I think we will have to get a small one for the 4th. Have you ever had an Israel watermelon? My MIL is growing them and says they are really sweet and good. I think toasting drchelo with a slice is perfect!!! YES, drchelo's lust and kindness is what I will keep in my heart always. MF, the cutest thing...Evan, our fisherman, looked at his watch and said, "these oysters came out of the Sound exactly 6 1/2 hours ago!" I love all your growing produce and BEER!!! That white gazpacho sounds really good. Can I use a Kirby? I really like the flavor better and it's easier on my tummy. Like you, I am getting dribs and drabs of stuff. I envy your tomato. I just have flowers yet. We just had 6 homegrown strawberries for dessert! :-) biscuit, I envy your your watermelon. I think we will have to get a small one for the 4th.

YUUMMM! I can only get fresh-caught seafood once a month, when the guy with the roadside stand comes up from the Gulf Coast. I don't buy any fish from the supermarket, anymore. I know my cash is going to the fishermen. But, I'll have to wait at least another week until they come up. So... <b>Dinner Tonight:</b> <blockquote>-- Grilled Local (one mile) Grass-Grazed Organic Beef Kabobs with Peppers and Onion from the garden -- Baby Potatoes, Yellow Squash and a Giant Garden Mushroom (surprise to me tonight!), all from the garden, wrapped in foil and grilled with Butter and Parsley -- White Gazpacho (<a href="http://www.cooks.com/rec/doc/0,1648,145171-242197,00.html" rel="nofollow">recipe</a>) -- Sliced Fresh Tomato -- Homebrewed, draft Amber Ale</blockquote> I'll have a memorial crustacean dinner for drchelo this coming week. --mf What a BEAUTIFUL dinner!

A little more time. But we didn't. Needless to say, I've been eating watermelon every day in her honor - wonderfully sweet, pure watermelon, and raising slices in her honor. And I was going to post about it, but I just didn't know. So it makes me so very, very glad that you posted about her and her crustaceans. And it makes me think she slipped away from us because she wanted us to remember her not in her frailty, but in her sheer joy and lust for watermelon - and crustaceans. I am so, so glad you posted this. drchelo and I talked about — hold on, now, hold on to your hat — watermelon. :lol: Then we’d talk about some other less interesting stuff before the coversation would turn back to … watermelon. :lol:
