on Wednesday, 2/29, same time same place.
Great blog Norma – glad I found you…thanks for all the tips. I too use ‘different’ vessels for seed starting.
