What are you eating?

[KRonn]

I got into making bread, got myself a bread machine. So far the bread has been great; been using it instead of store bought.  I have two recipes for white bread that I really like. Still learning, trying new recipes. Finding which I like, and trying breads like corn bread and others.

Over the summer I got a ton of veggies from my garden. Corn, tomatoes, beans. Lots of beans, the pole beans, which keep producing more than bush beans. I planted a lot of those three veggies. Corn was delicious, tasty, sweet and meaty in texture. So many tomatoes; gave a lot away but I've been eating a lot of them too. I had one cherry tomato plant - darn thing spreads out, needs its own zip code! Got tons of tomatoes from it. Planted lots of beans, too many, lol. I have about twenty packages frozen in the freezer, and those will last me a good while.

Took a lot of work though, for the garden. Between bugs and critters eating the young leaves, killing plants. I had to replant at times, and put down some critter repellent. Also sprayed a lot of hot pepper spray, which kept critters and probably bugs from eating the leaves. I also used some spray pesticide early on, not a lot though.

I have seen a Jamie Oliver video where he prepares a sirloin steak not just by dry rubbing it, but also coating it in olive oil in the end before letting it stand for a while.  I have tried that as well.  I like the results.    The steak came out medium, but that's probably preferable for fatty cuts of meat.

You really ought to eat less sugar and more red meat.

"You'd deny your own father an Eggo frozen waffle from Kellogg's?  With extra batter to make them man-sized??"

I thought the dad was gonna kill him for a second.

Making an oven pancake with bacon. Lingonberry jam with that, and a grapefruit afterwards.

I use olive oil on all my steaks and roasts now as a first step.  That way it never sticks to the grill. And grilling - as we all know - is essential to the proper cooking of meat.
