A picture of Bahn Mi Won Ton Cups. It's a beautiful mini salad in a baked won ton skin.

This past fall, I had my first Bahn Mi sandwich for lunch at my favorite Pho restaurant near my house. It’s pretty much a perfect sandwich.

A picture of Roasted Squash and Sweet Potatoes with Cranberries on a plate ready for Service.

This past summer, I had a prolific vegetable garden. I grew tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers, peppers, tons of herbs, Australian Blue pumpkins, and Delicata squash. The Delicata outperformed everything leaving me with no less than 50 squashes. I gave a lot away and probably still have a dozen left! That’s what prompted this recipe. What is

A picture of Old Fashioned Sorghum cookies on a plate.

Back in the day before Covid and we were traveling in the RV, we marveled at the beautiful fields of Sorghum, especially in the late summer when colors are deep and rich. After a bit of research, while we were on the road, I learned that sorghum is mainly used as a feed for livestock.

Here we are, well into 2020 and a new decade! It’s a bit surreal knowing that I’ll be turning 50 soon and I vividly remember that when I was a kid or even in my 20’s, thinking that 50 was old as dirt. To tell you the truth. I love being as old as dirt.

  Well, I don’t know where you live but here in Colorado it’s been scorching hot. I’m talking like in the 100’s hot. We haven’t had this kind of heat in at least 5 years. In my book (and my dog Tommy’s book) it’s too hot to do anything productive outside. It’s really been awful
