Had sweetcorn for a couple weeks. Had the last ear the other night so I did it right... A t-bone, salad, melon.

Finally, tomatoes from the garden! Had a real summer lunch yesterday, a mater sammich on white bread, mayo and cracked pepper. (need to make a batch of mayo). Had chips, cantaloupe and watermelon for dessert.

This is a good news/bad news post. The bad news is I took one for the team. I ate some beef jerky that was three years past the expiration date with no ill effects. Didn't taste any different than new. No gastric eruptions afterwards. More bad news: I dug out an old MRE, BBQ beef to be exact, and ate it for dinner. If that is what our GI's ate, I have no idea how we ever won a war. It was dreadful. I can only surmise that our adversaries were eating worse. It would fill the void if you were starving, but I wouldn't eat another one voluntarily.

The good news is this is what I will be making for dinner Sunday night. We are going out with friends tonight, so it can wait a day. The even better news is that the Wal Mart close to me stocks a product called Mirepoix. It is minced onions, carrots, and celery in one small container. Saves all the time chopping. Just dump the container in the frying pan.

 
We dispatched a boar the other night.🐗

Q: How is dinner cooking?
A: Slow Cooker


I LOVE my slow cookers. I literally use it more so than my oven! I love the fact that I can "Throw and Go".

On The Menu: Stew
Made With:
Mixed Vegetables, Rice, and of course...Hog Meat.🐗
 
I have been making a different veg from the garden every day. Yesterday was Swiss chard with Korean bbq chicken ( our cornish cross ) and rice
day before cabbage casserole with ground lamb
today fennel , carrots and sausage ( the sausage is from the store, can't believe the prices) and potatos
