HUNGRY GERALD

Garlic scapes and traditional ingredients were in a tasty platter of linguine. It was topped with seasonal yellow beans and cherry tomatoes (HG omitted the tomatoes –tough for The Old Guy to swallow). For some reason, HG was served a mammoth bowl of pasta. HG chomped and chomped but could only finish less than 3/4ths. HG was so full that HG missed out on a wondrous platter of cheese selected by Profesore Massimo R. from the cheese merchant at Prince Edward Island’s Farmers Market. (Fig jam was the companion for the tangy local blue cheese—The cheese tastes like Gorgonzola). During the day,  SJ was doing his masterful pickling—sauerkraut, cucumbers, turnips..Hey, lay out some grilled sausages and Black Forest Ham. Plus blazing Russian mustard and milder Dijon. Take icy Gahan’s Red Ale out of the fridge. Happy times ahead.
