Here at The Wallow, a thing or two has been happening in the kitchen. I’ve been getting used to having an electric stove, but I also got a gas outdoor grill, so there’s also been some grilling out. I made amazingly yummy chicken drumsticks on my first attempt at grilling.

Joshua is the primary yummy-maker in our kitchen, though. We were both so excited when he made the first loaf of bread in the new house:

And then we had a couple of herb-prep days. Some of Joshua’s plants came with us from Georgia, in the planters he made last spring. Sage and oregano came in off the plants:

Then Joshua and I spent some time pulling the leaves off the stems:

Then there was a pan of sage leaves (and later oregano), ready to be put in the toaster oven to dry out. I like the 1st picture better, and Joshua likes the other one, so I just included them both.
