I LOVE this thread. I look forward to it every Saturday. (And this week I’m also looking forward to the pear tart recipe promised last week.) Blessings to all from a very hot and dry SC. The fire ants are moving into all my raised beds. This morning one was carriying off a radish seed before I could get the soil over the row I’d just planted.

Tomorrow will plant some spinach...zone 6....just love it in omelets. Planted lettuce a week ago...it's up. I just use the outer leaves.

Picked 5 lbs cherry tomatoes this morning. Picked 7 lbs 2 days ago. Might have 10-15 lbs to go.

Made sauce and 20 packages of cherry tomatoes cut in half. I fry them with onions, bacon or whatever and a couple slices of cheese (protein) for lunch.

Thank you for the compliment! We’re all working hard to make this the go-to spot when people need a break from politics. ;)

And, your wish is my command! I found this recipe online at least a decade ago. Been making it ever since to RAVE reviews. I don’t know who ‘Joan’ is, but we all owe her a debt of gratitude! You can substitute any other soft/canned (drained!) fruit for the topping.

You DO need a Tart Pan with a removable bottom, though you can substitute an 11” spring-form cheesecake pan with the removable bottom. The tart pan makes a more lovely edge though, IMHO.
