Simple Saturday
Grilled balsamic-marinated chicken thighs
Garden vejables (cooler penners, beans, chard)
Nuketater salad
Pickles
It was pretty good. Neighbors were blowing stuff up at 4AM yesterday. Likely I'll fall asleep soon.

Re: Simple Saturday
Basically we've been eating a fair bit of chard this summer because we've been growing some in the garden, and when we cut off some leaves, they keep coming back.

Re: Simple Saturday
sounds like collards are they similar to collards or mustard greens in taste? or do you know what those are ?

MUCH more similar to a cross between spinach and beets in taste. Depending how fine you chop the leaves, they'll be done in fifteen minutes or less. They lack the bite of mustard greens and the 'heavy' flavor of collards.
I usually throw diced onyawn and smashed garlic in oil, sautee a bit, add the chard, let cook covered, and finish with a touch of brown sugar, red pepper flakes and soy sauce.

Yes, celery, usually a mix of green and white onyawn, mayo, a squirt of mustard, some pickle juice, salt 'n' pepper. Sometimes we toss in a few other things.
Can NOT grow celery here, alas. But for some odd reason we can re-grow the stubs in water.

Hijacking my own thread, but there was a Vietnamese eatery here decades back. They had great battered, pan-fried ham and chez sammiches, but the fried potato side was SUGARED.

She was raised in the Cotton Fields of the Ark Mississippi Delta and I accuse her all the time of being raised on a Sugar Cane Plantation - - - - I thought I'd be "cute" once and asked her if her Mom used Sugar Cane as her pacifier - - - she didn't think it was as funny as I did
