Dinner 1870s Style
May 28, 2010
Hopefully the third try at blogging will be the charm here. I’ve been reinvigorated by a busy week answering gardening questions for friends, and then the dinner I whipped together tonight….
It’s been a banner year for my tomatoes. I think the hard freezes this past winter but a big dent in the insect population. It also helped that the weather this spring has been fairly cooperative. It got warm but not too hot pretty quickly, and was not too rainy and not too dry either. These are the tomatoes I got off of just one plant on Sunday:
When the tomatoes are ripe, I like nothing better than a BLT on toast. I didn’t have any lettuce tonight, but I baked a loaf of bread, whipped up some home-made mayo, and fried up some bacon from the hog my friend raised for me last fall. Washed it all down with a dark ale home brew. It would have been difficult to get more “home made” than this!
