I LOVE making that Balsamic Reduction for putting on - just about ANYTHING (or just eating it with a spoon, LOL!) It’s great on fresh garden tomatoes.
Something else that’s REALLY expensive to buy, but cheap to make yourself.

Made a Peach Pie this morning and canned some V-8 juice. Waiting for the grass to dry so I can mow; we got 1/2” of rain last night in about 15 minutes! Lots of wind, but no damage other than some branches down and leaves PLASTERED to everything. More rain Sunday night.
This season is evening out beautifully, weather-wise. So thankful!
New puppies are doing great. Dolly (retired Beagle) and Arikara (Plott Hound) are out hunting our woods; I can hear them from the porch. Sioux (much younger Plott) has has had Second Breakfast and is a sleep in her kennel.
Oil & rosemary are out of the food processor & infusing. As soon as I can start draining, I will be on to making slaw.
Pulled all the onions out of one raised bed and I will have more than enough to go on the roasted veggies sheet pan and I have a couple that will slice well for hamburgers. I love onions!
Tons of green peppers & I only have 2 plants - 1 bell, one Giant Marconi. I have never ever had pepper plants do so well!
So much fun to be able to go to the garden & gather/pull your own produce!
I do a fried egg sandwich some mornings and it somewhat goes like this.
Thick sliced pepper bacon, lettuce, very thin tomato slices, toast buttered with olive oil infused butter, and a fried egg that was broken while cooking in bacon grease. I often add a shot of Louisiana hot sauce.
