Of Goats and Greens
A blog for food and cookery and discussions of weird things like nutrition, restaurant excursions, growing food in my own garden, DIY, and farmsteading/homesteading. But, mostly food. Mostly harmless...
I definitely steer to a preference for Real Food. (Would someone's great-grandparent somewhere have recognized that item as food?) Otherwise, I'm an omnivore who travels the world (gustatorially). Yes, I also make use of "odd bits". No, I don't bake desserts much -- I really don't have much of a "sweet-tooth". Nearly all of my recipes in recent years are gluten-free. And other than coconut, my recent and future recipes are tree-nut free, as I have digestive issues with those. There's a strong Paleo influence here.
I try to post recipes every Friday, with potential supplemental posts on Tuesdays.
Please leave me comments! Interacting with folk drives me forward!

Dining Out: Yummy House, Tampa, Florida
Chinese cuisine in this country (the US) falls into two categories: American-Chinese, and authentic Chinese-Chinese — the later more typically found in the more vibrant of the nation’s Chinatowns. The restaurant I am reviewing is more American-Chinese than Chinese-Chinese, but … Continue reading
Dining Out: Breakfast at Three Brothers Diner, New Milford, CT
On October 29th, I broke my tibia down by my ankle. On November 6th, the bone was set, and a plate (nothing worth dining off of) and some pins were inserted. At the moment, even though I can cook to … Continue reading
Dining Out: Not Your Average Joe’s
A friend and I, while doing some quick shopping a few weeks ago in the mall in Burlington, Massachusetts, knew we had to eat some lunch. We first popped into one location (whose name I’ve mercifully forgotten — mercifully for … Continue reading
Dining out in Massachusetts: Salem and Gill
I want to take this opportunity to introduce everyone to fine dining in Massachusetts, if only in a couple of destinations. However, since this is a food blog, and I took no photos of food during either visit, I’m going … Continue reading
There’s an App for That!….
I have a Kindle, and I’ve discovered there’s a world of apps out there. Applications aren’t just for smart phones (I still run a dumb phone, although my current one also can hit the internet, sort of, and take photos.) … Continue reading
