Mussels
When I met Hubby, I had never had lobster, mussels and quite a few other things. Turns out we both love Mussels and they’re SO EASY to make. We usually just throw a bunch of stuff in a pot, but here’s an attempt at a recipe:
Steamed Mussels (by ME!)
1 pound of mussels
1 cup white wine
1/2 onion – chopped
3 cloves garlic – minced
Pour everything into a big pot. Be sure to throw out any mussels that are already opened.
Cover pot and put burner on med-high. When mussels are all opened, they are done. Serve with wine sauce.

Wow, I never knew this was so simple! Definitely beats the canned variety.
Wow, your growing season is way ahead of ours – no local tomatoes yet. That’s the best kind to have with your homemade mayo but, even tho they’re not in season yet, I think it’s time to make my first-batch-of-the-season mayo.
After all, there are so many other things it’s good with.
