Patti - I als...Thanks for your comments, everyone.<br /><br />Patti - I also thought it was a brilliant piece<br /><br />Robin - Yes, I'm so glad it's spring with fresh herbs and tomatoes to take us away. Better than Calgon<br /><br />Troutbirder - I hope you catch the SNL spot with Spicey using the fire extinguisher and shouting that very phrase<br /><br />Bug - Here's hoping you will be back to 100% by this time next year. And sooner than that.<br /><br />Jan - A large Caprese salad and a few ears of corn make many a summer supper for me.<br /><br />Vicki - And yours are even better than mine since they come directly from your garden to your kitchen. No middle man needed.<br /><br />Joared - We typically eat only whole grain bread. But in the summer I have to have white for my tomato sandwiches. That's the only time I eat white bread.<br /><br />Ginnie - I totally agree. I use store bought only during winter for mixed salads. And we often omit the tomatoes and use dried cranberries instead.NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-38285877774534814032017-05-13T21:12:16.029-04:002017-05-13T21:12:16.029-04:00A big slice of tomato (fresh from the garden), Duk...A big slice of tomato (fresh from the garden), Dukes Mayo and white bread.

I always had said I didn't like tomatoes as a child. Then my aunt persuaded me to try a tomato sandwich with the big red juicy fruit we picked from her garden.

The curse of retirement. I love getting my Lucy fix. And bless her for being oblivious to all that we must endure. The good thing is that it all looks like it will implode on its own. Ahh. <br />"The incompetent are often blessed with an inappropriate confidence buoyed by something that feels to them like knowledge.” I thought this brilliant and explains a lot.
