Scones.

 Made some buttermilk, cranberry scones this weekend.

Baking.

 I made more turnovers because we were craving some baked goods and homemade are the best.

In My Garden.

 It's Wednesday so time to update on my balcony garden.

I took the seeds from a cherry tomatoes that we had at home and look at that, they are growing like crazy. I will wait until they are little bit bigger and then separate  the seedlings

Beans in my big containers:

Green onion by the window:

More beans:

Strawberries:

Basil seedlings from my seeds I saved last year:

More tomatoes:

Lettuce, and the small pots are tiny red peppers, again I saved the seeds last year:

I had a sweet potato in my pantry that was sprouting so I cut off the growing part and put it in the dirt and here it comes, also chives on the side:

Bush beans:

And kale, this is indoor because the moment I take any cabbage like plants out I get caterpillars so it stays in side on the window, it's a dwarf kale so it won't be huge:

Dinner.

 Yesterday we had pizza for dinner, and the best pizza is homemade. Everyone wants different toppings, the dough is vegan and my daughter likes vegan cheese. 

Baking.

 I found a new recipe for a baked oatmeal that looks like giant cookie and I had to try it, the recipe is from Sweet Simple Vegan website, they said that it is a breakfast dish but I like it as a dessert. First time I always follow the recipe and then decide if I need to change anything, so I have to say that the salt is not necessary but otherwise it's so good and easy to make. 

In My Garden.

 Finally the weather is good enough for planting, I cleaned the balcony last week and added some sheep manure. 

By the windows I will plant onions and radish:

The big containers will be for beans:

Also beans:

Strawberries, thyme and oregano:

Lettuce, I got few plants and the rest of the container has seeds:

I took my house spider plants out:

I also have some kale seeds in but indoors because I get bugs and caterpillars on it, and started basil seeds.

Homemade.

 This morning I made an ice tea and started sprouts. Ice tea is just a big pot of boiling water, tea bag, lemon, honey and home made raspberry juice. 

Pies.

 I have few bags of frozen blueberries still in my freezer so I decided to make mini pies.

Dandelions.

 It's time again to pick dandelions. We found nice place with lots of flowers and the four of us picked the whole basket in 40 minutes. And again my living room was all yellow, the whole process took about five days but I have plenty of this gold liquid for homemade ice tea plus few jars of dandelion jelly for breakfast.   

Dinner.

 Simple dinners are my favourite and not just because they don't take much time to make but they taste the best. For this dinner we had a rice noodles with some tofu and all the veggies we had in the fridge. It was also a great way to use up veggies before they go bad.

Shower.

 It is that time again to give shower to my house plants. I also cut any new growth and stick into a water for some new plants this summer.

Weekend.

 Weekend was busy, I soaked some beans overnight for chili, made buns and almond milk. The chili was delicious and made with whatever I had in my fridge so more of a leftover veggies and bean chili.

I soak the almonds overnight for the milk:

 In the morning made the milk, rinse the soaked almond, I use 1 cup of almonds, add 4 cups boiled, cooled water and blend.

I use nut milk bag to separate the milk from the pulp.
