Blasts from the Past
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!

Homesteading: The Modern Art of Finding Land, Part I
For the links to videos describing how to buy land in the modern era of the 2010’s, scroll to the bottom. The earlier stuff here is how I came across my homestead back in the early days of the Internet. … Continue reading
Homesteading: About Those Winter-Frozen Eggs!
For those of us who live in higher latitudes, or up in mountains, one feature of life is a few eggs we can’t collect from our coops in time that freeze. Typically, they will exhibit a wide crack down the … Continue reading
Trekking to Semi-Distant Chickens and Poultry in Winter, Zone 5 or Thereabouts
Note: This post is a re-blogging of an older post (January 2019), with some edits from as I developed more experience, from those older days. The location of my hen houses are perfect for most the months of the … Continue reading
Happy New Years!
Welcome to 2022! Let’s hope this year works out better than the last couple of them. Not that there hasn’t been good days and moments and events in the last two years, but overall, there was a level of distress … Continue reading
Coturnix a la Española: Adaptation of a Spanish-Style Quail Recipe, circa 1898
Contains: Gluten/wheat, eggs. Is: Probably extremely “retro”. You can use gluten-free bread for the breadcrumbs, if desired. A 19th-century recipe from California for Codornices a la española (Spanish-style quail) was prepared by stuffing quails with a mixture of mushroom, green onion, parsley, butter, lemon … Continue reading
Homesteading in August, Here at Zone 5
June was the month of drought and too much heat (at least for my New England sensibilities). July was the month of rain, including quite a few good soakers. (There was one good gully washer that took people’s gravel into … Continue reading
Homesteading in June, Here at Zone 5
Animal, Mineral and Vegetable…. Four-legged friends: At the moment, there’s just Serenity the 19 and a half year old ragdoll cat. It is not fair to her to bring in another cat (although she has a history of getting along … Continue reading
Spring Homesteading Plans, 2021
Or, The Annals of Future Food! We had six inches of snow by late morning, Friday 4/16. Most melted by Saturday; it was all gone by Sunday morning. It is the time of year that if and when it does … Continue reading
Maple Syrup Time – Stage 2, Sap into Syrup for Beginners & Small Scale Tapping
During this first year, I’ve learned most maple syrup folks decide to boil down their sap outdoors, or in dedicated sugar houses/huts. This should be done at the outset – the humidity released is not really good at these levels … Continue reading
Homesteading: Farm and Garden, May 2022. Zone 5.
Yesterday the temperature outside climbed to 88 F, and rather humid. The sort of weather that reinforces my decision not to follow my brother and his family down to the Tampa area of Florida. I know this is nothing to … Continue reading →
