She wanted Pizza. So thin crust large pizza pie was the order from take-out.

My ribs got well done and were just about falling off the bone - so they didn't cut apart all that nicely.  But, they must have been pretty tasty because no one complained about anything.  

We do the ribs in the oven, low and slow from now on. Just like you do Beth.

The meat falls right off the bones, so what I will do the next time, is when they are half done, I will slice them and just throw them back in to continue baking slow.

The next door Neighbor brought over three riba the other day, and they were tasty, BUT...Yeah...BUT ...they were tough, and we felt like turkey buzzards tearing off the flesh.
They were done, but they boil the ribs and then throw them on the grill. They come out tough and chewy.
Next time I do the ribs... I will send some over to the neighbor, and watch, I'll guarantee they will want to know how I cooked them.
LOL....

And Beth, I know you were excited to make your roasted tomato/ mozzarella bruchetta.  They look divine, as usual.  

For dinner last night, we had chicken scallopine (with a fair amount of Romano mixed in with the bread crumbs), and a tomato casserole (several layers of sliced Creole tomatoes covered with a bedcrumb mix made from about a half a stick of butter, lots of garlic, a minced shallot and, of course, bread crumbs (I use Progresso Itlian crumbs for this)).  We also had a Creole tomato and baby Romaine salad with a Champagne vinegar vinaigrette.  Yummy!  Shades of summer.
