Morning all,
Much cooler today and overcast, so will only be in the 80's today. My poor garden was wilting badly yesterday but perked up from some late watering. I need to get outside and pick some tomatoes, zucchini, peppers and cukes. I found a canning recipe for a hot cherry pepper hoagie spread that I'm going to try soon, just waiting on more peppers to ripen.
Went to Sam's yesterday and there was only one kind of tp in the whole aisle. Please don't tell me we're doing this again?! And only one type of paper towel. Sigh.... I did buy some ground beef, beef stew meat, and London Broil because the price finally came down again. And some Steelhead Trout, which is one of my favorites. I'll make some today for my father. He loves fish, but my mom is allergic so they never make it. I try to make it for him every so often.
We stopped on the way home for Burrata, which I cut up with some fresh tomatoes and basil from the garden.... yum! I'll do some London Broil on the grill tonight with salad and not sure what else yet.
The neighbors have been very quiet, although the teenage boys are giving us dirty looks when we're outside if they see us. Too bad, don't shine a laser on my security cameras if you don't want the police to get called. So far no damage to the camera they were shooting the laser at.
What is up with the spider population this year???
They're awful. Every morning I have more webs on the steps to the deck. A month ago it was the gnats, now the spiders. Could be another sign of the Apocalypse, just based on how this year has been going.
However...if you really want to get rid of the neighbors...round em all up and let them loose near their doors one night
That's a great idea! Do you want to come help me? I actually hate spiders! LOL! I'm not afraid of any insect, including bees and wasps, but spiders creep me out. And centipedes! We get those too.
Someone mention the "chicken club?"
Always love to see your chickens! I wish we were zoned for them, because I would have them.
Posion Ivy on arm is the worst. Leave it to me to figure out how to get it on left forearm and ankles.
Aw, I'm sorry to hear that it's still bothering you. One time I got it under my watch band, and it made a complete poison ivy bracelet around my left wrist because of how it spread. I threw the watch band away after that. I also seem to touch one part of my face and spread it before I know I have it. Ugh! That's why I now wash with the Tecnu every time I come in from weeding the flower beds or by the bushes.
Will look it up to see if any stores local sell it.
I hope you can find it. If I get it really bad, I have a steroid cream from the doctor that works well too. I think it's halobetasol.
Thank you!
Glad that this thing that is heading towards us sounds it'll be a weak storm. *Crosses fingers that the power doesn't go out*
Is this Hurricane Isaias that you're talking about?
Anything on the grill goes well with corn on the cob!
Absolutely!
Yum, I like corn on cob grilled.
That's my favorite way to cook it in the summer too.
We do peppers and onions in a foil pack, on the grill too
We do too, and sometimes potatoes in the pack. Such a handy way to cook without heating the house with the oven and stove.
Well my part of the state was put into time-out on Tuesday. No alcohol sales after 10 p.m. and no gatherings of more than 50 people because our region's numbers have ticked up. Oh well, I guess it could have been worse.
Oh boy. Our cases are rising again here. Both in the county and my city.
British bacon is delicious and quite different to American bacon.....especially locally farm produced that`s not mass marketed.....
We don't have British bacon, but we do get our bacon from the local butcher and there's a definite difference between that and mass produced bacon.
I do like egg yolks......don`t eat them (very often) as they don`t agree with me...I miss poached eggs.......
My hubby has issues with eggs sometimes too. I would cry, as Hollandaise is one of my favorite sauces. That is one thing I taught my kids how to make very early.... a good Hollandaise.
Made some mojito ice cream tonight.....will try it out tomorrow......
Sounds yum! I may have mentioned once or ten times... Mojitos are my favorite cocktail! So I may be stopping by later.....
Tough day at the dentist. 2 hours of work done (crowns had to be prepped). Old fillings had to be removed. It took 4 needles to numb my mouth ( that never is needed!!).
Oh no! I hope you're feeling better today.
We had corn on the grill last night. It's really the only way I like to eat corn.
Another grilled corn fan! Now I'm going to have to go to the farm to pick some up later. All this talk of grilled corn has me hungry for it.
They will be opening next week for the Coasters and Craft Beer event.
Interesting. They cancelled so many things up here. The time limit sounds like a good start to keep people safe.
Have a great day!
