Final Tally

12 quarts of tomatoes

8 pints of tomatoes

10 pints of green beans

6 pints of Corn/Zucchini Salsa

1 burned thumb and 1 tired fat guy.

Not shown are dehydrated zucchinis and a cool whip container full of fresh salsa in the fridge.  All from one trip to the market and a few ears of corn from the crisper.

Local meal-week 6

August 5, 2007 · 1 Comment

I’m pretty darn late this week, in fact past the cut off, so if I don’t make it this week I understand. But here’s our meal. And yes, the camera date is correct. It took me this long to get it on the computer.  The worst thing is that just about every meal would qualify so I have to do is take a picture.

8-5-07-001.jpg We had fried corn with red onions, a green bean/squash/tomato saute thing I made up (not very good), more blue potatoes baked like chips, a slice of watermelon and some homemade bread.

Non local ingredients were salt and pepper everywhere, flour and yeast in the bread and the olive oil and ketchup on the potatoes.
