Today I made Homemade granola oats from Maine, our honey and dried cranberries from a farm less then 20 miles away. I also made homemade bread, I used ww flour we bought in Maine that was grown there on vacation, cornmeal from Jenny's Gristmill in Plymouth and our honey. Lunch was leftover roasted veggie sandwiches from yesterday and leftover vegetable soup. Dinner was Local Italian sausage( blood farm Groton) with peppers and onions over baked potato. all the veggies local. Also a salad of tomato's and lettuce and basil from the back yard with homemade dressing, used red wine vinegar from a friend that he made with his own homemade wine. They forcasted frost last night so I am covering the tomato's with sheets at night so they will continue to ripen on the vine, it took all summer and they are finally ripening. We also had local cocktails, Hurricane rum from Nantucket with local warmed apple cider. The amount of planning trying to do all local is very time consuming but a great challenge for using what you have. Soup is a good item because you can make a lot of soups with the local food available to us.
