Hey, last night I roasted a piece of swordfish with lemon pepper and goats milk butter that was absolutely to die for.
I was also motivated by this thread to get an ear of roasted corn on a stick at the farmer’s market tonight, yeah, it’s getting late.
Nothing like fresh pigs.
Yep, it is the last weekend of our local farmer’s market this weekend. I’ll have to stock up, because next week, I’ll be forced to go to Wal-Mart for the same produce, but cheaper.
Jersey/Hudson River Valley tomatoes were crappy this year, due to a dead dry summer. I only had one or two dozen that were up to standard. I’m switching back to kumatoes next week.
Summer squash and eggplant were good – grilled them at least once a week since July with olive oil, garlic, and basil – but never got the price down to where it should be.
Butternut Squash soup? Bah! Pour it down the drain.
ehh were too close to mexico and central America with too many “ethnic” stores to not have fresh winter fruit…
although we do have idiots that wont go to them because it sends money “to mexico” not realizing that all the chains here are mostly owned by the big American corps these days …
Just pulled out our patty pan squash, but planted some snow peas and Brussels Sprouts for the winter. (Such as it is here.)
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! I like them a little better when they’re aged for about a week and then certain bits smoked. 
Now wait a minute. Living VERY high in the Colorado Mountains does not mean you can’t eat well.
Soups- Chili Cheese Chowder, Mulligatawny.
Good old fashion beef and bean (don’t go there) chili.
Mexican Lasagna. A fav.
Chicken Enchilada. Another fav.
Stir fry and rice. Whatever you want.
Baked potato with all the fixens and an egg on top.
Grill some steaks in the snow.
As far as food goes, I look forward to winter. I’m not so busy that I don’t have time to cook.
Those are all excellent and tasty dishes, but none of them require fresh local produce.
