I grew corn, potatoes, three or four varieties of beans, maters, okra, melons, cukes... and so on. It was just SO damned cool to go out and "pick dinner" in July, August, and September. We had a chest freezer full of home-grown produce that lasted us through the winter, too. Ah... past lives.<br /><br />Cassettes. I have a pile of those things and they get some significant airplay in the house, but NOT in the car. Dang it.<br /><br />wv: yisdamp.

Two slices of whole wheat bread, slathered with mayonaise, and with two fat mater slices, lightly salted and cut real thick. Hmmmmuumm. <br /><br />Onliest thing is, I ain't got no garden. Guess I'll head down to the Publix and make do with some of them there "Ugly Tomatoes." They're not too bad but nowhere near as good as your home grown ones will be. Enjoy the fruits of your labor. As for the squirrels, don't get me started again!Dapper Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01230099347154360809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193860341876403275.post-41045649967032880882010-05-23T20:06:43.728-05:002010-05-23T20:06:43.728-05:00Paul, that will be the tricky part.

The garden looks great, and the hydrangea is lovely (of course the correct southern pronunciation is 'hydrainger').<br />I stole the picture of Grand Isle from The Wounded Bird, who I believe got it from nola.com.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12927133938857523885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193860341876403275.post-62864020646666388892010-05-23T16:52:18.764-05:002010-05-23T16:52:18.764-05:00Dude, the maters are bangin'.
