i have never seen anyone in my family cook with fresh garlic. to be honest, my family doesn’t cook with much of anything that is “fresh.” there is lots of dumping out of boxes and cans which works out ok and it’s how i was raised but now i know better. i, myself, love slicing and smashing and dicing things that had recently been growing on a vine or buried in the dirt. on a whim i decided to buy fresh garlic for the sage risotto. since opening the first bulb and using 4 cloves i have been randomly grabbing it, inhaling the wonderful garlic smells, and looking around hoping that no one catches me do this. i admit it to you, internet, because you know how i feels and i always keep it real with you.

i was really behind on blogs these past few weeks because i was too busy groping produce. to my deeeelight You Grow Girl’s latest installment was on propagating garlic…from garlic. garlic is so awesome it grows itself. i am in love. garden. next year. i’m so there.
