Gotta have...

S'mores- sometimes I just get a craving.  But campfires aren't always convenient.  And I didn't want to start the barbecue for one marshmallow.  So I decided to give a votive candle a try.  I think I better keep on searching for another way.

Dessert- and what better place to have it than at Rick's.  We had the chocolate cheesecake the other night and it was delicious.  We actually walked from Paesano's to Ricks.  It was a perfect night for walking in downtown Sacramento.

Fresh from the garden tomato's.  Within a couple days of your move we picked several of the tomato's from our garden.  The yellow ones are my favorite.  They have a wonderful sweet flavor.  All three variety are heirlooms.  I am hoping I can find the labels so I can be sure and plant them next year.  We made a caprese salad with them one night, cappellini another and sliced on a bagel with melted cheese for breakfast.  I have actually eaten a couple just like an apple for a snack.  So delicious.
By the way, I am trying to figure out how to get rid of the tomato worms.  They are a real problem right now!  Next year I will try planting dill next to them.

Piadines!

Jeff and I learned about Piadines when visiting the Bay Area one year for my birthday.  We came home and immediately started looking for a recipe online.  We loved the idea of a salad on a flatbread. 

Really you can put anything you want on these: veggies, cheese, dressing, lettuce, spinach, chicken, hard boiled eggs, fruit...the list goes on and on.  My favorite?  Olive oil, tomatoes, fresh mozzarella.  It's always fun to eat a meal you get to create yourself!
