I guess it will be something with tomatoes.  My plants look like shit, but a few of them are producing nicely.

the plants look like shit because they are funneling all spare resources into fruit, not leaf... it's a good thing!

i just had the most amazing lunch.  my cooking is rudimentary compared to what you guys do but I'm always so proud when i try something and it's good.

today was onions, spinach and basil all fresh from my own garden sauteed in olive oil and red wine vinegar over pasta.  so frigging delicious,  fresh and almost free!

ha!  tonight i managed too!  it was onion,  spinach and grape tomatoes.   it was kind of slimy   i think it was too much spinach and maybe too much oil?  the taste was ok but the texture wasn't nice.

Ground beef with a little chopped bacon mixed in for seasoning.  Lots of water, and a wee bit of scotch.  Kind of boring, but tomorrow I will wake up feeling great.  No possibility of gastric distress.  Steady emotional state with no mood swings.  Probably some fractional movement on the steady downward trend in body weight and fat/lean ratio.  Definitely no migraines.  Another day in paradise.

Last night I sliced up fresh tomatoes, basil, and a bit of oregano (all from my garden) with olive oil, kalamata olives, a few spinach leaves salvaged from the ones going bad in my fridge, garlic salt, pepper, a little Italian seasoning, and goat cheese over vegetable rotini pasta for a yummy pasta salad.

Roasted brussels sprouts in the oven with olive oil, sriracha, salt, and honey.  (Came out MUCH better than when I tried them on the grill and didn't cook them quite long enough.  Also helped to slice the really large ones into fourths instead of just halves).

Fresh jalapeno peppers stuffed with cream cheese and proscuitto and drizzled with honey.

We haven't had much time to cook lately, so it was nice.
