A blog chronicling my departure from urban life on the east coast to sheep farm and cheese making life on the west coast. Still recounting the meals I have eaten in my new setting, but with more sheep thrown into the mix.

A Few Things
A: I love Concord Grapes. B: I need to learn how to cut lemons properly...and how to de-vein a shrimp. C: It's my Mom's birthday!
What is there to learn about lemon slicing? I must be missing something subtle and important...
And deveining is so overrated...but I (used to?) have a cool deveining thing that apparently all southern housewives in the 1940's had in their tool drawers even if fresh shrimp in the shell hardly ever came to their doors! My mama had one, I inherited it, now to figure out after the remodel where it might have gone....
I haven't thought about Concord grapes in a long time. Now I want to find some!
