Ground Turkey Hash with Broccoli, Red Pepper, Potato and Shallots & Banana Cranberry Coffee Cake

 Restoration supper tonite…. live from NYC…

Rain… clouds… humidity… bit of sun… rain…  today was a rain sandwich… the west is broiling… the south is steaming…  we are humid in the mid 70’s…  grateful for our sandwich weather… everything else is on the weather menu is waaaay worse!  Our robin mama still sitting on the nest most of the day… thinking the eggs have hatched as she pops off for a bit of food now and then… probably keeping the hatchlings warm (they are born nekked and blind you know) she is dedicated.  Haven’t seen papa yet…  hoping he shows up to help feed the youngsters when their ready.  


Iced coffee 🧋and a banana 🍌 out on the deck post rain showers… the hubs enjoying his hot java with steak and eggs 🍳  such a hungry fella!  Dinner discussions… Mexican? Took out some ground turkey and decided to “see what happens” 


Spent some time in the greenhouse… counted 5 baby cucumbers 🥒 thus far… loads of flowers on the tomato 🍅 plants… fingers crossed 🤞 that they produce generously… the garlic have all grown into fat scapes… leaving them intact to become full heads over the course of the summer.  Nasturtiums getting quite tall…  leeks as well…  Mr Sam trying to munch the marigolds near the door… gave him some parsley to eat as a consolation prize.

Enjoyed late afternoon gin and tonics with loads of lime and salted roasted almonds while supper cooked.


Supper tonite… apparently not Mexican 😂 instead decided to make ground turkey hash with broccoli, red peppers, cubed red potatoes and shallots… made a pan sauce for the turkey… came out delicious… now need to recall what was done to be able to repeat this meal we both loved. 


Who loves naked cakes? We do!!  This one a banana cranberry coffee cake with icing sugar sprinkled liberally over the top… 


Covid delta variant from India now accounting for 10% of all new cases…  more infectious…  more virulent… will most likely become the dominant variant in a short time…  if you aren’t yet vaxxed please make that appointment and #GetYourJabOn  we are on the brink of passing 600,000 lost in America alone…  be part of the solution…  until then… mask up… limit interactions…  fly through the market and wash those germy hands 💕😄

How was your day?   What’s on your plate?   Thoughts?
