High Summer at Pie Cottage

07/20/2021 By Kate McDermott-Art of the Pie 8 Comments

High Summer at Pie Cottage Everything is coming on strong in my little Pie Cottage garden and orchard. I have been enjoying eating and sharing kale, beets, strawberries, broccoli, and more. The tomatoes have been setting blossoms and I’m seeing their fruits plumping up on the vines. I have twelve plants this year and when […]

This Week in the Garden: June 10

06/10/2021 By Kate McDermott-Art of the Pie 2 Comments

I just came in from harvesting strawberries from the garden. I’m hoping to have 2-3 gallons to freeze this year. Rhubarb has been coming on for over a month and as long as I give it water I’ll continue to have stalks during the summer months. Today I’m rolling out some dough that I froze […]

Celebrations

Rabbit Rabbit Yes, I say it when awakening this morning. “Rabbit Rabbit” ensuring, hopefully, good luck all month long. It’s a superstition in Britain and North America, and I’m sure we can all use a little extra good luck. Right now, I’m in the trenches on

It’s Getting Close

04/11/2019 By Kate McDermott-Art of the Pie 27 Comments

It’s Getting Close It’s getting close now. Sunday I depart. Yesterday a dear friend, who travels on the cheap six months out of the year which I think qualifies her as being a well-seasoned practitioner of the craft, comes over to share with me her hints for packing.
