This looks so good. The meatloaf is all Italian sausage? I would like that.....rough recipe please? Also the squash...roasted with cheese on top?

I made the best thing I've ever done in the Ninja yesterday. Cantaloupe sorbet. Melon from our garden. Pureed --about 2 1/2 cups. Simple syrup--3/4 of a cup. Mixed together. Frozen overnight. Sorbet setting. O M G Can't wait for watermelon to get done. Question for all of you smart people: I want to make more of this but I don't want to make it into sorbet yet. If I freeze the pureed mix (melon and syrup), will it be ok? I'd thaw it out then refreeze in the proper container later when I'm ready to make more.

@weinooRonnie would love those pork chops. I should order some for him..... Mushroom/spinach/canadian bacon/pepperoni calzones Salad Sunday night Ronnie did beef steaks on the grill Garden potatoes, tomatoes, and cheesy cauliflower along with Last night was pasta salad and turkey sandwiches again.

I'd say they are about 7-8 inches long on average.

Happy Birthday to Charlie!!!! Everything looks sooo good. I've been craving 4 bean salad....and I'd prolly wipe out about 3 of those deviled eggs.

Thank you thank you thank you! I missed that.

It was time to change the oil in the Vacmaster 215. Now I'm out. I'm dumb about oil. Will this work with my unit ok?

I'm a blancher.....I've done it before without blanching (no butter) and I just didn't like it as well.

Made a big batch of sauce so I could start building up my stash in the freezer. So spaghetti and venison meatballs happened. Ronnie came home with some beautiful pork belly on Thursday so had to have that with tomatoes sprinkled with onion, a bit of rice vinegar and dash of sesame oil. And Asian salad My egg rolls and frozen potstickers (that are surprisingly good) Belly Yesterday I did another cold smoked turkey breast in the SV. Turned out much better this time. Had to make bread for the sandwiches. Garden shishitos Fries

Put up the last of the corn yesterday. As per @rotutsinstructions I added a pat of butter. Because butter makes everything better

It's been raining since before dawn. Very much needed. Feeling cozy and lazy today. A bunch of cantaloupes were ready to be picked yesterday. Delivered some to friends and family. Kept two for us. Snacking as we speak. Very sweet and juicy. Some of our best ever.

My order window doesn't open until Sunday at 3 pm. If there are still some, I'm buying and I'll let you know

Goooood point. I don't buy clothes..I live in VERY old t-shirts and leggings. Haven't gotten my hair done in 3 years.... Back on topic I'm jealous that you can go to a market like that. I need to google and see if there is anything like that close to me..... you never know...

PHEW! That is very hot for you up there. I feel for you You are such a good dad

I ADORE fresh flowers. I never buy them for myself. And no one really sends them to me lol...need to buy them for myself Those posies are precious. Reminds me of May Day which no one seems to celebrate any more.

Thank you Kenneth!!!!! I know it's a lot of work to take us along 😬!!! Where are we going next? 🛫 I need to know what kind of clothes to pack 😁

Welcome Jeff! Can't wait to see your cooking!

Misfits tells me that they are offering a Kent mango. Are those any good?

I had a one day burst of energy lol. I am feeling way lazy today...... don't feel sloth-like (I think sloths are so adorable). Jam seems like a daunting task to me!!!!

Yes, my dill is all done in the garden . I like the dill at the Asian Market a lot better and it's way cheaper, but I didn't want to drive all the way there and Misfits had some...so...yeah....laziness won out lol. Ronnie uses a couple limes and half a lemon every night in his evening vodka soda--he likes a lot of citrus flavor. I use limes in salsa....that green enchilada sauce.... Lemons I squeeze over my shishito peppers and with fish.... Love lemons when roasting a chicken. I really like just having citrus on hand.

I don't think I have...if I did it was years ago. We love them in tomato juice and bloody mary's. If I get a glut I may have to do that!

That's the thing, though, they aren't stuck together. Two separate fruits. I've seen ones that are conjoined...but never two separate on one stem

First (any maybe only lol) beans from the garden. We will see if they spring back after this heat breaks a bit. Look at these fat hogs just sprawled out in there. This is only one group. We're gonna have a lot of melons if the raccoons leave them alone. And, all you smart people. I've never seen this happen in my garden before. Two cantaloupes on one end. Is this weird? Do I need to keep these seeds because a miracle has happened lol?
