When it gets like that here, and I want to cook on the grill, I set up a box fan, or a pedestal fan to blow on me to at least get some air movement.
why didn't I think of that..
Forgot to mention, the air movement blows the bugs away. Especially mosquito's. They hate wind, and cannot fly well with the air blowing.

I tried two new recipes. One was adobo steak tacos that I made with some T-bones in the freezer, with pineapple salsa and a Caribbean style black beans.

I just saw an interesting video on peeling tomatoes. I used to cut an X in the bottom of the 'mater and drop it in boiling water for a few minutes and pull them out. the skin is supposed to slide right off but most of the time it requires more labor. This chef put the tomatoes on a parchment lined jelly roll pan, put them in a 500 degree oven for 5 minutes until their skins started to wrinkle. Pull 'em out and cool five minutes. The tomatoes fall right out of their skins.
Tonight I am trying a new recipe for seafood linguini.

Bugsters, all of the chili peppers I used in the salsa were fresh peppers.

I used the peppers available at the grocery store. I substituted the ones they didn't have for other kinds they did have. I used a blend of mild and not-too-hot peppers.

I have DD's Snoopy Spoon, and Micky Spoon. Can't find the Minnie Mouse fork. God forbid DD didn't have her Snoopy Spoon to eat with, all heck would break loose!
Daughters favorite character is snoopy.

I guess beef stroganoff . Tina bought a package of diced already beef.
I'll just braise it slow with onions and mushrooms.
Noodles would go great with it.....or maybe I will make potato dumplings.

I saw a great T-shirt the other day: "I plan to live forever." Under that, it said, "So far, so good." Cracked me up!

Oh, Norm! The tacos I've been craving just got ramped up. Beautiful presentation -- nothing on that table that I wouldn't use either!

Ok, seems I might have reg flour in the bin.Pizza dough was very different.Good but not crisp and has holes like my other dough. I also baked it a CI skillet.

The pizza looks good. Thick is good that leftovers are great for breakfast.
We all had different suppers. We ( Tina and I ), had to go to a funeral parlor at 6:00....left there, and Tina picked up a burger and fries at Micky D's for Gabe. And at Wendys, a Baked potato for her.
I ate the beef stroganoff over noodles. It was so good, I had two plates full.

We all really liked it but next time we all think a chuck steak or a couple of flat irons will be better choices than strip or T-bones. I have a Cuban steak on the grill recipe I am thinking about doing the next time I make this salsa.

What cut of meat does the Cuban steak call for, Norm? I love Cuban food!
