I was recently browsing around my own site, in particular the recipes page. It was then that I noticed I hardly have any vegetable recipes. I promise, we really do eat veggies, quite a lot actually!

I have accepted a challenge from the people over at Man Crates. They are a company that makes gifts ideal for men, though I know I wouldn’t mind some of them myself either.
They have a variety of gift packages including themes for the griller, the athlete, the beer enthusiast and so many more options. The best part, the gifts are placed in a crate that the recipient has to pry open. No more boring gifts for the men in your life. The timing is right, my husband turns 40 later this month…a custom over the hill package is tempting!
MAN CRATES MANIFESTO
We say ‘no’ to ugly neckties, cologne samplers and executive trinkets. We don’t save wrapping paper, we don’t do ribbons.
We ship bragworthy gifts for guys. Gifts that you can’t wait to arrive because you know the recipient will love opening them.
Gifts that people gather round at the office, people following the sounds of wood being torn from wood by the included, laser-engraved crowbar.
We are Man Crates, and we deliver awesome gifts for men.
I am joining Celia’s party at Fig Jam and Lime Cordial again. What is in my kitchen this month? A little of everything I suppose! The latest additions are local products which are always fun. We spent this past long Labor Day weekend in the mountains with my mother in law. She lives in Kentucky and here is what she brought us….
This past weekend I picked the last of the spaghetti squash from the garden. We have eaten a few already and they are wonderful, but I felt the need to come up with another way to prepare them. We have had them with marinara sauce and eaten it like regular spaghetti, also pesto sauce and chicken. When I was in the mountains with my mom I made a spaghetti squash and cheese casserole.
Although summer break has come to and end for us, the need for summer foods is nowhere near over. Somehow the summer passed before I even got up a popsicle post! How did that happen?! The boys started school Wednesday and yet it is still incredibly hot, actually the hottest yet this summer.
