    So true!

    I grew up in Central Florida. It was a mix of natives and non-natives there. Then I moved down to Port St. Lucie.

    EVERYONE was from New York. And every small business was named "Big Apple" this and "NYC" that. It was crazy!

    My mom said that it was because the whole city was a development planned by General Development. They sold the hell out of the properties up in the New York in the 80s.

    For the record, I'm Florida-born -- though only first generation. My family all hail from WV.

    Well there you go. Sometimes I feel like Jacksonville was settled by Uncle Joe Carson before he moved to Hooterville.

    Last night I made my version of tandoori chicken. It's kind of a standard at our house.

    I slice the chicken breasts horizontally, and marinate them all day in plain yogurt, lemon juice, tandoori seasoning, olive oil, and sambal oelek. Then, without wiping off the marinade, chuck them on a hot grill, for about 4 minutes on each side.

    On the side some kabocha squash with soy sauce and sorghum molassas, and homegrown swiss chard and amaranth greens, sauteed in homemade chicken broth abd apple cider vinegar.

    Cool! You'll probably only need to marinate those shrimp for an hour at the most.

    With the enzymes in the yogurt and the acid in the lemon juice, you might end up with ceviche!

    Looks good, JC! How'd it turn out?

    Y'all inspired me. I put some beans in the crock this morning. They're in there somewhere:

    I also made another batch of mesquite chocolate chip cookies.

    It's a slippery slope, Nell. I've landed on my a$$ too many times to count and I'm in a self-imposed rehab.

    Yeah, but I've gone through three monitors from excessive licking on this thread alone.

    They are the Hungarian hot wax peppers that I harvested when I cut the plant down for the winter. They aren't all that hot. I ended up adding some cayenne pepper and some of that hot sauce I made.

    Sorry about the cookies!


    Well, no, I'm not

    OK... a liitle bit

    Yes, they are very healthy! Oats and pecans, and there's lots of protein in that mesquite flour, and it's low in sugar. Antioxidants in the bittersweet chocolate.

    We'll ignore the white flour and brown sugar.

    Are you possibly suggesting there's no shortening like say, butter?
    If not, could you make them with whole wheat flour and Stevia instead of sugar? Just axing.
    I can definitely do oats, walnuts and dark chocolate.

    Oh yeah, no. There's butter in them -- 8 oz. of it.

    Here's the recipe, if you wanna fiddle with it:

    The pecans and brown sugar were my mods. Rather than 2c white sugar, I used 50/50 white and brown.
