I've been experimenting in the kitchen!

A while back we went to the farmer's market one Saturday as part of a Relief Society activity and I got some fresh okra to try my hand at some good ol' southern fried okra. It turned out amazing. See photos, the recipe, and more details here on my friend Bradley's blog.

I also got some sweet corn. And let me tell you, that was like heaven on a cob! I've never had corn that tasted so good! I wanted to try this recipe that I just happened to stumble upon one day. See photos for a comparison...yeah. I couldn't get the mixture to stick together so needless to say it was pretty messy. But at least it was tasty!

Last but not least, all this crisp, cool weather has been putting me in the mood for pumpkin! This morning I made some pumpkin waffles and my grandma's homemade maple syrup. It was delish! Next time I have buttermilk, I'll try this one.
