Truly cool. Thos caterpillars grow at an astonishing rate.

Well I do like things grilled. The smell says summer. To me this weekend is Santa Maria tri-tip at beach house but oh well. All the kids I fed over the years considered the meatballs an appetizer and came back later for the noodles and sauce.

At my cottage which was on a huge lot, I never had a snail or slug unless imported on the bottom of a purchased plant. The guy before me was a massive gardener-talkin 40+ rose varieties etc. He used the carnivorous snails and whatever they did I stil years later reaped the rewards. Amazing.

Not a gravy or meat pie girl - but one year a nerdy Canadian across the street - engineer/patent developer took me through his steps knowing I was a food person. It. was. really good. Not something I would make but I appreciated the intro

Great harvest. So you are not out at night with a flashlight plucking slugs and salting them in a bucket. My friend Majella used to delight in that. Her vegan daughters shudder

Don't we all?!?

Well we get the point My sheep rancher love in Wisconsin often uses similar phrases when asked where he tends his sheep.Have not visited yet.

Well ya omitted the lime jello so you are golden. Cabbage is such a sturdy player. Not done bacon as it tends to dominate if you use smoky stuff. but tart apples, craisins - many things find themselves in the mix. I think I mentioned before the study chewy Chinese noodles boiled in a soy broth. All the kids still remember fondly. These are kids with a well rounded palates.

Oh no - over is not a realistic mindset but availability for delivery is still good. I knew your tag line reminded me of something. Lillian Jackson Braun's main character located "400 miles north of everywhere".

Love the feta fondue. The flavors and accompaniments are great. I would prefer this on fresh Arabic bread in series of small bites. Hard to eat as a burger. But cooking for ourselves gives us the luxury of pleasing ourselves.

Oh I have tried customer service with the big kids, not just the generics - "we will get back to you". Is there no quality control on foil or plastic wrap? It is over compressed and squished at the ends so it does not unroll as it should. Those bags looks great for the pops and a nice presentation when gifting. I have no allotted freezer space but it is nasty hot here - 97F - so just looking at Kadir Nelson's cover which is pinned to my board cools me a bit. Rocket pop - right?

Ya just have to be deft with pastry (not daft) Sure it was fine

Wow that was something Baffert-hey dude. Hope your race along snacks and beverages were good. Authentic - true to his name

Thoroughbreds are temperamental but like pitbulls - total love bugs - in my experience

I obtained a mechanical mentor late in life versus the bozos who would say I was just not paying attention. There ARE good men!

Only if it is not the right fit for the job in my experience - and I am a klutz

No do not dare complain. Beautiful. I am so so carving good fresh fish but not in the cards

Well you are not in Asia where that would not be an issue

Never seen lobster as a loss leader a most Americans run from boiling a live critter.

I think you just jump on it or use a padded hammer thingy Do not hurt yourselves with a pick My experience of many years as I have given up on the always breaking down ice-maker Plus Smart & Final had lime flavored that were heaven in heat.

Perhaps mint julep inspired popsicles

I have been dragged to Jongewaards several times by a dear friend who adores their chicken pot pies. She offers me tastes but not my thing though the pastry is well done. https://www.presstelegram.com/2018/03/01/breakfast-delights-chicken-pot-pies-make-jongewaards-in-long-beach-a-favorite/

Some of the most prized sea urchin globally comes from Santa Barbara off the Channel Islands in California. I enjoyed this recent article and the video. https://www.seastephaniefish.com/press

We had those - gummy Mallomars and Scooter Pies. I only ate them when my sugar cravings were out of control and there was nothing else. To me the concept is the most horrid version of the melty gooey perfection of campfire s'more. I know you can use the Fluff which stays soft (my sister kept a jar hidden but NO
