#ItTakesAllKinds #FoodOnCvr

Here are a dozen foodie books with #FoodOnCover that I like. There‘s plenty more to choose from but I thought these had a fresh and/or spring-ish vibe. 💛🌱💚

This book covers a year of eating locally grown or sourced food, but I think a lot of people thought like me, Ok, but what happens in winter?!
Read if you‘re curious!

This nonfiction book from Barbara Kingsolver will open your eyes to the impact of what you choose to eat. The Kingsolver family moves from Arizona to live on a family farm in Appalachia, and decide to live for a year on locally grown and produced food (with the exception of coffee and chocolate). Daughter Camille,a biology student at Duke, adds sidebars and recipes. Even husband Stephen Hopp adds an occasional sidebar. #bookbinge #includesrecipes

Eggs Brilliant 👏🏻 7mo
DivineDiana @Eggs Yes, Barbara Kingsolver is! 🙂 7mo

Any sauerkraut makers on Litsy with advice to give? I bought this gorgeous fermenting crock today and I‘m nervously jumping in. #fermenting #locavore

Leftcoastzen What a beautiful crock ! 9mo
Lcsmcat @Leftcoastzen I‘m lucky enough to live close to Seagrove, with more potters per square mile than anywhere in the US. https://www.heartofnorthcarolina.com/cities-and-towns/seagrove.htm 9mo
Leftcoastzen OMG I‘d love that ! Fermentation is so great , not a sauerkraut fan . I helped my grandmother make pickles, both sweet & dill, love this book 9mo

Lcsmcat @Leftcoastzen The potters almost all have online presences. Try filtering an Etsy search for shops in NC and you‘ll find some. I‘m starting with sauerkraut because it‘s supposed to be easiest, but I want to try other things too. Thanks for the book recommendation. I‘ve been eyeing that one, so it‘s good to hear from someone who‘s used it! 9mo
Tamra I have made kimchi, but not in a crock. It is beautiful by the way! 😍 9mo
Lcsmcat @Tamra Thanks! My husband loves kimchi. I‘m not a fan, but we may make a small batch for him. 9mo
bnp Good luck. 9mo
jewright I have helped my grandma and mom make it. We used to shred 60 cabbages a year. The key is to pack it very tightly. My grandma had a plate she put on top to keep it pressed down, and we skimmed the foam off every day. 9mo
Lcsmcat @jewright Sixty cabbages!!! Wow. 9mo

I devoured this book the way my grandson devours broccoli. Lots of useful advice (although more NYC centric than I could have asked) with recipes and resources for further reading. This is one I see myself referring to again and again.

AmyG My grandson loves broccoli too. Ha! 10mo
Lcsmcat @AmyG Isn‘t it a delight to watch them trying new foods? His face when he tried his first raspberry was amazing. 10mo
AmyG Ha! Absolutely! 10mo

My book club book for April, this memoir of a year of eating locally inspired me to go back to making my own yogurt and today I made a strawberry sauce to flavor it with after strawberries are out of season. I grew up growing our own vegetables and eating beef raised by my grandfather so I should do better about conscious food choices, and Kingsolver has given me the nudge to move in that direction. Starting with strawberry sauce in my freezer.

TEArificbooks I loved this book. I am glad there is now a company that sells those imperfect foods that used to be thrown out because they won‘t look pretty in the grocery store. Yet there are foods I would miss if we did what she did, like bananas and Ben and Jerry‘s. 12mo
Lcsmcat @TEArificbooks I don‘t know if I could give up tea and chocolate! But, even though I don‘t enjoy gardening I can sure buy more from farmers markets than grocery stores! 12mo
IndoorDame Yum!😋 12mo

My annual re-read of the tagged book is almost over! It reminds me of all the things that I love about the growing season. This photo is from the greenhouse in February and I can't believe how much our plants have grown since then!!
