Pork 🐽 chops, jalapeño poppers, and baked cheesy zucchini.

The pork chops come from a pig that has never left Jackson County, the bacon 🥓 wrapped jalapeño poppers came from our garden as well as the zucchini.

Heidi’s recipe for the zucchini is a winner: spray pan with olive 🫒 oil; lay out discs of zucchini, garlic 🧄 salt and pepper, top with shredded cheese 🧀. Bake at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes. Heidi likes to get some cheese straight on the pan because they become “cheese chips.”

Good stuff!

This year’s garden has been one our most productive.

Zucchini, Wischmeier sweet corn 🌽, grilled chicken.

This masterpiece featuring our pool view has Wischmeier Brothers sweet corn 🌽. (We harvested about 12 dozen ears from our garden and are saving it for winter.) Btw, I nailed the grilled chicken.) 🐓

Oak table on my front porch. 🪵 the Live Edge puts it over the top.

This oak “wood cookie” is also from Jackson County from a felled tree near Lake and Forest Club. I sanded, stained and finished it and I like the way it turned out. The official seal of approval is that Heidi wants another one for the other side of the porch.
