food and plants of the summer, in photos

For me, summer memories are marked by food; fresh produce, cooking dinner parties with friends, long summer nights of campfires and delicious desserts. Now that the nights are getting cold, I'm thinking back on my favorite moments of this summer!

Wild strawberry snack on a hike in the niagara escarpment.

At the beginning of summer, every room in the house was filled with peonies from my backyard.

Mmmm, rhubarb curd, which was made into some delicious rhubarb squares.

I finally got a microplane grater, a present from my lovely boyfriend! It makes lemon zesting and parmesan grating a breeze.

Lots and lots of beautiful plants. More to come!
