If she keeps making posts like that all of us meat eaters are going to gain weight

[glenn kangiser]

We'll have to plan another barbecue... [bbq]

[Whitlock]

Glenn why can't you filp a buger like that

Right now all I can think of is the smell of pork roast with onions and garlic and the taste homegrow tomatos with noting but salt on them.
Thats it I'm going to the kitchen

[glenn kangiser]

If I tried that it would end up in the dirt, but I do know how to light the barbecue...

Tonight it is pot roast for supper.  I put the leftovers from last night in lunches for DH.  It was absolutely delicious.

[Whitlock]

The wife just took a homemade wild blackberry cobbler out of the oven

See ya tomorrow,W

[glenn kangiser]

Ummm ---that is not nice, W

[glenn kangiser]

I don't know about you but we are having breaded fried Zucchini Squash and fried green tomatoes. 



  Some of my favorites.  Pass the Cimetadine please.

[Sassy]

DH kept mentioning that "some fried green tomatoes & zucchini squash sure would be good" so I finally made some.  I dipped them in egg & then flour - Glenn just likes the flour, I've always used a mixture of flour & cornmeal.  Fried them in organic coconut oil.  They did turn out pretty tasty   

[muldoon]

that looks really good.  when I do a fish fry I use flour/corn meal with some salt/pepper mixed for dry and an egg and half a beer for the wet.  for extra crispy the routine is dry mix -> wet mix -> dry mix -> grease.  yum.

I have used the grill all weekend.  Today was a homespun version of a philly cheese steak. 

This afternoon I took some very juicy peaches, cut them in halfs. sprinkled each side with cinnamon sugar and put them on the fire for about 10 minutes each side.  came out absolutely awesome, like peach cobbler goodness right off the grate in no time.   

Then took three ribeyes, some onions and bell peppers,  grilled them up with the steak coming in about medium rarish.  I blackened the peppers, then blanched them in cold water and peeled off the blackened burnt part.  The big yellow onions were just started to camelize.  Sliced everything up really thin and put them on the stove in a skillet with a splash of olive oil and about half a raspberry wheat beer.  They simmered about 45 minutes or so. 

Placed in a wheat hoagy bun and topped with provolone cheese that melted up all ewwy gewwy good. 

While not a true official philly cheesesteak, it worked for us.

You all do that on purpose I think.  Right at my bedtime. 

[Sassy]

Yummmm...  that looks right tasty, Muldoon!  We should have had you cook while you were here... ha - glad you made it home safely - bet your family is happy to have you home   

[glenn kangiser]

I actually thought it would be nice to have you doing the barbecue here, muldoon, but figured with all of the traveling and being away from home you would be burned out and needed a break - so mine had to do.  At least you got to see my ceremonial lighting of the barbecue.

Your dinner looks great.  

Poor John.

It does look good.  Our pantry and freezer are getting sparse again, except for dried beans, etc.  Got some fish in the  freezer, so I guess we can do grilled fish, maybe some rice, and I guess either a salad from the container garden or some frozen mixed veggies (thawed and heated of course! )  Spent all day on the stupid phone and computer trying to work out a deal with the prospective buyers on the house.
Big kids and I will end up doing lessons till their bedtime at this rate!

[Sassy]

Not really for dinner...  but I made some green tomato jam today...  I couldn't find HG's recipe, so looked on the internet - all of them called for jello - raspberry in particular.  I had to use black cherry because the store was out of raspberry...  tastes pretty good.   Another way to use green tomatoes.

[Homegrown Tomatoes]

Tonight it's going to be chicken stew.  Haven't decided if I'm going to put wild rice in it, or egg noodles (which I'd have to make because I don't have any on hand.)   I let the chicken cook overnight so that it is falling off the bones, so now I've got to get in there and debone it all so it'll be ready to throw together later.  It smells good already... kind of like when you put the turkey in the oven and wake up on Thanksgiving morning smelling it and can't wait to dig in. 

[glenn kangiser]

Now enjoying Sassy's beef stew for breakfast, Ice cream for desert.

I bought 6 ----1.75 quart boxes on the way home -- unknow to me Sassy bought 6 boxes earlier and I had 2 left.  We now have 14 boxes and about 6 flavors.  I'm working on it.

[Homegrown Tomatoes]

  You sure that's gonna be enough ice cream, Glenn?

We had pancakes for supper last night.  I didn't want to fix much, and buttermilk pancakes sounded good, so that's what I made.  Maple syrup and butter of course.  And lots of milk.


Tonight we ate with my grandma and mom... take out pizza. 

[glenn kangiser]

Pecan Praline...

[Homegrown Tomatoes]

Spaghetti squash 'sketti' tonight, and some grilled pork chops with cranberry relish, and salad from the planter.

My little girls made a mean broccoli cheese soup for lunch.  I stood by and coached them, but they did all the work and it turned out great.

[Homegrown Tomatoes]

Beans and cornbread for supper tonight... it's violin lesson night, so we have to do something that can be ready when we get back.  They're going on the stove now and starting to smell good already...wish I had a little bacon or salt pork to throw in.  Tuesday nights are half-price burger night at Sonic, so every once in a while we grab those on the way home, but until we're in a new house, we're trying not to spend any money unnecessarily.  Even when it is only $5 to get burgers for all.

Hows the lessons going HT. Is there any thing that you are able to recongnize yet.  Need to talk to that girl and change over to fiddle.

[Homegrown Tomatoes]

Well, that's already her intent.  I could see the disdain in her teacher's eyes when she called it a fiddle and announced that she wants to play bluegrass.  The teacher is good, but a little hoity-toity about her "violin".     I can recognize the first few bars of "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star", and I think she'll do just fine once she starts really playing.  Mostly they've just worked on technical aspects like position, tempo, etc.  So far so good.  When she uses the bow, it actually sounds surprisingly good, and she looks like she was meant to play fiddle.
