Lovely, Jul. Send some to us. Just kidding. How about guacamole, smoothies, peach cobbler, carrot cake. The onions and grapes are hard. Maybe an onion tart? But grapes are for sharing because I'm not sure they last. Good luck and share more pictures!
chips and guac for appetizer
carrot/onion soup and pear and grape salad (with lettuce) for main
banana and peach bread for dessert
CARROT CAKE! Definitely a favorite! We use onions almost every day in our main meal...just chop 'em up, fry 'em in a little oil, and throw 'em in the pot with the rest of the meal!
Give Jul a big hug from us!
Dan and Michelle ;o)
