I don't know how you do it. While I really hate living here ... I'm not sure
that I would like living there any better. At least there isn't snow there.
Salad, good idea.
We have a HUGE batch of CSA greens. Today I'll be making soup and salad for
dinner. Soup is Turkey meatball w/ kale and salad ... all the greens we can
eat. I was thinking about making some kind of bread .. but it's already too
hot for that.
(btw, the soup will be cooked outside on the grill burner ... I love that
thing. I'm looking for breads that can be made on the grill.
