Starred in my Google Reader:
First, Arborio Rice Pudding with Cinnamon-Cardamom Streusel is another recipe from Sugar Plum that I really need to find time to try out. It looks toe-curling good.
And then there’s Michael’s Simple Summer Pickles from Urban Garden Casual. My cucumbers aren’t ripe yet, though. PICKLES!
While you’re thinking about pickles and pudding, read Feeding the PMS Beast on simply stated. I’ve actually tried chicken, salmon and tofu to take the edge off PMS cravings, and not one did a damned thing. Rice pudding and pickles do, so there you go.
Gardening with Children is an article from Urban Garden Casual which offers seven planting ideas to spark your kid’s interest in gardening. The top two are radishes and carrots, which germinate quickly. I planted neither this year, but Aya is very happy to see the aforementioned cucumbers growing. She also likes the flowers on the watermelon plants.
Plague is another laugh-and-cry entry from the amazing Anne Nahm. Stay away from people who have pinkeye, even if they claim it’s just a sinus infection!
Finally, Read the Numbers on Your Fruit is an article from SkrewTips that explains just what those little stickers on the fruit you buy at the supermarket mean. Here’s a hint: if the number on the sticker starts with 8, look for something else.
