Plank Salmon
Topic: food
What a dinner! I planned to cook salmon on a cedar plank today. I had the plank soaking since yesterday. I got the fire going and went inside to make the marinade (featuring home grown dill 
) and when I went back out my extra wood was gone! The wood I was using was burning too fast so the coals weren't cookling the fish. I had it on the plank long enough to get the cedar flavor. So Heather threw the fish (minus the plank) in the oven. Dill planked salmon plus corn on the cob plus baked potatoes equals deee-lish!
Best Corn Ever
Topic: food
Yesterday we had the best corn ever. Heather ordered an organic box from the co-op and we picked it up Saturday. I don't usually eat any corn on the cob except for local, and this was from California. But it was the organic and the BEST! It was super sweet and oh so crunchy. We also got some celery in our box and I had some in a stir fry tonight. It tasted like it had twice the flavor of regular celery. And the oranges were the sweetest, juiciest oranges ever. If you've never had organic food I highly recommend it. It's more expensive, BUT it tastes better and you can actually save money because you eat less but feel full. Check out your local farmers market or health food store. Chances are the farmers market won't be certified organic, but will be pretty much all natural. Plus, the farmers market is local produce so with the shorter ride from farm to belly it will taste better. Feel free to share your organic experiences!
