    Using good salt is a bug kicker too.  Each slice got a different salt.  Yum!
    Yum, indeed. What kind of salt you working with?

    A tomato sandwich with mayo (or miracle whip) and salt and pepper is a singular pleasure.
    It's astounding how many Americans don't actually know what a real tomato tastes like.
    Read an article a while back about the tomato business in the US. Fucking sickening. But yes, agreed. What you get in the store is not a real tomato.

    oh yeah. meatballs and sauce made with san marazano tomatoes on top of fusilli and some ricotta.  I absolutely love this weekly tradition.

    Salt....use a variety of salt from all over.  Had Viking oak smoked mountain salt from Denmark, Himalayan crystal pink, sea salt from El Salvador, Cypress black flake, and my standard Hawaiian red.

    Ohhhhh shit. Did it right tonight.

    Started out with some Brie and honey. Dinner was meatballs with a herbed pasta along with caprese salad and fried long hots. A bottle of nice Pinot noir too, of course.

    You're killing me! That sounds sooo good! But what are fried long hots?

    My tummy couldn't handle the peppers, but the rest of it?  Cliffy best not ever post his full name or address, otherwise he can expect a few hungry people on his doorstep.

    Pepperoncini or banana peppers?
    (Either way, I'd devour them!)

    I didn't check the zucchini patch last week because I thought the first planting had petered out.
    I found 3 arm size zukes.  Whoops.
    Thick skin, big tough seeds, pithy center.  
    No problem, hollowed them out and stuffed them with DiRusso's Italian sausage (is that a thing everywhere or is that local? It's the best commercially available by a mile.) sautéed with onions, garlic, sweet and hot banana peppers, from the garden, of course.
    Topped it with fresh sliced Sungold super sweet cherry tomatoes, fresh grated Asiago and mozzarella cheese.  Obligatory drizzle of olive oil, of course.
    Yum.

    That sounds amazing. Not familiar with DiRussos but not much better than good Italian sausage
