Fried Green Tomatoes.




Today was the day! I figured seeing I don't really like plum tomatoes I might as well harvest a few green tomatoes. YUM! 
It's been pretty hot here everyday with no rain for at least three weeks. I HAVE to water every morning, two water jugs of water, if I don't I have a weepy droopy plant, it's happened so I know. 



Here's my harvest with plenty more on the plant. So I have more greenies to look forward to. 


I love this cutting up part, they smell so good and are really fresh!


I decided to take the lazy way out and cooked them in my air fryer. I'm so addicted to it, you can cook most anything that is usually fried without all that oil and SMELL. (I have to admit, its not the same but for most things its a fine option) 


BUT! you know what they say "cheaters never win..." 
They were good but not excellent. I should have just bit the bullet and got the fry pan and oil out. 



Patti saved the day and brought over pimento and cheese spread for the tomato's, she told me it is a Juliet Georgia thing from the movie Fried Green Tomatoes.  She had been there and actually ate at the restaurant. The cheese spread helped the taste greatly. But, to me cheese improves EVERYTHING! Especially poorly cooked food.

But, all in all they tasted OK, but the fry pan it is, next time!

Yup! You guessed it the cat place, where you can drink your drinks, munch your snacks and pet cats the whole time, or if your like me you sit and watch the cats the whole time.  Tori was of course in her glory, petting a smooching cats everywhere.  Each of the cats have a pink or blue ribbon on them identifying them as male or female and with their name so you can look them up on a paper, that is on a table in the room, so you can tell how old they are.  I did find it very interesting watching the different cats interact with each other and us. They have little treats you can buy to entice them to come to you to be petted.  Tori was like this practically the whole time, this is her "happy place," amongst cats. Goodness she can go on and on about the virtues of each cat and she only met them once. This cat below is my kind of cat, wonderful to be seen but not touched. White, I like a white cat with a touch of black. They have "cat walks," u

I love the trailing days of fall, the light is different and the air feels just right. It always amazes me how the sun casts such a different kind of lighting onto the trees and other green thing this time of year almost like a spotlight but not harsh or hot.  I had a wonderful crop of raspberries just enough for a couple handfuls each day they were fun to watch progressing over the summer. At one point I had a scare. Some of the raspberry bushes got some kind of grub egg in them, I forget the name now but it lays an egg somehow that causes the top 3 inches or so to wilt. I googled it and got directions on how the save the plant and I think  I caught it in time. PHEW  I The garden as a whole is wonderful, a wild but productive place.  We have this one pretty maple tree in our backyard but unfortunately it may go next year we need the space to plant some fruit trees. I hate to cut trees but they grow like mad here.  I’ll leave you with my b
