A nice hearty meal. Would be even better on a winter night.

1. My dear applegrove!
I baked an russet potato, along with about a pound of salmon filet...

Simmered some corn...

We were hungry, and it tasted grand!

I love me some clam chowder! I've never had ciabatta bread.

:hi:

2. Ciabatta bread is a crusty italian loaf that is kinda flat. Lots of holes in the dough. If you like
the crust on bread you'll love ciabatta.

3. Too hot to cook! Had a ham-swiss-romaine-mustard on pumpernickel sandwich with leftover baked beans
and a tall glass of iced tea.

4. We've hand sandwiches a few times this summer. Lobster salad sandwiches were the most appreciated
ones I think. Yes. It is nice to eat cold on a summer's night.

5. i've been grazing on and off all night
had some crackers and string cheese, a bit of my leftover sandwich from lunch, a pickle, most of a bag of bagel chips, a bunch of giant black grapes. i'll probably have a bowl of cereal and maybe some cookies later.

we usually do this a couple times a week

7. Grilled pork chunks, cole slaw, corn, and watermelon from the garden.
Melon was a little bland, probably should have left it on the vine a few more days. We are not very experienced with them.

Nothing interesting here. I just figured out the dots help keep the text in view on this stupid phone.

10. Wife picked up Chinese take-out on the way home
Edited on Fri Sep-02-11 03:59 PM by OriginalGeek
I had stir fried tofu in spicy sauce and vegetable chow mein and an egg roll and some of her krab rangoon (krab with a "k" lol).

It was pretty good.


~edit - i keep meaning to reply to OP and instead hitting the reply button on the last post - sorry if you thought I was talking directly to you. Still getting used to this system which is quite different than what I am used to.

11. Fresh Wild Caught Shrimp (with the heads), seared tuna, and......
Caprese salad with arugula, homemade Mozzarella, Cherokee Purple Tomatoes and Basil from my garden, Baguettes, Cauliflower.

For sauces, a homemade tarragon mayonnaise and good old Heinz Ketchup-based cocktail sauce.

My 5 yo daughter, usually a shrimp eater, did not like the heads-on shrimp and had some turkey cold cuts.

20. Chicken burrito
I love a good chicken burrito, with the works. I have to go easy on the sour cream, but love the rest. Just fill it up. We have ones out here the size of wood burning logs! Just cut them into thirds and you have enough for three days! Yum.
