What are you cooking or baking today?

Sliced, lightly MW-ed, and froze some zucchini that'd been in my crisper for a few days. Cut up and froze a yellow and orange bell pepper, same reason. We've all learned the hard way that fresh produce is a quickly use it, freeze it, or lose it, proposition.

I pulled together a big salad with some greens, a red bell pepper, carrots and celery that were likewise mellowing in the crisper. Dolled half or it up last night with kalamata olives, artichoke hearts, pickled daikon & carrots, pickled ginger, tomatoes, seared tofu and some other things I can't bring to mind and had it for dinner.

Planning on eating the rest of the salad for lunch today.
Yakisoba with tofu and plenty of veggies for breakfast. πŸ˜‹
 
My new fridge came around noon! I have the drawers & shelves put in. It's cooled down enough for me to start putting food in it now. The old one is on the porch waiting for Lowe's to come & pick it up so I can get my refund on it. I got an Amana with the freezer on the bottom & fridge on top. It seems like it has more room in it than the side-by-side which was 1.5 cubic foot bigger, but maybe it's just my imagination.

Hubby cooked some beef ribs on the smoker so I'm getting some leftover backed beans & greens. I wish I would have thought to make some cornbread to go with it, but it's too late now cause I'm hungry & I don't want to wait.
 
I am not cooking or baking much these days except for my sourdough bread.
I've heard that making sourdough bread is more productive when it is made in cooler climates. Do you find this to be true?
The church lady that I was buying some from, well...it wasn't very sourdoughy and I heard it was because our climate is too warm. Plus, this last time she burnt the bottom. Needless to say...that's the last time I will be buying from her.

I feel like it rises better in the summer.
