a ‘jimmy carter meal’ part 2 . . .
by mulberryshoots
Here’s our dinner in honor of Jimmy Carter:
3 vegetables: cucumber soup, creamed corn, summer squash;
corn muffins;
and a glass of cold buttermilk!
Made from vegetables from farm stands ready to go on a Sunday afternoon at home. I noticed that it was a delicious meal, made from simple recipes whose tastes complemented each other in a soft and tasty way. Moreover, there was not a hint of obligation to be “vegetarian” – no moral tone to undercut the meal at all. It was just vegetables, cornbread and buttermilk.
I’m thinking we could do this pretty often from now on!
The only thing I might have done differently would be to make the corn muffins from scratch than from a Jiffy box. But the muffins were very quick and easy.
We raised a glass to Jimmy Carter and to his wife, Rosalynn – and hope that their days may be filled with grace whatever comes their way.
