I do mine at 350F on steam bake--15 mins. I brown mine in a skillet first.

One for me is Pork with Red Curry Braised Watermelon from Deep Run Roots . The watermelon turns into something so different after the braise. You'd liken it to tomatoes.....amazing stuff. I can't wait for a melon to grow so I can make this again.

No corn worms, but I did find huitlacoche 😁

I needed another smoked chicken so Ronnie did one yesterday Zucchini and rice casserole

I have to keep Ronnie from finding out about that free stuff up there. Otherwise we'll be driving to Manitoulin once a week for groceries.

Us too!

I didn't say anything about this when I did it because I wanted to see if it worked first. We've always had those awful corn ear worms get into our sweet corn. Most all of the ends were usually gnawed up and then you'd find one of those ugly worms and have to pick it off and squish it. Ugh. Anyway, I tried something new this year and it seems to have worked! Basically the instructions tell you to put 5 drops of corn oil mixed with a BT (Bacillus thuringiensis) on to the silks of the corn just when they start to turn a bit brown. The oil acts as a barrier to the eggs that the moths lay that turn into the worms. Adding the BT makes sure to kill the worms as they begin to eat the silks. I did switch up the instructions a bit. The 5 drop method seemed to fiddly so I took a clean spray bottle and filled it with the corn oil (holds about 19 oz.) along with about a 1/4 tsp. of the BT. Shake it well. Do one squirt per ear on the silks that have started to brown. We've picked 4 ears so far and not a hint of worms. We will see if that trend continues and I'll update here.

Shrimp alfredo with some crispy butter fried mustard greens on top. Found one lone KC strip and one lone venison loin in the freezer so Ronnie grilled those last night broccoli salad

That sounds really good. I'm going to have one when I'm done in the garden.

Agreed. It'll be just fine

Those look perfect. Mine have gone down hill in looks, but they still taste good. I think I do worse with the mold I bought.

You guys are making me want to get my back up from downstairs and open it up. contemplating a bedside CSO...........

Spam is also excellent in fried rice.

Or a roasted chicken 🙃

Bet you make some toast 🙃

I have granite countertops and have never had a problem. Also, my cabinets hang over mine about like @blue_dolphin's do and I've never had problem with over heating them. I do scoot it out when I use the steam. @Smithy your cabinets look like you have more clearance.

WANT

Just wanted to pop in and say I'm sorry for not making bread for a couple weeks. Life has been busy. I hope to resume in the next few days

Made a pot of spaghetti sauce to go over zoodles Then last night--the first sweet corn from the garden! Not quite done yet, but close enough Lemon chicken OH and the first green beans, too--with our new potatoes. A truly summer time meal for us Peach pie for dessert

Nope, you're not alone. You should see my basement.

YES!!! Good to know. I knew I wasn't really 45.

Yes! We're twins Edit: PS I hope you feel better asap.

I've never had poutine and I WANT to. Looks delicious.

😵 That's the way around the bad luck!

I can tolerate cherry/grape tomatoes with their vicious peels intact. Just barely.
