now picnic

We are still working through our freezer full of vegetables from our backyard + Kretschmann's bounty this summer. We still have a lot of roasted tomatoes in there, and I just pulled out the last of the frozen shredded zucchini yesterday to make some zucchini bread. The cookbook that I used was The Art of Quick Breads by Beth Hensperger. The recipes I've linked to are the zucchini bread one, as well as a few other good ones: lemon poppyseed bread, pear bread with vanilla and ginger, fresh orange oatmeal bread, and my favorite recipes for scones and buttermilk biscuits. The buttermilk biscuits are the best for breakfast with honey and butter, or with a savory dinner. When we make them, we only make four big biscuits from that recipe: two for dinner, and two for breakfast!
