The contents of the refrigerator made no cohesive sense this morning so I started grabbing things….you’re going and you’re going and you’re going.

Made a tasty cream of mushroom soup, some lemon hummus, a buttermilk ranch salad dressing. The garden had a half zillion ripe cherry tomatoes, yellow and red, so I sautéed those with some shallots then added some cooked spinach/ricotta ravioli to the tomatoes. What a delicious combination that was, especially after I added freshly shredded Parmesan.

Also made a gingerbread and have no idea why.

What’s for dinner? I’ll pick from the list above, with lemon water.

I so enjoy this daily treat. Thank you, NJCher.
