So, I'm raiding my cupboards and not too sure what I want to eat. I had
pasta for supper - cheese and crackers for lunch, omelette for breakfast.
But there's something definitely missing.

Then it struck me. I hadn't had meat since Thursday night.

Weird.

I'm in the same boat! I've been craving meat all day but my lack of ac and the
threat of thunderstorms sort of precluded cooking or grilling.

I ate more meat than usual this week but I think reading about everyone's
memorial day plans put the seed in my head.

We had chicken on Saturday and salmon on Sunday, so today ended up being a
"no meat" day, without regret. On our way back from our mountain trip we
stopped at a farm and bought some wonderful corn on the cob. *That* was
dinner. :-)

Heh! Most of my meals are planned around a meat entree'.

I've been stocking up for the past couple of weeks as the local
supermarkets have been running their summer-grilling-season meat sales.
The freezer is stacked with portioned-out bags of salmon (farmed and
wild), sirloin, strip, chicken breast, shrimp, and 93% burger.

My Tilia's due for a vacation, and my grill is humming a happy tune.

We have no rain, only irrigation. Too bad all that rain can't be evened
out somehow.

We've had local corn in the stores since sometime in April, but that's AZ
for you. Tomatoes, too. The local berries have not been all that great,
however. With our climate we manage several crop successive crops per
growing season, and usually the berry crop is good later on.

The *perfect* combination! I love ribs, but haven't had any in quite a
while. I have to put that on the agenda for sometime soon.

I've had *plenty* dinners that were just corn on the cob. It's good, it's
light, and as my husband says (In an almost British voice), "I will shit
easy in the morning!"

Best cure for the "C" word that there is. ;-D

We had corn on the cob yesterday. It was 5 for $1.00 and OH so sweet!
