Looks yummy. I live outside of Brattleboro and the organic locavore and slow food movement is strong here. Within a 15 mile radius we have four large organic market farms-Wild Carrot, Walker Farm, Lilac Ridge and Dwight Miller. There are more smaller ones too. We have the annual Strolling of the Heifers parade in June which celebrates our local family farms. And around that event has grown the Slow Food Summit. I am a huge fan and follower of Joel Salatin. We raise meat chickens and turkeys, sustainably and egg layers as well. We have a large garden and was able to put up 58 quarts of green beans, 100 pounds of potatoes this season and froze 70 stuffed green peppers. Our apples were prolific this year as well. I put up 52 quarts of applesauce and have 12 more bushels with which we'll make cider over the coming weeks. I also had a large number of uncooked and some cooked, chicken carcasses in my freezer so I cooked them, made stock and then with the meat made 12 individual chicken pot pies and froze them. They turned out great. So wonderful at this time of year and much better tasting then commercial ones. How interesting that you live down on the Cape. I guess I sort of expected you to always be there at the KAF facility...not that I get up there as often as I'd like. I love reading your tutorials. It's like chatting with a friend in her kitchen while she cooks and I sip wine and watch. Thanks PJ. Respectfully, Pam Baker PS my husband says I'm a good cook but a better Baker ;0)
