First and foremost after 3 weeks without a refrigerator, our new French door GE refrigerator was finally delivered.
Our compressor died in our 10 year old LG and it was difficult to get a new refrigerator delivered right away. Yes, it took 3 weeks due to manufacturer hold-ups. I filled it up with food yesterday! Yay!
Next I want to share these wonderful dish towels that I purchased at William Sonoma after the recommendation of my friend Noreen (when we visited her in Cape Cod last week). The dish towels are LARGE, absorbent, and sturdy.
The best part is that they have a loop for hanging. Noreen has magnetic hooks (I just ordered them from Amazon) that attach to the magnetic side of the refrigerator. It works great to dry your hands before opening the fridge door. I'll move it to the side when my magnets arrive. I hooked it on the GE logo in the front in the meantime. They were a set of four dishtowels and are available in other colors too.
Next I want to share a product that I found in the freezer case of the supermarket. It is a plant-based faux chicken product that can be substituted in recipes that call for chicken. Great for vegetarians! It's low in fat (2 grams/serving), made from soy, and spices. It does contain some dextrose but for the most part the ingredients are decent.
Would I make it a staple part of my diet? No! but it's nice for an occasional treat in a stir-fry or a quick grab and go if I'm in a hurry. It's a source of protein. For locals, I purchased it at McCafreys in the plant based freezer section near Beyond Meat.
Next IN MY KITCHEN are some baby cherry tomatoes that I'm growing in pots on my deck.
I've had red and orange and they are sweet and tender. Enjoying them.
I'm also growing mint, thyme, sage, oregano, stevia, and basil in pots on my deck. I'm air drying some of them for future use. I'm using the open screen rack in my air-fryer oven.
Finally, I'm sharing a pair of salt and pepper shakers that I bought a long time ago on a trip to Holland. I've had these displayed in my kitchen for years, but I've never shared them before.
My Covid snack bowl.
I keep a bowl of individualized snacks in a large bowl for my Mac jong group, grandkids, canasta friends, or when friends come over (very infrequently).
I'm joining Sherry and other bloggers at Sherry's Pickings for IMK (In My Kitchen) Linky where anyone can share a post of what's in their kitchen at the beginning of every month. If you would like to see the other bloggers, click on the link.
