Penn State Chics Dig Nerds

Every day, Natalee asks if we can go in the garden and pick tomatoes. It is always disappointing to her when we don't have anything to pick. Tomatoes are pretty much the only thing left to pick at the moment. Those are winding down now, too. We have potatoes to dig. And, there will be some zucchini yet. She was excited when I told her we had a few red tomatoes to pick today.

I don't usually blog about food, but I thought this Summer Stir Fry that we had for supper tonight was really good. This meal was courtesy of The Pioneer Woman . All of the recipe ingredients (except for the shrimp splurge, which Jesse bought from the local fresh seafood truck) came fresh from local sources-- including my own tomatoes. My zucchini plant bit the dust about a month ago. Interestingly, I do have another zucchini plant growing and flowering in my compost bin.... Anyways, I thought this was a good way to use the fresh vegetables that were available. And, it is even gluten free! I must keep that in mind. We did put it over noodles for the kids sake, but I think it would be even better over rice-- or just by itself. Doesn't it look scruptious? And, it looks so pretty! I'm getting hungry just looking at it again :)
