Sunchoke virgin ☺️😉

What should I make with my first harvest?

DIYer for life. I 💛 my house!!

I tried Tony Moraco 's (Steel Pan Guy) viral steel pot coffee 🤯😳 this morning instead of my usual cold brew or Nespresso.

Um. What is this magic?!

I'm finding more and more that simple is better.

Have you tried this?
Would you try this?

Double rainbow, ALL THE WAYYYYYYYYYY 🌈

But we're not out of the weeds yet. still three more hours of tornado warning. 😫🌪️😬

🌪️ Tornado, 🌨️ Hail, and ⛈️ Rain all night!!! Let's assess the damage 😫

We had a tornado warning. Quite a few people's homes were affected in Heber-Overgaard, a town just about 30 minutes away and it looks like the tornado is headed this way. Fingers crossed that it is not coming here!!!

I might have a problem 😅

Since I found out that people been keeping this a secret for 5 years, I just gotta make sure I tell everybody about it.

This is my favorite place to eat up here. In fact it's probably the only place I actually want to eat in the White Mountains.

Fantastic food. Traditional Native ingredients. White Mountain Apache tribe. The chef Nephi Craig wrote a book about his story, which is an absolute inspiration.

Supporting local. Incredibly ridiculously affordable prices. Most of these dishes like the scallop dish that I had today $18. I would have paid easily $65 for that in California.

Now, they're only open for lunch from 12:00 to 3:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. Call before you go because sometimes they're closed. Like this Friday they're not serving lunch.

Staff is friendly. I always have a great meal there. In the mornings they have coffee and a cafe with pastries. Every single pastry I've had from them has been really good. No bad meals. Only good meals.

Go to Café Gozhóó and tell them I sent ya 😉

I might be a little upset when I go when they're all sold out because too many people are going. But that's a good reason.

Maybe I'll see you there! I average about one lunch a week when I'm here in town.

She's still going and down, wow, my garden was plentiful this year 🫶🏾🙏🏾

What did you grow this year? Or what would you grow if you had a garden?

Here's what I got:

6 melons
6-8 lemon cucumbers
1 regular cucumber
25+ spaghetti squash
6 pumpkins (I didn't even plant)
30 garlic cloves
20+ zephyr squash
5lbs of tomatoes and counting
3 artichokes
50+ radishes
20 carrots and counting
1lb green beans
1/2 lb Anasazi beans
Chard, lettuce, herbs, kale, broccoli greens too many to count
And that's not everything.

Sweet potatoes, sunchokes, regular potatoes, tomatoes, blue corn, all are still growing.
