Our Garden and Table n'at

Homegrown, homemade and other good stuff for the soul

“When you have the best and tastiest ingredients, you can cook very simply and the food will be extraordinary because it tastes like what it is.”

Tom Fusia: Just a hack but with a passionate curiosity about all aspects of good food, from how the ingredients are grown/raised, its preparation, back story, cultural roots and obviously, its enjoyment. My southern Italian heritage might have something to do with it too - hey, it's in the blood! I'd like this admittedly unpolished blog to be a place to enjoy sharing thoughts, experiences and opinions with each other. You'll find a few garden related posts here too. In our backyard - our little corner of calm and sanity in the world - there's a wood burning clay oven, a mini vineyard, a nice flat area along side for playing bocce, three olive trees, two fig trees, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, a vegetable garden with garlic, tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, melons, miscellaneous greens, fava beans, herbs and even a 15 year old fennel plant. Plus a a few pet praying mantises patrolling the garden for insect pests, and a couple nutty cats running around. Phew!
