We had pizza burgers at my college hangout back in the '80s, burger with mozzarella cheese and pizza sauce.

I hate waiting for the UPS dude. I had an Amazon return to make so they sent a call tag. But all morning I worried I'd not hear the doorbell so I wasn't allowing myself to go swim or do anything. He just arrived. Phew.

And pointed out there's a wasp's nest under the front porch eaves. Hmm.

I also got two Amazon pkgs that were mistakenly sent to my old address (by me, who didn't check carefully enough when ordering). Our realtor kindly ran interference on that one. They were expensive packages so I'm very relieved to have them in hand.

I never did taste a Double Down, but I wanted to. For me, it's healthier to have two pieces of chicken than two pieces of bread. Not that KFC is healthy overall but if you're talking relative evils...

I don't think my tomatoes are going to ripen and grow before frost... not one has ripened yet.

Oh, also? I'm totally dying in this heat. I grew up here but 25 years away made me forget precisely how much I'm not built for this.

I haven't wanted to cook anything for meals because of the heat. So today I broke out my solar oven and am cooking jambalaya in there. The heat can stay outside.

Where are you located, Sophia?

Upstate NY.

A suggestion for replacing bread on sandwiches--try using fried green plaintains. It's what Chicagoans call a jibarito.

Yikes, that's an early frost date. I hope they come through for you. Everyone I know in CA has been complaining about the short season. It rained a lot longer this spring. Though we need it very badly, it also ruined a number of stone fruit crops and made things start later in marginal sun climates like the marine Bay Area.

That sounds delicious, Kathy, but it's still starch. (Not that I'm being good about my low glycemic diet at the moment. Stress around here was too much for me. Need to get back on the wagon again.)

I guess I can eat a lot of fried green tomatoes!
