Are we having fun yet?
I know that I said that I wouldn’t, but my assistance was requested on a mechanical issue. Which the girl from New York solved in under five minutes. Sometimes, the answer to a problem is a new set of eyes. Once that was settled, I went back to food preparations. Which will be occupying most of my time for a while.
Signing off to fry the rest of the eggplant. . .

That is an awful lot of egplant! I reccomend setting up a huge slingshot type contraption and using egplant missles to send a message to low flying planes and unidentified trucks coming up the drive.

can I borrow the eggplant picture? My new boss told me my new haircolor was “eggplant”. See my blog and then your eggplant picture…looks like two distinctly different colors to me!

AFF - a catapult! Brilliant idea. Thank you. But all the eggplant is now residing in the freezer.
Bonnie - Are you another eggplant hater? Yes, Sugar is getting big - and she’s still the cutest little demon.
Moosekahl - Your hair is pretty & not aubergine. A few years ago I dyed mine one of those dramatic reddish colors. I looked in the mirror & said, “Oh no - my hair is #*@~ing purple!”. I went out and bought a box of some mousy brown and dyed it again. I couldn’t handle the purple hair. Yours looks fine - and it’s not #*@~ing purple, either.”
L - Yes, and it’s done - except for the one that the dogs ate.

mmm eggplant.
when my wife is going to fry up a big batch - she gets out our electric wok, and fries it outside. As you know …frying eggplant for a couple hours and you have a fried eggplant smelling house for a couple days.
