Another zucchini carpaccio and Italian sausage and pepperoni pizza

Testing out a recipe for zucchini soup that I can freeze so that turned into breakfast this morning.

Nope not blurry a bit and it looks good!

Spaghetti red using zoodles

Ohhhhh that looks so wonderful! And the tuna. I so wish Ronnie liked sushi.... I think the combo you did sounds like the perfect summer meal. I'm so glad you tried it 🤣 I love that movie

Ohhhh yeah! Sigh I paid 69 cents a lemon last time. I use quite a bit of citrus with cooking and Ronnie likes limes and or lemons in his water and evening cocktail.

I am super devastated that you had to buy squash lol. I'd gladly give you 20 or 30. But so glad you liked it! I've done it with all different types of cheese (not blue cheese) and have loved it every time.

Sure

I'm so glad they liked it!! I've made it at least 3 times this summer.

*scratching @Kim Shook off of the "leave zucchini on the porch" list* Hell, she even grates it up for you!

Had to do something about the squash. It was overtaking the kitchen. Gave some to friends and the in laws. Well...I should say we left it hanging on their mailboxes in bags. Who knows if they want it or not 🤣. Then I got the dehydrator out and I'm drying some to vac pack and use over the winter. Today I'll make a batch of spag. sauce. I always think I'm making headway until I pick the garden and come in the house with more than I used up the day before lol.

Unless the raccoons cart them off it looks to be a good year for watermelons and cantaloupes. I'll probably be starting a cantaloupe topic soon. Ronnie thought he was planting cucumber seeds and they were actually cantaloupes. We have a lot of plants lol. Picked anther batch of sweet corn. This wasn't as high quality as the last, but it'll still eat.

I just pre-ordered too. Maybe they will release it earlier. I can't wait!

A new book!!!!!! Oh you've just made my day. I can't wait! And your grits look excellent too

I am sure we must be twins.

Happy Birthdays to @kayb and @Norm Matthews!! I had periodontal surgery on Wednesday. Ugh. Not supposed to eat anything with seeds, but oh HELL no I can't not eat tomatoes!!! Hopefully I don't get myself in trouble lol. Ronnie caught some catfish yesterday so I did some up in beer batter.

Picked a few ears of sweet corn yesterday. Used the marvelous vacmaster. Got about 7 servings packaged up for us. Should have a lot more if the damn raccoons stay out of the garden.

Explains why there were none to be found today. Wasn't thinking about folks using them to put up garden stuff.

Ugh. I bought a bag of russet potatoes the other day. They looked fine from the outside at least half are rotten on the inside. Not much smells worse than a rotten tater.

@liuzhou skip this post, it will be traumatizing First of the sweet corn! Ribs--cold smoked, then in the IP then broiled and @Jaymes squash along side

WOW! Thanks for all of the descriptions and pictures. Rob I wish you could send all of that to Kansas . Chris, that's funny about the walleye. That is our favorite fish and they have been very hard to catch in the last few years. At most of the lakes that we go to the length has to be at least 21" and those are few and far between. All this to say that that dish stood out the most to me in the pictures. Oh and the hen's yolk is something I'd love love love to try. PS. Those eyeball pillows always freak me out lol.

@liamsaunt Could you tell me how you make that zucchini salad?

Before dinner--cukes from the garden and homemade ranch dressing Made a couple loaves of white sandwich bread So we could have the first BLT's of the summer

@Dejah Good to see you, you've been missed!!! Don't be such a stranger please I always enjoy seeing your meals.
