You have sorrel! I grew some this year and its brilliant. I thought it would be just like spinach or chard but its not. It has an almost fizzy citrus taste. And it would go well with lentils I've been thinking...

I have been waiting for this every since I got sick ...
A gorgeous Calzone and a glass of red wine on the side.
I couldn't do cheese for quite some time and this is a deluxe version with the works in it!

Yeah, I've got 3 types. English sorrel (huge leaves and very tasty stems), another sorrel I've abandoned (it's green and purple but little taste) and a wild sheep's sorrel which is what this is made with.

And I'll post or evening snack here, or at least the bit we didn't eat! (1 bag normally does 3 nights snacks at the weekend).
I think I'll be contacting customer service regarding this one!

This is the English sorrel.
The sheep's sorrel is also known as field sorrel and I do tear it out by the handful in summer but don't mind it.
Sheep’s sorrel / RHS Gardening
The 3rd is red veined sorrel, but my leaves are much redder than the ones in the gardeners world link here (Rumex sanguineus (Red-Veined Sorrel) | BBC Gardeners World Magazine). I've removed that to one of the flower beds but it also grows wild in the lawn, as does my wild rocket!
Yes! How did you do that?
Is that fennel seed on top of the ribs?
Yes!
Don't understand what the brown lump is....
Easily in photoshop or other photo tweaking software. But as is always said its best not to use a flash in the first place for food snaps (or any artificial light unless you are a professional).
Wife loves to play cards with friends in the afternoons, so guess who ends up making snacks/lunch/dinner?
Yesterday, they'd already had lunch, so I went with bruschetta. Tomato, bocconcini, garlic, fresh herbs, marinated for 4 hours, and tuna, capers, black and green olives, parsley and lime juice. I made 16 for the four of them, assuming there'd be some left over for me.
Wrong assumption!

I love using the vortex on the Weber grill. These chicken thighs are some of the juiciest I've ever eaten or prepared in my life.
Served with slaw and cheesy potatoes. This was our pregame dinner.

I just bumped up the contrast in a basic image editor that comes on ever Apple computer. I didn't need to use Photoshop. Any free image editor should allow you to do the same thing.

I'm currently staying downstairs as much as possible so I don't have to fully cool down the upstairs during this heat wave. I'm using my MacBook Pro, which does not have my Adobe creative cloud software, like Photoshop, on it. I just used Preview, which is included on all Macs.
