Sum, Sum Summertime Thursdays #483

[RICHARD]

Karen, your joy is jumping off the screen.............I fully understand..........enjoy every new morsel that you haven't had in years.

Richard, Kirin would be wonderful.............and thank you.

By the way - how do you know what rubbing alcohol tastes like? still I say YUCK!!!

Desperate times call for .............How did I know there is a difference between alcohol and isopropyl alcohol?

(I used to use alcohol to clean my face.......it was a mistake to use it so close to my mouth.)

One Kirin!

Done.

-----------------

Karen,

One of my faves this time of year is zucchini, corn, tomatoes wrapped in foil and cooked over a BBQ fire.

Lemon pepper (or a squeeze from a real lemon) and a shake of parmesan cheese makes me happy.

More corn?

DONE!

Did I hear someone say zucchini???? One of my summertime favorites! I LOVE zucchini bread, but even one better??? - fried zucchini! I think I'm going to have to fry some up and watch my cholesterol jump up a few notches. Anyone care to join me???

O.K. I will buy that!

By the way - hey, Lady's Human, Dad wants to know if your rhubarb is growing this well ....





And yes, folks, that was picked before the last 2 days of rain!

Posting this does not make me want rhubarb pie any less!


However, I am now enjoying some yummy strawberry tea, anyone want to share?

[Lady's Human]

No, it was a BAD winter for rhubarb out here. THe weather was so crazy I'm surprised it survived. I'm going to mulch it in with horse manure this fall, so it should do better.

I'll pass on the tea and take some rhubarb, please. I haven't had any in years, and I usually get it from an Amish farm near here. I don't think I've ever seen any stalks that big!

Yes, even Dad is surprised at the size of it this year! Maybe 3 stalks and you've got enough for a whole pie! Gotta call my sister for the pie recipe, and then raid the church garden, where they foolishly through they plowed over the rhubarb, and it came up fine regardless!

[Pinot's Mom]

Hey Barkeep! I'll join in on the Dim Sum, and boy do I have a contribution for the party! I have 20 litres of Gekkeikan Sake in the wine room to share (if anyone wants to hear THAT story, let me know) - help yourselves!
