Week 7 of the Recipe Challenge

This past week has seen triple digit temperatures here making cooking very undesirable. So I took advantage of the sale on pineapples and tried my first fresh pineapple. Oh my gosh, it is wonderful! So sweet. However, instead of twisting off the top as the directions showed, I sliced it off so as to be able to try starting my own pineapple tree. My reading suggests letting it dry out a few days before planting. I will keep you posted as to the progress. I realize eating fresh fruit isn't exactly trying out a new recipe but it was the best I was willing to do this week. Hopefully next week we will be a little cooler.
