Things nave been a little heck-tick around here for the last few months. Health wise we have both been struggling with problems but I guess we now have an idea about what is happening. I have an iron deficiency and Elaine has uterine cancer with surgery scheduled for 6/1. The doctors feel that the cancer hasn't spread so it shouldn't be a problem but they won't know for sure until the surgery.
On a happier note, the garden is coming fast with all the warm weather we've had. Peas, lettuce, swiss chard, and beets are all coming good. The plants that I have started in the house are taking over. Everything is growing well and will be ready to transplant soon. I'm planting a much bigger garden this year with the hope of selling some of my extra veggies.
I got a shock the other night while cooking supper. I was making fried fish and I used bread flour instead of all purpose flour for the coating. The coating cooked up lighter and fluffier and had a fantastic taste. It was the first time that I had ever used bread flour for anything other than dough but it certainly won't be the last. Last night I fried chicken the same way. It came out light and delicious.
Tomorrow I'll tell you about a marinade I made that gave a new name to roasted pork.
