When my daughter Cora turned two, I made this Choc

When my daughter Cora turned two, I made this Chocolate Zucchini Cake that’s now featured in my new book SEASONAL FAMILY ALMANAC!

For her birthday THIS year, she ran 🏃‍♀️ to the book to find out what flowers she could harvest to put on her cake.

But she didn’t stop there...

She also decorated it with:

⛰️ Homemade Insense Cones (recipe also in SFA)

🐢 “Gaia” the Turtle

☀️ A Jewel that represents the Sun

🍓 Freeze-dried berries

In the end, all they cared about was the frosting, but look at this BEAUTY 😍🎂

Drop a 🎉 to wish Cora a happy birday!

PURPLE SAURKRAUT 💜🥬 Ingredients 1 pound gre

PURPLE SAURKRAUT 💜🥬

Ingredients
1 pound green and purple cabbage, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
1 teaspoon coriander seeds

Directions
1. Combine the cabbage and seasoning in a large bowl.
2. Work the salt into the cabbage by massaging and squeezing the cabbage with your hands. The cabbage will become watery and limp — like coleslaw.
3. Pack the cabbage into a clean jar. If you have a canning funnel, this will make the job easier.
4. Weigh the cabbage down with a smaller mason har to help keep the cabbage submerged beneath its liquid.
5. Cover the jar with a cloth and secure it with a rubber band or twine. This allows air to flow in and out of the jar.
6. Press the cabbage every few hours and add extra liquid, if needed.
7. Ferment the cabbage for 3 to 10 days. Keep the sauerkraut away from direct sunlight and at a cool room temperature — ideally 65°F to 75°F. You’ll start to see bubbles or white foam on the top. It’s done when you like the taste of it! Skimmed off the white foam either during fermentation or before refrigerating.

3 Tips to Grill Like a Master (even though you’r

3 Tips to Grill Like a Master (even though you’re still a newb)

1️⃣ Prepare ahead of time: slice/cut (if needed), season, and pack your food smartly - and delicously!

2️⃣ Stay close to the grill and watch your food: move it around as needed, adjust the fire temperature as needed

3️⃣ Trust your senses to know when your food is done, and try to enjoy it hot off the grill (unless it’s a dish meant to be eaten cold)

Grilling not only results in delicious food, but also awakens our primal instinct to cook over fire under the open sky. Enjoy it!
