We aren't getting any rain either, and the veggie beds need some. I made a big deal about being kind to the deep well pump today, while filling buckets to water the beds. I forgot I had a load of laundry on too. Oops. ;-)
What kind of dressing do you use/make on the tomato salad TC? And which herbs?
By the way, do you know anything about cooking eggplant?
Yes, I cook eggplant a lot.
The salad just has olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper for dressing, and Greek oregano and basil. Also a red onion and some garlic. Before we go, it gets cubes of toasted Italian bread added.
It’s 102 here. If we don’t get storms tonight, I’ll need to water everything.
I found a fire ant nest - right next to the driveway where I step out of the van! I’ll call the exterminator tomorrow; DP says it’s covered under the contract.
I know how to cook it ... I just want to try to freeze it. My plants are putting out so many we can’t eat them all when they are fresh. One for a meal is great but one every meal is a little to much. LOL
I like poppy-seed dressing on almost any salad. You can even make your own!
(Yes, I have the recipe.)
I’ve just been to the best Mayflower website on the ‘net, and have decided to go ahead and join the society as soon as I can scrounge up a few bucks that don’t need to go anywhere. It’s the least I can do to honor the “lusty young man” who was washed overboard in a storm, then recovered to marry and have a HUGH descendancy.
Not bad for an indentured servant!
