Food Blog Tidbits and Shopping List for August 27 to September 2

As many of you have noticed, I have been somewhat of an absentee blogger this week as I had to go to jury duty. I had wonderful guest bloggers who covered the blog for me but I promise that this coming week I have tons of great fall recipes–everything from quick weeknight meals to more fancy fair for entertaining. But for now, if you missed anything, it’s all right here!

Why You Should Eat More Fish

Thanks to Michele, a native of Hawaii, for telling us about this important but often neglected aspect of our diets!

Basic Sweet Roll Doughs

Although this is a recipe, the ingredients are not included on the shopping list because they are staples.

Don’t forget to stop by the produce aisle and stock up on all that in season produce. Check out Michele’s blog on End of Season Produce for great ideas on what to do with it all!
