This time of year is especially glorious when local Farmers Markets celebrate their bounty. Cooking becomes more exciting with farm-to-table ingredients, in my opinion. Tag along as we get outside, soak up the sunshine, and fill the tote bags with garden herbs, ripe fruit, rich chocolate, and French butter. Think about outdoor grilling and lazy-day picnics in the park. I’ll give you recipes to celebrate life with good food! Some of my recent posts have been favored by the “Food Network” on Twitter (Snapshotsincursive@DornaGail) as well as Ina Garten, The Barefoot Contessa, on Instagram @gail_dorna. Come along for a glimpse of “Eating My Way Through the Alphabet: Sunshine Eats! This remarkable journey of the palate allows time with you. Thanks very much to all of my guests and followers on http://snapshotsincursive.com for the uplifting support, award nominations, and moving words of encouragement. What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? It’s as simple as A-B-C. I love to cook, and my husband loves that I do it often. Most recipes serve 2-4 people, but can be easily modified. Leftovers are golden morsels to be eaten later or shared with others. Seeing a smile of gratitude keeps me going. Feel free to contact me with questions. Now take a deep breath, inhale the aromas, and join me on a tasteful journey entitled, “EATING MY WAY THROUGH THE ALPHABET: SUNSHINE EATS!”
Sunshine Eats!

My congrats with your recepies that are favored on different places on the internet. Keep on the good work. We saw some things that could inspire us.

Gail, your blog is special and I’m glad I came across it. You have some wonderful recipes and ideas which you generously share with us. I look forward to continuing following you here even though we are now almost sugarless and since the beginning of this year we are reducing our meat and fish intake (the seas are so heavily polluted now)! We may not become fully vegetarian but we are moving in that direction slowly. 🤩😋💌🙏

For my husband and me, we focus on portion-control. Sure that means leftovers, but we are fortunate enough to have a separate freezer where I keep another meal frozen for next time. I don’t like to eat the same thing more than two days in a row, so it works for us. I also freeze pastries and bakery goods and only defrost small quantities at a time. It keeps us from losing control. Thanks for asking. Good luck. 🙏🏻🍃
