For Dinner Tonight?

We took a rib roast out of the freezer to cook outside this weekend. It isn't really a summer thing, but the weekend is supposed to be beautiful weather, so we might as well eat it up. Now, to decide on some nice summery sides. Tomatoes...

That sounds so good. I'm having a steak tomorrow, with some corn pudding and some type of greenery.

Ratatouille. It's eggplant and tomato season.

Sounds tasty.

I see some gumbo in my future.

Getting a load of tomatoes from a friend's garden tomorrow. BLTs!

DROOL!!! Grilled pimento cheese sandwich.

BLTs sound so good! Alas, no garden this year, mom has no tomatoes yet in her garden. No idea whats for dinner tonight, had a huge salad last night though (store had lots of salad greens on clearance earlier this week).

Spare ribs, salad, and coucous. Some specie of white wine.

Ate late lunch, so skipped supper. Mexican food for lunch - yummy veggie burrito with more veg than cheese. Quite tasty. I wish I could have pico with a side of burrito.

Scallops on the grill with grilled pineapple and rice.

That sounds wonderful.

Mmmmmmm.........

last night it was a huge chunk of watermelon after having a couple tacos.

Steamed shrimp. That's it. YUM! It's shrimp season.

BLTs. The most amazing tomato from the farmers' market. I only have salad sized ones here, so all BLTs are courtesy of other people, and they are SO good to us. I love summer food.

Grilled cheese sandwich. It was on sourdough with a nice cheddar.

That sounds delicious. I need to get some good grilling cheese. I think a grilled cheese and tomato sandwich would be good. Have lots of tomatoes to eat.

Chicken that's been sitting overnight in a peanut coconut sauce. The tomotoes are just about played out here.

Crab cakes with a tomato salad on the side. (Tomatoes, salt, pepper, really good olive oil, basil) Tomatoes are going strong, and my volunteer plants are showing some Camparis and grape tomatoes from winter seeds that were in compost that hadn't quite finished. They are still green, so I think I'll have late season fruit.

I'm so jealous.

Eating crab everything is required in this part of the world at this time of year. I forget that not everyone gets the luxury. October will bring oyster season at the close of crab season. It is good to live on the Bay.

Tonight was quesadillas made with the leftover flour tortillas and cheese from Saturday's steak tacos. It wasn't anything fancy, but real tasty for a busy day. We have some excellent salsa from my dad's farmer friend.

Kayak picnic day with grilled sausage, pot luck sides, and ice cream. I hope the rain holds off.

Lamb chops, broccoli with cheese sauce. You don't think I'm eating stuff naked do you. maybe some polenta. Red wine.

Sounds delicious. I'll be right over.
