It is, in exactly the same way that Courgettes are tastier than Zucchini, or Aubergine is tastier than Eggplant.

They are basically the same thing. Today I had a chopped up dried apple slice, half a pear and an apricot in my warm porridge. Yummy.

This morning I made pineapple pancakes, with plenty of maple syrup and fresh pineapple, not to mention breakfast sausage, on the side. I know many people think pineapple on pizza is desecration; perhaps they feel the same way about pancakes. All I can say is, don’t knock it until you’ve tried it.

That actually sounds pretty good to me.

I bought a mini-waffle maker. Cost me all of $11. Makes waffles OK. But I found out a few waffles shoots my blood sugar sky high. So I won't be using it much. The plan had to make big batches, undercook them a bit and freeze a bunch. Brown them up under the broiler to perfection.

Tonight, we are having grilled fresh corn on the cob, grilled lamb burgers and a fresh tomato and green pepper salad.
The salad is fresh tomatoes and green pepper chopped and then marinated in virgin olive oil with chopped garlic. It sits for a couple of hours at least. The aroma is heavenly.
The lamb burgers have fresh mint chopped in them along with some chopped garlic, a little bit of oregano and crushed red pepper flakes, an egg, bread crumbs, and a little bit of sherry and
white wine vinegar.

Love our 30 yr old Belgian waffle iron - never fails. Makes one biggie that easily cuts in 4… the quarters brown up in the toaster real nice.

I stopped making waffles because I didn’t like cleaning the waffle maker ( which suggests to me I wasn’t making then right). Do you have any hints to keep the waffles from sticking to the iron?

I have a small silicone brush. I use butter to grease things up. Works very well.

We are in a heat spell, 4 days over 90. It is 87 in my apartment.
I put a can of salmon in the refrgerator in the morning.
I'll have chilled salmon and tomatoes for dinner.

Not much. I'm on a prescription that can cause nausea, and today was one of those days where it did. I had a granola bar early this morning, a a cup of Cheerios for lunch, and was able to keep down a couple of hard boiled eggs.
Green chile burritos sound good (the hole in the wall Mexican restaurant near my house has a really good one), but right now my stomach is saying "don't you even think about it."

I was on simvastatin at one stage and wasn't allowed to eat Grapefruit - which I adore.... so when my liver played up due to Sulphasalazine, and I was changed to a different cholesterol tablet, I rejoiced!

Dolmas, stuffed grape leaves, Greek food. No store within 20 miles of me carries them, but I can order them through Walmart. $3.65 a pack of 8. So I have been getting these. These really go good with a salad. Especially when I add olives, a sliced boiled egg, and sweet girkins. And a pack of Buddig lunch meat. And an avocado.

BLTs, made with a tomato as big as a slice of bread. In retrospect I should have gine for authenticity and used iceberg instead of red leaf lettuce.

This was delicious. We used 4 very large garlic cloves, and fresh plum tomatoes that were delightfully firm. Leftovers at work today.

Long ago, I remember in my youth, cream of wheat. I finally bought abox a few months ago, and found out I did not like it. It was expensive too. But I find I like grits. This morning's breakfast was grits, cooked moist, not a paste as usual. With butter, and salt. Also known as corn mush. Peasant food. A staple of depression era cuisine.
