Radish Hashbrowns

New for me to try - Radish Hash Browns.  Just brown the edges of some onion in butter, then add radishes.  Cook until soft on the inside. Cover if necessary, add salt and pepper, thyme and paprika.

The taste test results?



These were incredibly good.  I think I cooked them about 10 minutes (were not done before that so I put a lid on them, then added the spices and cook a bit more.  I only made enough for 3 people and could have eaten these for breakfast, they were that tasty.  I'll be planting more french breakfast radishes next year (it's what I used for this).  I'm betting any variety of radish would taste good this way.  My cherry belle should be about ready to harvest in a few days too.

Guess what's back this morning?  The rain.  In full force too.  Sigh.  I didn't get all of my garlic weeded, but 3/4ths of it is.  The Russian Creole looks terrible, but not that it's weeded it should recover I hope.  Some were flooded out, but I'll take what we get.  

The popcorn and pumpkins are sprouted, so I'm thrilled, but one row of wax beans looks iffy.  I'll fall plant if I need to.

There are deer prints in my pumpkin patch.  I may be getting a dog sooner than later.  We never had a problem until the dogs moved with the kids.  I guess we'll see.  We have lots of work to get done, and I know a puppy needs attention.

Oh no, the deer...we are okay with that particular problem because I don't think they come this far into the village, but I guess with the 3 dogs, we're pretty good at keeping garden eating monsters at bay. Wow...radish hashbrowns...never even thought of that! How very cool, do they lose a bit of their pepperiness in the cooking? I grew some radish last year, but we both found them too peppery for our fragile digestions.
Rain the radishes do not taste peppery at all. It's very good.

We are having issues with rabbits at the moment. Thankfully it is quite hard for the deer to get through the fences we have. I loved both the look and the sound of radish hashbrowns, will be giving that a try.
Thanks mamasmercantile, let me know if you like the radishes. We loved them.

We have been so surprised (pleasantly surprised) that we haven't had a deer problem here. This is the first time that I have heard of cooking radishes. I've also been hearing about people cooking cucumbers . . . they are both news to me. I guess I better get with the times, LOL.
Connie, I have roasted radishes with other veggies too. Very good.

Thanks angryparsnip. All of our dogs have been rescue dogs. I'd like to get a fence up soon before getting a new one.

Apples and Tomatoes Oh My!

  The early morning weather here has been downright chilly.  One morning it was 42 degrees.  Flower beds have been weeded.  The herb garden is next in line, but I do need to figure out what to do with all the rosemary plants I planted in the actual vegetable garden.  I have not mastered keeping them alive all winter indoors.  They will not survive the winter if left outside. Did any of my blog writing followers locate a better "blog" platform online?  Just curious if anyone is moving from blogger. 

Under the Weather ~ What's Growing?

  I have not been around in blogland much, due to being under the weather after I pushed myself way to far one day.  I have to remember we cannot do it all in one day.  Thank goodness for teas and tinctures, and healing foods (and rest).  We are feeling better. As for our blogs being used for advertising on many websites, and so forth (I can't see any other reason for the source of views: howstuffworks, dominospizza, mayoclinic {not the blog readers interested in my actual blog}) the numbers continue to climb.  I have not found a way to "opt" out either.  If any of you find a new way to avoid this, blog elsewhere, find a new platform etc, please be sure to share.   If your blog has ads, you are are not going to complain, ha ha!  You are probably making a bucko-bucks with all these visitors to your blog. Okay, back to the update post . . .

16 Weeks Until Christmas

  It's not hard to believe that we are traveling closer to the winter holidays.  I'm trying to focus on enjoying every single day until then, but I am fitting in a few snippets of holiday preparing.  Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year.  It's hard to believe it's the last day of August. I have not yet gotten rid of the links to all the advertisers using my blog posts, but again, still working on it. However, my profile has gone from my blog, and while I am in settings, it is not able to add as a "gadget" to the blog.  Weird things are happening.   Google had a data breach recently as well, so gmail users were advised to change passwords.  Not sure what else is going on, but just in case you are wondering why my "profile" is not on my blog any longer.   Okay, back to the Christmas countdown post . . .
