This afternoon, the iFarmer and I dropped our kids off for a week of cousins camp in NW Indiana.
I’m having some mixed feelings as I miss my kids, but know they’re already having a fantastic time with four of their cousins.
To cheer me up, we’re having some adult fare at home tonight, starting with cocktails and olives.
But the best part was the second course, an easy peasy Watermelon, Dill & Tomato Salad.
I’ve been trying to figure out what to do with a boatload of dill from my CSA last week. I know how to use it with lemon and fish. But we took a risk by mixing in some items we had on hand tonight.
Here’s the recipe…
Each serving:
Slice of watermelon (seeded if you can)
Rough chopped dill
Two thick slices of fresh feta
Two slices of tomatoes
Salt (to taste)
Olive oil (drizzled)
Balsamic vinegar (drizzled)
Arrange watermelon, feta and tomato on plate (overlap if you can); salt tomatoes; top with dill; and drizzle olive oil and vinegar on top.
I would never have paired dill with watermelon if I didn’t have an overabundance of it in the house. Yay CSA!

Nice meeting you at Blogher, however briefly! Did you see the article in Sunday's Chicago Tribune about the farm that opened the restaurant? Very cool. If you're ever in London and need some tips, let me know!
