I hope not. More people will be unemployed and go on welfare. dcarch

Suppose you want to publish a book? And you are not ready to share? Supposed you promised a friend who gave you the recipe never to share that recipe? Many other reasons. That's why there are many fake recipes out there. dcarch

It's best not to have the recipe than to get a fake recipe. So, How do you deal with a very good friend who askes you for a recipe which you really don't want to give away without offending him/her? dcarch

Thank you. ----------------------------------------------- Warning!! if you are using squash blossoms, be very careful to examine the inside of the blossoms outdoors. If you grow squashes, you probably notice that squash blossoms are very perfume-my and they attract a lot of bees. Half the time you will find bees and other insects inside. You don't want to get stung and have bees inside your home. Agree. Like heidih said. The key is to be very careful in the use of minimum and simple batter. Even so the extreme heat of frying does evaporate a great deal of the delicate fragrance that you can enjoy if you eat the blossom raw. dcarch

Why fry squash blossoms? All you are tasting is mostly fried batter. It is too hot to cook and too hot to fry. So I made a salad, with squash blossoms stuffed with goat cheese. Wonderful floral fragrance if the blossoms are not cooked. Also, garden tomatoes with cold tofu. dcarch

It is too hot and too humid to cook. Tomatoes from the garden and pulled pork from the refrigerator, and called it dinner. dcarch

Relative humidity foretasted for the next 10 days in NY area will be 100%. In other words, air will be completely saturated with moisture. Perfect weather to kill off tomato plants. Hot and humid, ideal for all kinds of fatal deceases. :-( dcarch

13 Is A Lucky Number I was so confident about the competence of the rescue teams, I knew the 13 guys will be out of the cave all safe. So I celebrated in advance yesterday. I made Thai coconut basil shrimps for a congratulatory dinner for a good job well done. dcarch

Blossom Set will fertilize the blossoms. Just spray on. When used for tomatoes, you end up with tomatoes with very few seeds. I wonder what that would do to strawberries, which have seeds on the outside. dcarch

Have you considered using Blossom Set? dcarch

Those large bones when you buy a whole pork butt/shoulder, I cut them with my wood shop table saw with a carbide blade. Quick and easy. dcarch

Ha! thinned out strawberry jam in a squeeze bottle. I did have trouble making him understand 9 (blue berries) stars means 9 states. New Hampshire was the 9th State. :-) dcarch

1. Select the best variety for your zone. 2. Start seedling early. 3. The seedling needs to go thru a fake winter. To set their buds, artichokes need a period of vernalization, at least two weeks of cold temperatures below 50°F, but not freezing. dcarch

The Art of growing Chokes Yes, finally, after trying a few years in zone 6. Very encouraging, it's only the beginning of July. dcarch

1. As I said, you need to use watermelon that is not too ripe, otherwise the steaks will be too sweet and fall apart. The best is to grow your own, so you can pick them early. 2. Cut watermelon about 3/4" thick, remove rind, basic seasonings - garlic powder, pepper, and fish sauce. 3. Grill or CI pan fry till fork tender. dcarch
