What people are shouting
My husband’s doctor told him he had high blood pressure and he came home depressed. The silly man thought he would never eat well again. How wrong he was. Here’s what we did.
1) His doctor said to lose weight. So we cut out all the sweets and treats. (I took away his whisky until he lost the 15 lbs.)
2) His doctor said to get exercise. So I pointed him to the garden and told him to grow vegetables.
3) I cooked the vegetables he grew avoiding fancy sauces. They were delicious and we were both happy.
Now his BP is under control, I have an organic garden and Fred has a touch of his precious whisky every now and then.

Welcome to GreatGrub style eating Katherine. Do you mind sharing what foods your doctor suggested you eat to lower your BP?
The other night I grilled grass fed rib-eye over a wood flame and served it with Mum’s roast potatoes and a simple salad. Not only was the meal a tasty delight, but every bite was purchased at the farmer’s market. Better yet every bit of it was grown or raised not more than 20 miles from where we consumed it. If eating local is this good and this simple then sign me up!
no. they are pinenuts. see my recipe Family Focaccia.
Are they toasted hazelnuts? Whatever it is…it looks yummy to the tummy, Chloe.
Nope. Guess again
Can you guess what this is?
My children may not be the most well mannered or behaved, but while making brownies with her aunt my daughter thought to save the spatula for me to lick. That’s about as close to perfect as they can get.
