My Supper!

[mtnhomechick]

Ever eat a meal that's simple but fantastic?


Tonight we had BLT's. Homegrown bacon and tomatoes. Raised pig last spring.

Cucumber, tomato and onion salad.......all freshly picked from our garden. With a simple sour cream, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper dressing ( homemade ).

And one of my favorites......cottage cheese with fresh chive and onion.

It was better than any steak dinner I have ever had. I just love this time of year.

That is just not possible that it was better than steak. That can't happen. It's impossible.

Oh yes Debi it is totally possible but only if that was thick sliced smoked bacon.

mtnhomechick~ I miss living in the country so much. Growing my own things and stuff BUT you live in a very special part of the world. One that I hold quite dear to my heart because you my friend can get REAL cane syrup. The kind that comes in a paint bucket and you have to literally dig it out with a heavy spoon. Not molasses but old fashioned cane syrup. It is really heaven in a can.

Ya Know.........I never tried cane syrup. But I'll be sure to now.

I just think this place here is special for many, many reasons. I love it down here.

Oh and yesterday........a mere memory...I had broccoli for lunch. Yep, just plain broccoli. Picked it........cooked it.......and ate it. Yum.

If you have never tried it please do. When looking for it make sure it is in the paint can. If it is not then it is not the right thing. The stuff is thicker than honey and it has almost a cola color and a very distinct aroma. The only place I have ever seen it is back home (east texas) and in the southern states like where you live. It is definitely a country thing. Not suburbs but real out in the sticks country. lol
