Yummy Dinner

This evening I laid down and took a long nap, three hours! That is what happens when I wake at 6 am. Tony took garden duty today while I slept. That meant I had plenty for dinner and to clean, chop and freeze. I chopped enough okra to fill six quart freezer bags, however I held one back for dinner. I chopped green tomatoes and a couple yellow squash to fry up with the okra. I went to the home canned stock pile and chose baby green Lima`s for me and Large butter beans for Tony, turnip greens and a baked potato for each. No cornbread. What did you have for dinner? Nothing like a good vegetable dinner.

@andriaperry I would have said 'most' but you mention a lot that we don't eat. Okra isn't too common here. And if you have no experience of them you tend not to buy them.

I made eggplant parmigiana for dinner. The thunderstorm had cooled down the air, we liked a warm dinner for a change.

@andriaperry Glad you had a good dinner. I do not eat dinner. I eat two meals a day and after I take medication I cannot eat after that. I can drink though.

@andriaperry Yes, I do not eat after I take my medications after my 2nd meal. I do not like to eat dinner anyways. It does not agree with me.

I love turnip greens but not a lot of folks here have a clue what that is and finding any at the grocer isn't that easy.

@andriaperry I boil it but not too much boil. Steam is better. Or I fry them.
