Platter Salad Midge is sitting with an idea that’s worth noting. One small change can have an impact. The cukes are thinly sliced, salted, and left to cure in the fridge a few hours. Instead of watery crisp slices these are briny and fold into ribbons. Texture is as important as any other characteristic!

One of my go-to recipes from the #jackdaniels cook

One of my go-to recipes from the #jackdaniels cookbook. Perfect to pair with Tennessee whiskey cocktails or ice cold beer. We call these little beauties cornbread barrel bungs. 😊 Mini cheesy cornbread muffins. Or maybe Tennessee #gougeres! Add what you like. Sausage. Black pepper pimiento cheese. These have spicy #hatchchile in them. And they freeze well and reheat beautifully in the toaster oven. Whenever you need a little something. Recipe link in bio!

Usual appetizer platters arrange piles of each ingredient separately. How about applying your #saladbrain and #platteralthinking and mix things up. #prosciutto and melon with Sardinian cheese blackberries black pepper and a little Italian parsley for a green color pop. Serve with skewers. #saladbrain #plattersalad

This platter totally inspired my #saladbrain and nicely illustrates how some reds go toward blue. It just begged for red to blue berries. I love cutting strawberries into circles for kicks too. And no soggy cobbler for us. Instead crisp buttery pastry chards as croutons for our dessert #plattersalad. We’ll douse our servings with creamy boiled custard dressing. #saladsofinstagram #platteralthinking #saladbrain #salads #plattersalads #summerdessert

These my friends are nothing more than a mayonnais

These my friends are nothing more than a mayonnaise delivery system. tomato bacon and watercress on toast. Broken potatoes eggs celery dill and onion. The hot day offered up a nice parameter. Too hot to let the homemade Mayo sit out too long. We’ll all add our own dollops. Riffs on good old BLTs and potato salad. I made the Mayo with some whole grain mustard. Adds a quiet little something. Yes. Get a cute little bag of the colorful potato mix. #platteralthinking. #saladbrain. #plattersalad. #potatosalad #salads #tennesseetomatoes

This tomato salad has me thinking about a lot of things. First. It’s tomato season so don’t settle for one shape and size. Two. I know we all love basil. But don’t forget about that scraggly oregano in the garden. Cute little leaves and flower buds. Three. Use what’s handy. Here it’s chopped olives capers lemon zest and olive oil. Four. Remember your salad practice is for you. I’m amusing myself by highlighting the little gold domes. Don’t worry so much about your family complainers and eye rollers. We all know that is just a given. Yes. The ranch dressing is at the ready😆🥗anyway. Keep it loose. #plattersalad #saladbrain #platteralthinking #tennesseetomatoes #salads

@rbquinnstagram does nothing but offer this orchid light and a healthy dose of neglect. Year after year it just keeps blooming. Do you think the secret is that it sits by a GIANT speaker? #orchid #greenthumb

If you are doing deviled eggs for the fourth. Here’s something to consider. Plate them on some stuff that adds salad interest and also holds the eggs in place. Here it’s chopped watercress beets and edamame. I cut the eggs in quarters and stained them with a dribble of pickled beet juice. My go to deviled eggs are minimalist. All you need to add are mayo and whole grain mustard. I’ve said it before. Deviled eggs can be your salad dressing.

Who doesn’t need 365 answers to the daily question “what shall we have for salad?” Beautiful Art Deco design from 1920ish. Always sparks my #saladbrain #mayonnaise. Of course end the year with lobster salad! And who is having beet and hard cooked egg salad tonight? Sounds like a great #plattersalad to me. 🥗

Quick #ikebana update. Added a couple of sage blossoms to yesterday’s arrangement. They are really strong. I find that garden herbs are a pleasant and often unexpected accent for flower arrangements. Even if you buy flowers, go pick some mint and see what happens. I like that the sage is so opposite of those delicate parsley sprays. #wabisabi #yardflowers

I don’t know what people do without lamb’s ear. The parsley sprays are like fireworks. Coreopsis. #ikebana. #thanksrb

@rbquinnstagram found this feather. Thought it might be from an oriole. Nope. Yellow-shafted Northern Flicker. I always thought it was a dumb name for those beautiful birds because it’s not the yellow that you notice first. Now I get it. Incredible. #feathers

Lots of activity in the yard today. Three little bluebirds popped out of their house. They’re hopping all over. Parents swooping around. Two are in this pic. One little timid guy still won’t leave the nest. #bluebirds 🐦
