gumbo omelet

Yesterday was a day of culinary delights. For breakfast, I made gumbo
omelet. We are growing our own okra. We have lots of tomatoes,
yellow squash, green squash--more than we can eat or even give
away--and some broccoli and cauliflower in our garden. I used to be a
vegetarian, but that's harder now that I can't eat beans. This omelet
had sausage--hot turkey sausage, chicken, shrimp, mushrooms and a
plethora of fresh garden vegetables. And, if I do so says so myself,
it was quite delightful.

For lunch, I made "Spanish Rice" with fresh garden vegetables,
mushrooms and wild rice. That too was delicious, but I did not record
the occasion.

crikey and you did all that for breakfast! Looks and sounds wonderful! Great food photography too! We ought to make food a theme. Maybe you had better start a new theme blog if you can't get into the old one. And possibly give it the choice of wider format

Let's have it as an ongoing theme then but we could put it under August. Do you want to start a new blog though because you can't post to old one?
