Too Good

While my guy and I were out running errands we decided to stop for lunch at Too Jays, which is a restaurant, deli and bakery all rolled into one. It was our first visit, but we were both reminded of the wonderful Jewish delis of south Florida. Here's what he ordered: a Philly Grilled cheese on challah bread, or their version of a Philly cheesesteak, plus fries and cole slaw.

I got their traditional chicken salad plate. The server gave me a piece of their rye bread to try, too.

Although the place was busy our server made sure to check and take care of us. The prices were fair for the amount of food we got, too. We liked the rye bread so much we bought a loaf of it from the bakery. Too Jays franchise is only in Florida, but if you ever visit and want a good lunch, I highly recommend stopping by.

Stuff

After finding this Caron one pound skein of lovely peach yarn in my thrifted lot I raided my stash for two cakes of Mandala in Pegasus, which matches it perfectly. For practice and hand therapy I'm going to make another Worth Street Afghan with this free pattern , but this time I'll use the yarn that was recommended for it plus the one pound skein. I'm not quite ready to do the vintage/recycled linen quilt I had planned (still a bit too nervous about the idea), so I'm going to use some color therapy and make a quilt from these thrifted green fat quarters. I considered doing another Yellow Brick road patchwork pattern, but I might go with a split rail fence like this one.

Better than Fried

I cut some chives from the kitchen garden to make garlic-chive baked fries for dinner. This is a great side dish for veggie burgers. Click here for the recipe from Taste of Home.com.

In the Kitchen Garden

Our strawberries are taking over the kitchen garden, but I don't mind. This week I want to make some strawberry banana nice cream (a vegan version of ice cream) and maybe a chocolate cake with berries and cream for the topping. There's thyme in the garden now, too, which I'll dry and jar for cooking along with the chives and the oregano. Next we'll plant cucumbers, as I use a ton of those in our salads and for snacks.
