Summer martini: I like very fresh cucumbers, cherry tomatoes and little pink radishes.
Fall/Winter martini: A spicy slice of chile pepper wrapped around and onion or olive, or carrots and celery.
Winter/spring: A frosty white version with cocktail onions and a black radish slice.
Always good in a Martini: Picholine olives and Peppadew red peppers.
Of course, the possibilities are endless. Many more veggies to try this year.
Topic: martini!
Do you know that I've never had a martini? GASP! I've always thought people who drink them seem ultra cool.
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about your new community plot. Have you started preparing it for planting yet? I bet you are excited. I'm excited about it on your behalf!
I don't get assigned a plot until April 1st. I am counting the days (43). I can't do anything until then. I figure I'll collect and send out a soil test first thing. Then bring in as much compost as I can and turn the soil. I have noticed there are a number of very small plots and I'm hoping I don't end up with one of these. Yes, I'm very excited about the new plot!
ReplyDeleteI love that your photo of the frosty winter martini features snow in the background!
ReplyDeleteWe grill outside all year round, so we often end up with a martini sitting next to piles of snow. One of the first chores after a snow storm is to shovel out the patio and grill area. That picture was taken last year at the end of March.
