Not generally. - I mean, I don’t wash the insides out before eating each one, so some sure. But generally just scrape most out with a knife, along with the Devil Fingers.

I do, too. I ordered her Keto for Life cookbook (spiral bound so lays flat when using) just to support her and I like cookbooks

I just looked at her cookbook, too. I think I’ll order as well, but kindle version (so much easier on my eyes) I like supporting my favorite authors, too. I know a lot of the recipes can be found online, but I buy to show them some love.

Leftover sous vide pork tenderloin finished in my smoker. Garden beans with bacon and salsa verde and a sauce made from egg, vinegar and bacon grease.

Dinner… Demonico Steak and 6 Brussel Sprouts for an Appetizer. Then 2 Dungeness Crab, with some Snow crabs legs that were loose. Also had another whole Snow Crab afterwards, and saved the other 2 Dungeness for tomorrow. … Took the day off tomorrow to do some work around the house.

No Ma’am, actually just the opposite… East Coast. 
Southern Maryland to be exact. … But Maryland is known for their Blue Crabs. @beccs can confirm that as well.

My husband loves blue crab. I’m a Midwestern gal, so not familiar. But you sure are lucky to have fresh seafood available.

Well, though I’m pretty much a land dweller myself, I do have water all around me here and quite a few Seafood restaurants as well. … But it is nice to go sit on the waterfront at some of them & eat Seafood.
Lot of Water-folks around here. Most are boaters, and seems everyone has those SALT-LIFE stickers on their vehicles. The rest have Whitetail Deer. Being MidWestern, I’m sure you see enough Deer.

The hot spell is still on - microwave casserole. Ham, broccoli, jicama, mushrooms, farmer’s cheese and hot sauce. I didn’t really like the jicama in there much, I do like it in brothy soups. It serves well as a potato in a strong broth, but with the more delicate flavors of the casserole, it doesn’t blend in. It was a good casserole though. The hot sauce I like is called “fire ant juice”. I prefer it to all others because I don’t like to taste all that vinegar in hot sauce. I do like and use vinegar in stuff, but not in my hot sauce, I just want it to be hot. The fire ant juice hits the spot for me.

Jicama is a great water chestnuts substitute in stir fry’s.

Yes, it is a good thing for many dishes. It is much like a potato in broth, too. I bought two big jicamas when available, peeled them, parboiled them, portioned them up and froze them. They keep perfectly like that. I have been using them in soups and stews, anything with a robust flavor. Yesterday’s casserole was ham- mellow cheese- broccoli- mushroom based and delicately flavored. They didn’t work as well in that. They taste great fresh, not frozen or cooked, in salads also, kind of a cross between a water chestnut and a crispy apple in that. Overall, I like them.

Working out in the yard today, putting the new Garden Gates together and painting. Came in for a quick meal… 2 Dungeness Crab and some small Sea Scallops. Also a Grape Zevia and Iced Tea.

Rooster thigh and wing. We made this yesterday but I will eat part of the thigh for dinner.
The colors are nice (sunlight helps too… at least it does that… after rainy colder weeks we got summer heat so I avoid going out of the house) but we need to learn roasting chicken better. Even those, it’s nice but the skin isn’t crunchy. But we will learn from a pro soon, my SO’s Mom who is almost my Mom She cooks meat since ages unlike us.

Went out to dinner Saturday with gf - we got burrata caprese with heirloom tomatoes for an appetizer, and I got branzino with spinach and asparagus for dinner (over a lemon butter sauce). So good!
