It was a muggy afternoon, but we all made the best of it with plenty of local wine and beer and almost a dozen dishes we ate like kings and queens! We also had four dogs at our dinner this time which was a welcome and happy addition. A special thanks to Lorette and Sara for traveling all the way from Milwaukee just to attend our dinner! Anyone interested in hosting in July please let me know, as that is when I would like to organize our next event. Until then...Bon Apetit!
A Seafood Paella Victoria and I made with clams, local shrimp, local sausage, local chicken, locally caught catfish, and bay scallops. It was a two hour process in the heat but definitely worth it!
We ALWAYS welcome farm fresh eggs and make them into Deviled eggs-YUM!
One of our furry happy members, Chloe Kimball (my dog/daughter...!)
Local Mushrooms and flat bread, absolutely earthy and amazing....
Another one of our furry happy members, Mr. Colby Victoria's dashing doggie!
Lorette and Sara's peas and greens, absolutely fresh, cooked perfectly, and full of flavor!
Melt in your mouth Spanish tortillas with locally grown potatoes, herbs, and onions
Happy CH&N members munching away.....
Grits, a southern version of polenta will always find a seat in the house! Creamy and delicious...
Fish and Pasta into a carbonara...scrumptious, rich, and delicious!
Of course we couldn't leave out desert! Homeade strawberry ice cream...brought me back to my childhood with how creamy and sweet, but even better with the fresh chunks of strawberries.
For those of you who could not make it we missed you! Please sign up for the feed so that you may get my next dinner date in late June. In the meantime, happy cooking, farming, and eating!
