My lettuce is dying off in the heat. I'll wait to end August and
replant it. Normally can crop until November here.

I do that too when I have a glut. I just wash and put in a ziplock.
On defrosting, the skins slip right off easily.

I always wanted to try butter chicken. I sort of had some tonight.
Last week I picked up a two pack of butter chicken sauce at Costco.
Today I picked up a couple chicken breasts, cubed the meat, sauteed it
in butter and then added the sauce and simmered for 5 minutes. I cooked
some Basmati rice and steamed beans. Simple and delicious. I may look up
a proper recipe and make it from scratch.

Uh huh. You still haven't answered the question. Why did they leave
that roll of copper sitting out?

Copper is also the most protective metal against Covid. The virus dies on
it within hours compared to days for stainless steel.

Good! My house is negative for Covid-19 so the copper is good!

Are you allowed/able to have tenants during this crisis?

You can see the hair on their heads to discern if they're going bald or
not.

I would be too! Fortunately I acclimate pretty well so right now
outside at 90F doesn't bother me much.

Just types not grown locally to you may be sporadic. Since Virginia
Beach area has significant land farms, we haven't had a lack of much
produce.
 
Local apples kicking in too but we have 2 trees of them so rarely buy
any.

I make a similar one too. Less on the hot red paste and we normally do
it what I call 'Japan style' (it isn't really, just was common to find
there).
 
It's a fresh vs fermented one and left fairly salty. Nicely crunchy too.

I buy when they're on sale for about $1.99 as they are a little pricey.
 
I can remember when the brand Possum was 10¢ a can. Of course, gasoline
was also 25¢ a gallon, too.

How would anchovy paste in a tube work in your kimchee?

We have that brand too. They're not filleted. If they were, it would
say so. Maybe you just eat it all. Most people do. Everything has
become mushy from the canning process, even the main bone. I'm just
finicky.
 
Once, at Aldi, I saw filleted canned sardines. We bought dozens of
cans, because they're a rarity.
 
>Boy, your sardines would put me off eating them forever.
 
You have been eating them forever.

I've got two different cans of King Oscar sardines here. One says
skinless & boneless and was about a dollar more than the wild-caught
sardines which do have the tails. Next time I eat a can of the wild
-caught I'll have to examine them closely to see if they're deboned.
 
The skinless & boneless can though is lower in fat, cholesterol,
sodium, etc.

Yes, that's what I meant. I'd like to buy and eat "skinless &
boneless". I almost never see it here. Of course, it won't kill me to
buy the regular ones and clean them myself. But there's also canned
mackerel and that's always cleaned, in the small cans at least.

Stromboli with hot fennel sausage, salami, shrooms, onion, erbs,

I fucked up and forgot the sauce (I blame Julie for that), plus I
could have used more filling. Sauce on the side. I don't make them
often enough to get the rolling down - but I shouldn't have left
that leading edge uncovered - only the far seam edge.
 
The quality fillings made up for it.

Stop in at Captain D's some time and pick up a gallon of their sweet tea
and tell me what you think of it. When I'd eat-in before the quarantine
I always managed to slosh as I walked out.

"seemed to" is cshenk speak for "I'm completely clueless but that
doesn't stop me from talking".
 
"The tomato was introduced to China, likely via the Philippines or
Macau, in the 1500s."
