Grazing for Dinner

I always love this time of year, when I can take my handy garden basket and wander out into the garden to see what's available for tonight's dinner. We eat such healthy meals this way, trying to keep up with the best and freshest things that are just coming on ripe.

Tonight we had a nice piece of fish, and from the garden, added a small yellow summer squash, flavored with olive oil, garlic and fresh chopped basil and grilled, and sliced red and yellow tomatoes, a few green beans, and some cucumbers, sliced thin and flavored with vinegar and sugar and a little fresh dill. A handful of nasturtiums made the table look pretty.

Add a good bottle of Sauvignon Blanc, and an aged sharp cheddar for an after dinner finisher and life just couldn't be better. Oh, and followed up by the blueberry pie made from our own blueberries, and baked by Jim. Great stuff!
