Whoo hoo! Tomatoes from my own urban garden. The influx has started and I think that I will be more than all set for toms for the rest of the summer. And they were delicious!

Savory Snacks
I know that a lot of people associated roasted nuts more as a winter thing, but I had an urge to make some, and figured they go just as well with a couple of beers on the back porch as they do at Christmas time. These are smokey and sweet, and not too spicy. Just enough to keep you thirsty — and grabbing a few more — but not overly hot, salty or sweet to any extreme. Try ‘am, you’ll like ’em.
PS: you can use any combination of nuts that you like. I particularly like this combo and ratio, but whatever floats your boat.
Thought I would try something different for once. Savory cookies. Yeah, ok, most people would call savory cookies crackers, but seeing this is actually modified from one of my sweet shortbread recipes, I am sticking with cookies. And I guess they aren’t all savory — there are cranberries in there and a bit of sugar. But definitely more the Wine-and-cheese idea than coffee and sweets.
They really should call Superbowl Sunday the official U.S. junk food “holiday” of the year. At very minimum, it is a good excuse to make loads of snack-y munchies. To wit, these here wings and drummies. Not really junk food because all the ingredients are relatively good for you. Just don’t eat all 4 pounds… by yourself. Bring napkins. Maybe a bib too.
