Update for today

I'm planning on making a cantaloupe granita soon, from this recipe. It occurred to me, last time I was eating cantaloupe, that it's got a great texture for a sorbet. But then I found the granita recipe. I'll probably end up trying both, since it's so hot here and I've got the time.
Along the lines of new recipes, tonight I made Spaghettini with lemon zest & chives (except I used linguine) and paired it with sautéed portabella mushrooms and Swiss chard in a balsamic sauce. I thought there was too much butter in the pasta, but other than that it was good.
I won't be getting any broccoli from the garden from my first plantings. We got invaded by cabbage looper caterpillars.

We're still trying to keep them going, but I'm not going to get my hopes up. It's still pretty early in the season (given our region), so I think we'll be able to try again.  From seeds though. I should go ahead set up to sprout some seeds.
