I knew a guy who named his daughter Stormi Wynter Snow

We've got a Summer-Joy Autumn-Leaf studying in our law faculty. I can just imagine the reaction of the judge when that name comes up on the docket.

The attack of the tomatoes is on!
The best time of year, imo, there's nothing better than a tomato and mayo sandwich on a summer day with a nice pour of anything tasty

Cheers!

Love me some Home Grown Tomatoes!

Mmmm....A BLT would be heavenly!
But The Spousal Unit thinks she'll get more mileage out of me without the bacon

Cheers!

Ran across this image in my Gallery. 2015 the Bride and I went to Albuquerque to the Balloon Fiesta. Had planned to attend this year in October as well. Unfortunately another event cancelled for 2020 due to the Pandemic.

Wife and I did that about 10yrs ago. Was fun, but not sure I'd do the "festival" again. I don't know the area well enough, but ideally a camp spot up in one of the foothills. Imjust not really a festival/ large crowd kinda guy.

Nothing better than an MLT, especially when the mutton is nice and lean

If you can get them, add a thick slice of sweet red onion!

 

[day_trippr]

I love red onion, but it'd have to be locally sourced given the nation-wide salmonella onion alert...

Meanwhile, almost tripped over this ~13" megasquash, it was hiding so well. Fortunately, unlike zucchini, big summer squash can still be quite good. The Spousal Unit made an oven version with one using shallots, diced toms, garden basil and some butter and it was hella tasty...

Gees, you can't have a BLT 'cause your spouse says no bacon...now afraid of red onion, yeah I saw the alert, also just had made some chicken salad with one...from the store too, and raw..(the onion that is, chicken from the yard and nice slow cooked).

You can say "I told you so" . iffn I get sick tomorrow, but them onions did not get me yesterday, so maybe keep yer bet low......

Got to live 'tripper,... have an extra beer tonight or something, you don't even have to go to work tomorrow, do you? and get some bacon for your BLT, heck, you don't have to buy the cheap stuff...(or do you, out of habit that is) I even use organic iceberg lettuce, spectrum organic mayo, homemade bread, and of course vine ripened home grown organic tomatoes, started from seed....

P.S> like those crookneck squash too!..way better than zukes or regular yellow.

 

[day_trippr]

"Got to live". Ironic, as that's what I'm trying to keep doing here
Sure AF not going to risk that on onions when we can buy farm-growns a mile away...

Cheers!

Big zucchini are still good. Cut them in half lengthwise, core out the seeds and stuff with sausage, mushrooms, onions, spinach and cheese. Very, very liberal with garlic too. I cook these indirect on the grill or baked for about an hour and they are delicious.

I've treated them like any other stuffed bell, topped with marinara, used beef or chicken and any other fresh vegetables available.

Hahaha! It does sound tasty, but it must render the poor zuke unrecognizable under all that. I bet it'd work with bluefish, too
We're James Beard (rip) fans here wrt garden veggies and aim towards "simply fresh" characters...

Can't understand why it would be canceled. Look at the pic--it seems naturally social-distancing.

I'm kind of a Fergus Henderson nose-to-tale fan as well as a would-be professional procrastinator if I ever got around to it. I know I will inevitably miss a zucchini and will wonder "where did that green monster that wasn't there yesterday came from." I (poorly) attempted to waste as little as possible and to take advantage of everything the garden produces. I look to make use of everything and I almost guarantee any zucchini crop will yield a couple monsters. Something, something... waste not, want not...

 

[day_trippr]

Yeah, that crook neck wasn't the first unnoticed rogue in the garden We thought we had picked everything that was even close to ready before we took off for our annual Family Week on the Cape of Cod, but still came back to a crapton of monster cukes, a bunch of bigger-than-you-aim-for crook necks, peppers that were dragging their plants down, and enough toms that The Spousal Unit will be saucing a bunch tomorrow...

"First-world gardening problems".

I'm currently waiting for the habs to be ready so I can make some cheese-stuffed bacon-wrapped nukes

Cheers!
