"Visit your local produce counter" I really should explain, the counter space was made possible by the removal of the microwave from the counter to a new yet unconventional spot. So how can you make a small kitchen more user friendly? By freeing up valuable counter space, thereby creating the illusion of a larger kitchen. So we did, see below.
You know those cupboards above the refrigerator, the ones you really do not keep anything of any real need in, you know the ones that are so far back, unless you have 5 foot long arms, you cannot even open the cupboard, let alone grab something from it. Oh you do? And you know that space on the top of the refrigerator, where everything seems to gather, because at the time it seemed like a good idea to put it there. Oh you do, great. Well problem solved. Since the cupboard doesn't really serve a purpose and neither does the top of the fridge, and since we are not able to remodel the kitchen at this moment, we put the microwave up there. The cupboard has not lost any status because it still holds the same inventory of important items, and the top of the fridge is covered. The best part, the counter where the microwave sat, is also free. Free to be a prep area!
I love red peppers, but sometimes they do not get used before they get that withered leathery look. What to do? Roast it on the stove top, let it cool and get it into the freezer until you need a little red pepper to jazz up your next something something.
The raapberries are ripening!
The blueberries are ripening!
And last but not least, the strawberries are ripening!I am making home fried potatoes with bacon and green onions to go along with some leftovers from the Father's Day BBQ, we are going to settle on the couch and catch a movie.
As always thanks for taking the time to stop and say hello.
