Nice! Did you eat that whole steak by yourself?
Are you kidding, with six cats I was lucky to get some... they can eat
faster than I can slice... I think they ate more than half.My cauliflower and cabbage were small this year but still very good.
But my first attempt at growing celery surprised me, what a difference
from store bought, a rich aroma, remarkable flavor, and it's the
crunchiest! And I have five more still in the ground. Now I need to
perfect my celery growing, I need to plant them much closer together,
I found out that they grow more compact if they touch and they will
also self blanch... the one necessity however is a long growing season
(5 months) and plenty of water. I think anyone can grow celery, needs
very little space, a square foot will easily grow four bunches. So
now we know what to plant in that wet spot.You'd think after that nice dinner I shouldn't be hungry, but I'm
starving. Why, because I get my flu shot tomorrow and at the same
time I'll get my yearly routine fasting blood test, no eating/drinking
from 9PM.Sheldon Eieio

Interesting about growing them close together.Quoted message said:

medical stuff.nancy

those I mentioned a while ago that were too good a price to forego. -

And after all that [censored] you do about "freezing steak ruins it
- only dumb wops freeze steak!", there you are: Cooking a thawed,
frozen steak.Either that or you've been aging it in your fridge for almost 2
months.Doh!

Great looking garden stuff! That's the kind of stuff I can't grow because
my shady yard makes for a really short season. Are you going to be able to
eat everything before it over-matures in the garden or do you have a method
to avoid that?

One of mine does, and one doesn't. And I had a cat for 20 years
who never touched it. -

use it to spike a blend of Fresca and orange soda. -

I should think so. You don't mix good things with Crystal Palace.

Good observation, it was still about half frozen.

This time Fresca and orange soda... I've been known to use black
cherry soda with a wedge of lime. -

Wish I could do that. But, the Italian woman across the street made a face
when I offered tomatoes. Said she hates them. Offered basil, and she asked
what you're supposed to use it for. House to the right: While devouring some
snow peas back in June, her son asked "Are these vegetables?" His parents
seem to eat nothing but meat and bread, and have politely refused offers of
lettuce & various other things. The kids still come over, though, to
self-medicate. :-) -
