  1. My dear departed dad was such a FOODIE…we would have this side dish often, especially when visitors were coming! 👨‍🍳
    He would put so much effort and love 💕 into his cooking and recipes!
    As a creative twist, he put chives and ricotta cheese 🫕 so it became a tasty dip/snack also!! A hit!!!!

    Thanx for the modelling and unconditional love, not to mention, teaching us so much!

  2. When I was an obese teen…"salad" wasn't on my menu, vocabulary nor thoughts!! 🙆‍♀️
    That all changed when I discovered a well known health and wellness book in my early 20's.
    Losing approximately 3 kilos in 3 months before my wedding and watching my hidden natural attributes shine through…others noticed also!!
    I can't describe the immense feeling of joy to finally reach an understanding of DIVERSE eating disorders, dilemmas, issues and misinformations about basic dietary requirements…that CAN be found in organic FOODSTUFFS!
    Love 💕 your show! Your entertaining enthusiasm reminds me of my dad!! 🫵😋

  3. Just pulled 2 cucumbers out of the garden, and only need to get some Greek Yogurt at the market tomorrow. Wondering, would fresh rosemary work instead of dill? Our dill is looking a bit on the pathetic side. The rosemary is looking and tasting fantastic. Thanks!

  5. My German grandmother always would squeeze the cucumbers out under running cold water and blot with paper towel to get all water off the cucumbers before mixing with dressing. She also sliced them a lot thinner.
