These are Amish Paste tomatos.  I quartered them, lightly sprinkled with sugar, kosher salt, ground pepper, drizzled on olive oil and added minced garlic. Baked in the convection oven over an hour on 350.

The concentrated taste is so good. I originally thought to use them with the bread I made before the cruise.  This taste so good I might put some on a pizza.  They taste great by themselves but real strong. 

 

 

Yumms!!  🙂

I have decided if I can’t get a fresh turkey at the market, I could always go for this guy. He just jumped out of the crab apple tree, so he should be tasty. 

 

Bang...bang...dinner is served!!  😄

My bother who just moved from Middletown to Sunbury, planted some just last week.  If you plant them soon they should do good.

 Last year I grew Tiffen Mennonite tomatoes.  No kidding.  They taste great but we’re not productive.  Nothing against Mennonites but I am sticking with Amish.

Ah that is heaven to my ears.    I love eggs benedict with lobster or crab meat.     I have been craving eggs benedict too🤩

Sea Bass sounds delicious too - Enjoy.

Unfortunately, Eric did not catch any fish today so I cooked chicken marsala.

Have not made chicken or veal Marsala in years , but I love it , need to make it soon. We do order veal scaloppine  often at our favorite Italian restaurant.

I love Veal occasionally but Eric will not eat it so I don't make it at home but always enjoy when we are out to eat.

Did you use grow bag?  For not check them out.  The big positive is that they air prune which means you don’t have to worry about the roots.  I have found a 7 gallon grow bag to work Great for cherry tomatoes.  Cherry tomatoes are very forgiving.  Sharon loves them in cottage cheese.

 

No, but will look into that for next year.  I was at BJ's looking at perennials and saw the patio pot of cherry tomatoes or beefsteak tomatoes with a tomato cage built onto the pot and impulse bought the Fantastico cherry tomato plant. 😄

+1 please😍    I miss my Eva and Sparky and cannot wait to see them later next week.     I wish we had brought them to the shore with us but with all the different projects we had going on and I try to keep the place allergy free for future tenants so please give Samantha a hug and kiss from me too.    TY

I love both separately, but I never understood the combo together. It seems to be very popular.

 

Same here.  I don't get it but I see more and more places serving it. 

[HBE4]

I love veal. But I find that at most restaurants, it'll be either really, really good or really, really not good. There is no middle ground where it's just alright.

Best wishes for Sweet little Kennedy's surgery to be a success and to come home soon to his family where he belongs...

 

I might be super sensitive and I didn't want to drag this issue out in here but I would be remiss if I didn't mention that the superintendent apologized on behalf of the official who told teachers to present both sides of the Holocaust.   

Thank you,, Bonnie!

Definitely not being super sensitive....both sides of the Holocaust?  Horrendous😢

I love lobster bisque and I love Lobster.     Maybe someday you will try a Lobster tail?

The first time I ever had a lobster tail, I was 18 and was in a restaurant in Puerto Rico with my girlfriend.  The tail was huge, and it was delicious!  After being back home, I went on a double date with my friend Lorraine and her boyfriend.  I'll never forget it!  We were at the Stella D'Oro restaurant, and I ordered lobster.  OMG!!  They brought a whole lobster on a plate for me.  I just looked at it, and said I can't touch that!  My blind date didn't help me out at all.  Luckily, Lorraine pulled it all apart for me.  Needless to say, I never saw that guy again!  LOL!

I've seen it on menus, but always thought,  no way.  Seeing it on this plate though, is making me have second thoughts!  It's not like I'm even starving right now.  We've already eaten this evening!

Oh my lord...eggs benedict!!!  Yum!  I love sea bass, too!  Too bad Eric didn't catch any fish today, when you were craving some.  Chicken marsala was a good choice, though!

I'm always disappointed when the veal piccata I order isn't delicious🧐

Our favorite restaurant has surf and turf, filet mignon and a lobster tail, they are only open for brunch a few days a year but they then have eggs Benedict with lobster 😁, I believe I will order sea bass tonight.

I never ate any of the above.
