I have been waiting since Liam's birthday to hear from you again- what a wonderful surprise and what a southern summertime list! So glad you are back. Hope things are going well and you are feeling stronger every day. You and Liam have been in my thoughts and prayers.

It has been 6 months!! I am so glad to hear from you. Hope that you and Liam are doing well - it sounds as if you may be.

Great list...but I always add "fresh homegrown tomatoes".
It's not summer until I can have a REAL bacon, lettuce & tomato sandwich. Those cardboard "tomatoes" they sell in grocery stores can't compete with the real thing.

I am smiling to see your post!
Love that list -- we went to our farmer's market yesterday and I went a little crazy when I saw fresh shelled speckled butter beans and various kinds of peas. Bought too much, and ate two different kinds for supper last night along with a baked sweet potato.

How do you cook butter beans?
