The Last Day of Summer 2011 Thursday #448

How's that for a convoluted theme?

I think a nice bowl of chili and some jalapeno cornbread is in order.

I made a batch of bread - for the first time the other day - It was pretty spectacular.....The only thing wrong was that it needed the pinch of salt the recipe called for, that I left out.

I'll be back later with a DOTD. I have to get this party rolling...

DONE?

Still good, fresh local tomatoes available, I'll contribute some tomato mozzarella salad to the party! With fresh basil, and a little balsamic vinegar ... yum!

All you have to do is slather a slice of bread with real butter, and not the low or no salt variety, and you'll never miss the salt you left out of the recipe.

I never use salt in baking anything anymore and I can't even tell the difference.

Chilli sounds yummy, but it's too warm for it today, but I'll take some of Karen's salad and some of that bread - please!

Everybody beware of falling space junk tomorrow.

Could I bring a favorite jalapeno jelly to put on that homemade bread? It has a real kick to it & wakes up all the taste buds on a persons tongue.

Chili and cornbread sounds perfect! I'll bring some grated cheese and sour cream to top the chili with.

Patiently waiting to see what the DOTD is. I'm thirsty!

I'm trying to think of a DOTD that has sumpin' to do with "space junk" but I'm a bit flumoxed at the moment. Any ideas??

Corn bread (phunny thing, I just made some Pepper Jack cornbread this past weekend!!) and Chili sounds scrumptious. RICHARD, did you get a chance to taste Slicks chili while at Gini's a few years back? Best I've ever eaten

LOL...maybe they will name a drink after space junk. We could create our own. Maybe something with Tang in it since that is what the Astronauts used to drink.
