News from the Nest, October 2

Impact-Site-Verification: 1112067530

Welcome, October!

I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.

Lucy Maud Montgomery, Ann of Green Gables

My whole demeanor changes when I can turn off the A/C and throw open the windows. I crave the cool, fresh air that comes with fall.

We planted our fall/winter garden this weekend. We will be growing broccoli, broccoli rabe, spinach, kale, arugula, lettuce and sugar snap peas. Well, we planted most of our garden this weekend; we still can’t plant in the bed that has the tomatoes. The tomatoes are hanging on by a thread and Terry refuses to pull a plant if there is a hint that it might still produce a tomato, no matter how small. After much discussion, we’ve agreed to revisit the issue this upcoming weekend.

It’s a Giveaway!!

I’ve got a treat for subscribers of Nourish and Nestle today! The Brot Box, a US-Germany Artisan Bread Bakery, sent me a sample box of their baked treats and offered one reader a box of treats! Yes, I’m serious! Their artisan bread is crafted by German master bakers using all-natural ingredients and no chemical preservatives. Then, the bread is shipped partially baked and frozen, ready to pop in your oven for just fresh-from-the-oven goodness. They’ve also offered a 5% discount on all purchases made from the site with the coupon code NOURISHANDNESTLE.

If you are looking for a gift for someone who has everything, this is a great idea!

To enter the giveaway, pop on over to The Brot Box, and peruse their offering of Artisan Breads. Then, come back over to this post and tell me which baked delicacies you would love to show up at your front door. I will randomly choose one winner to receive a box of Brot Box baked treats. Make sure to leave your comment by Friday, October 6 at midnight, EST. This giveaway is open to U.S. residents only.

We enjoyed the Swiss Farmer’s Loaf last night with soup and salad and it was remarkably delicious, with a soft, flavorful interior and a hearty, crunchy crust.

New on the Blog

  • Simple and uncomplicated, this Chicken Vegetable Soup is one of those meals that soothe the soul and warm the heart. We render a bit of chicken fat from cooking skin-on chicken breasts and then use that fat to saute the onions and celery. Just that little bit of chicken fat adds some lovely flavor to the soup. We enjoyed this soup last night with The Brot Box’s Swiss Farmer’s Loaf and a simple spinach salad drizzled with this Curry Dressing. It was perfectly simple and perfectly delicious.
  • At the risk of offending mum lovers everywhere, I’m just not a fan. To that end, I’ve compiled a list of fall (and a few winter, depending on where you live) blooming flowers. So, if you need some fall and winter garden inspiration, check out this post on Fall-Blooming Flowers, That Aren’t Mums!

  • This sweet Grace Baby Blanket was named for its recipient, the granddaughter of my oldest friend. It’s replete with rosebuds and ruffles, just perfect for a little girl. I used a chunky yarn, which made this a relatively quick knit.

From the Kitchen

  • It’s officially soup season in the Northern Hemisphere! This White Bean and Ham Soup is not the thick and creamy soup you might be familiar with, but a lighter, brothier soup.

  • Zucchini Air Fries are officially our favorite way to enjoy the zucchini from our garden.

  • I don’t know why I think this appetizer is particularly suited to the fall! It would be just as good in the summer. But, be that as it may, this Rosemary Goat Cheese with Ginger Preserves is one of my favorite fall and winter appetizers.

  • If you love carrot cake and would love to eat it for breakfast except for the little person who sits on your shoulder and says, ‘You really shouldn’t eat cake for breakfast,’ then I have a treat for you! This carrot bread is made with less sugar, letting apples contribute some sweetness. So, now you CAN have your carrot cake and eat it too!

  • But, if you really want a cake, then this Yogurt Plum Cake is really yummy. Yogurt imparts a gentle ‘tang’ and helps create a lofty, tender, and moist cake, while butter adds trademark creaminess. Toss in a bite or two of sweet plums, and you have a winner.

  • Kitchenaid Professional Stand Mixer is on a great sale through October 7 at Target. Need to join the free Target Circle loyalty program to save $170 on the mixer! That’s a GREAT price.

    2. Well, sadly, I have to eat gluten free and my husband usually does also except for his bread. He loves rye bread and I would love to gift him a loaf as I am sure it would be delicious. Really enjoy your blog!

      1. Hi Janet,

        I feel you! We MOSTLY eat gluten free, but do make exceptions from time to time, like your husband. And Rye bread would be my exception as well.

  6. The Brotbox products look amazing! For me, it’s a toss-up between the Rye Crust Bread and the Swiss Farmer’s Loaf. Since I eat dairy-free, I love that their breads are vegan. Yum!

  7. As a lover of bread-baking myself, it was SO hard to choose a favorite from the Brotbox site! What an amazing concept! I think that appeal to me most are the Stone Oven Burli Bread (just looks so yummy) and the Low-Carb Power Rolls (because it would be amazing if these taste as good as they look). Thanks for the opportunity to possibly win the chance to try some Brotbox breads!

  8. Hello!

    This bread looks lonely for a yummy bowl of soup! If I had to pick just one, I’d go for the Stone Oven Bürli Bread — but the Germans’ Favorites Small box is a good place to start!

  25. Lynn,
    I always love reading your articles on Mondays and I am usually sharing them with my gardening husband. One of your knitted dishcloth patterns have become a staple for me. I have made them as gifts for friends and for my adult children’s homes. I am sure I have made 10 or more of them. I have found they are a perfect project to do while watching TV at night. Thank you! As far as what baked delight. They all looked yummy but if I would have to choose I would say the pretzel or rye bread.

    1. Hi Joy,

      Thanks so much for your kind words. I love what I do, but it is all the more fun when reaaders like you find my articles useful.

I most look forward to trying the Brötchen, and the premium seed bread looks yummy too! Please pick me!,

  43. Oh my gosh! All those breads look delightful but the Brotchen is a favorite among our family still living in Germany! They would serve them every morning for breakfast. So I would have to go with that!

  44. I went to university in Munich and it is October so top of my list would be the pretzels . . . and a nice stein of German beer but I’ll hunt that up myself! I do enjoy your blog Lynn. There is always something interesting 🙂

    1. Hi Carla,

      Of course! Those would be perfect to celebrate Oktoberfest! And thanks for your kind words about the blog…I do love this job of mine!

  45. Oh my goodness, all these breads look so delicious. I think the ryr, sourdough or pretzel rolls would be my first choice.

  46. Dear Lynn,
    You are always such an inspiration to me. Your posts cover such a large area of topics. As a knitter, your baby blanket patterns are exquisite. Maybe some day I will make one!
    I would love to see the Germans Favorites Large Box arrive at my door. Not only does
    it remind me of my German roots, but also of Communion, where everyone is welcome. The breads are like different people of the world, but all related under God.

    1. Good Morning Lana,

      And thank you for your very kind comments! I do love what I do, but it is all the more enjoyable when I receive comments like yours! Thanks for taking the time to write in.

      That large box with all the Favorites is truly the bomb diggity! I agree. Fingers crossed. And what a lovely analogy.

  47. Oh my gosh, I want all the breads. Seriously though, if I had to choose three or four, it would be the Pure & Whole bread, the Pretzel Sandwich rolls, the Premium Seed bread, and throw in the XO Oktoberfest pretzels just for the fun of it. Such a great giveaway! I hope I win!

    1. Hi Michelle,

  48. I would like to be entered in the Brit Box bread contest. I love pretzels especially when they are hot and freshly baked but I’d love to try the pumpkin rolls! They look yummy and I think they’d be a seasonal favorite!

  49. Hi, Lynn,
    I looke forward to your posts every Monday – A great way to begin the week! As for the BrotBox, everything looks wonderful but the Brotchen, Potato Carrot Rolls, Stove Oven Burli Bread and Pretzels most intrigue me.
    Thanks for the opportunity!

  50. Hi Lynn,
    Just wanted to say ‘Hello and Thank You’ from Australia and to let you know how much I enjoy your blog.
    I have tried out many of your recipes and thought I would send you a pic of my last batch of Amoretti Cookies. I make them often and they disappear very quickly.
    I enjoy the variety of topics and try out lots of your ideas (I will start to send you pics of what I make). Keep up the good work and looking forward to the next email.
    Kind regards
    Karen

    (I can’t seem to post my pic Lynn, do you have an email address I could send it to?)

    1. HI Karen,

      I know I emailed you earlier this morning when I received that picture of your lovely and yummy Amaretti, but I needed to write again because I very much appreciate this comment! I so enjoy this wee job of mine that I stumbled upon several years ago, but without exaggeration it would not be nearly as enjoyable or rewarding without comments like yours to fuel me during the days. That you took the time out of your busy day to send this message is everything to me! So thank you so much! You made my day.

      Have a fantastic day on the other side of the globe! I guess you are in spring? Hope it is a lovely spring.

      Hugs, Lynn

    Thank you, once again, for another informative and entertaining “News from the Nest”.

Thank you for introducing us to The Brot Box and the chance to enter the contest. It seems like a great way to have wonderful bread at a moment’s notice!!
    Happy Fall.

  58. Lynn,
    What a great idea, bread delivery! We live a 100 miles from a real bread bakery, so I am happy to find out about such a service. The pumpkin seed rolls and the pretzels appeal to me on first glance, but honestly, it all makes my mouth water.
    As always, thank you for the time & thought you put into your publication.

    1. Hi Norene,

      I’ve got to be honest, this is really good bread! We’ve enjoyed the Burli Bread and the Swiss Farmer’s Loaf and they are both outstanding. Excited to try the pretzels this weekend. So many folks have suggested that this would be a great Christmas gift idea!
