I made a carrot soup which is delicious. Will have BLT wraps with arugula for the "L".
Last night with the grandkids before I move into my new place, so I'm aiming this at them!

(146,218 posts)...just got the smoker and this was the maiden voyage...the chicken was marinated in a pineapple base and smoked for two hours in mesquite. I thought it was real tasty!

Edit: catnhatnh - that looks AWESOME!

perhaps an asiago-crusted chicken breast used in some form or another, maybe over spaghetti and marinara.
It's been raining all freaking day, and I've only been able to get out to pick briefly, so I haven't even hit 8 gallons yet. On the other hand, looking over my recipe notes, I've already probably got enough berries to make something in the neighbourhood of 10 dozen plus jars of jelly, which suggests that it's time to stop letting the patch take over any more of the yard, and start focusing on other crops, like putting in more of the cherry bushes and getting the blueberries up in production.
(Edit: Just got out to pick during a lull in the rain, and NOW I have 8 gallons total, so back on schedule

(106,886 posts)I've got lots of greens, veggies on hand to make a decent salad. Just need a protein and a a kick. So, it's curry & tuna in the mix.
Plus, it's warm here and I'm looking to make something simple - just slice, dice and toss.

(35,675 posts)Ah, the first tomato! I know that feeling.
I was lazy today. All I did was work on computer problems, of which I have many.
Wanted a pizza and even assembled the crust ingredients, but didn't get it made. I guess I just didn't feel very industrious, so maybe I'll make it tomorrow.
Thus I caramelized some onions and put them over a beef patty.
Then I had some watermelon for dessert. There was also a little lemon sorbet in the freezer, so I knocked that off.

p.s. Exciting about your new house, cbayer! Hope to hear more in the future. And fizzgig, you, too! I hope we hear about your interesting day going to see Bernie and meeting a fellow DU-er.
