Tennesseecowgirl put a nice dedi up  at her 300th image.  I congratulate her on this and say thanks for the dedi to so many folks here! **So, lets have a cook out and celebrate..celebrate this and anything else!**

Here is apple pie, a tall one done in a spring form pan and 4 lbs of apples...dig in!  I am taking it off the stove and too the cookout right now.
**
You add the other stuff...**ice cream?  Grilled ribeyes or salmon..or hot dogs on the barbe...this is a good chance to show off tasty morsels from where you live. oops, I started with dessert, sweets and I am on a diet....we need solid foods too and a friendly crowd.

This is like a new game and I want to see who will join in this virtual cook out for all of us.

Thanks...TomDart.

Good heavens! That pie is ... I've never seen one like that before!  I'll be adding something soon. I've got a few good downhome recipes in mind... in fact, my girl and her boy are out catfishing tonight and if I'm lucky, I'll be frying up a mess of catfish and hushpuppies tomorrow night!

Okay I'll bite (sorry for the pun)! So here is my Lemon Sour Cream pie. Pity you can't see the inside or taste it. If you're still hungry, I'll send some stew! Life is uncertain, one should start with dessert.

So, Bruce...I'm curious to see what you come  up with... BTW, I found a striped bass and another catfish in the freezer when I woke this morning from my girl's fishing trip, so a fried fish dinner is just around the corner. :-)

Oh MAN!!! That apple pie looks like a killer!!! I should apply directly to my thighs! LOL :P

Darn, I just ate dinner before I saw this post or I would have got a shot of my pizza.

I'll try to come up with something creative soon.

I wish I hadn't seen those pies, cuz now I'm craving dessert! :(    (I'm also on a diet!)

Remember, whaleman said, "Life is uncertain, one should start with dessert."   I agree and say that while on a diet and off sugar for many years now.  

I suspect we will get some main course stuff before long...

whaleman posted Fri, 17 July 2009 at 2:58 AM

Okay, I'll get us away from desserts. Here's some stew for 'ya!

TwoPynts posted Fri, 17 July 2009 at 9:23 AM

Here is a detail of a beef stir-fry dish I whipped up. More like a stroganof but without such a heavy cream sauce. Trust me, it is better than it looks!

Summer is slow in the forums, it is great that Tom is attempting to keep things active and fun! :)

Give me a big bowl and a couple or three large plates...yummy stuff here.

MrsLubner posted Fri, 17 July 2009 at 9:56 AM

Oh my gosh! That stirfry looks to-die-for! I love all sorts of stirfry and at least once a month I make sure I do a large wok of brocolli beef. The rest of the time I just use any left over meat and heap up the veggies turning it all over the top of either fried rice or pan noodles.

Oh, back on track... Here is our dinner from last night. Fresh fried catfish and striped bass, halfed baked potatoes and white corn on the cob. Simple and oh-so-good! Not shown, ice cream and fresh blueberries for dessert.

Or how about another more traditional stir-fry? MMM...PJ, that looks great. Love your presentation. Getting hungry now!

Oh, oh! I could fall into that stirfry!  Perhaps I will have something good on the stove this weekend and come back with another course for this meal.

That is the way my grilling attempts usually end too. What are we doing wrong? ;'D

TomDart posted Fri, 17 July 2009 at 6:07 PM

Hot Dogs do just fine when blackened..they have to since mine look like that one.    PJ, that salmanoid looking fish in the back seems to be talking to me.

Here is some meat.  Local guys compete while rasing money for the boys and girls clubs.  This is fresh and hot.  I am not sure but is that a chicken on a stick?!  Could be a little game hen.   Fish on a stick, ok..but chicken on a stick..humm.

This cookout has enough to last a few days and I am waiting for more.  The desserts are already eaten, the stew is only scrapings on the pan...the stirfrys are mostly gone and the fish will go real fast.  I like the stripers myself.

MrsLubner posted Fri, 17 July 2009 at 6:26 PM

Tom, the fish who is eyeballing you is one of several stuffed fish pillows of varied size we have. We are very much an angler family - generations back, in fact - and our bed pillows, sofa pillows and throw pillows range from  giant sturgeons 5 feet long to this one in my food shot.  BTW, we fish at least 3 times a week during the summer - either one or all of us at a time. :-)

I'm hoping for a nice bowl of soup or a plate of starters soon... I love the variety. :-)

kgb, you also have the "presentation" done well...what is in the parfait or dessert glass?  This looks scrumptous and I just took a med that makes me wait an hour to eat anything...

Tunde,  I love garlic but it stays with me a couple of days.

babuci posted Sat, 18 July 2009 at 12:44 PM

lol...Tom must eat it on the weekend only...lol but very good for ppl suffering form heart problem. Lowers a colesterol (the bad one), keep blood preassure down and cleans a blood. Small price to pay at least it is natural. Take a Coversyl for high blood preasure and all sorts of side effect comes out. I am happy to trade.

The apple or a glass of milk after food helps for the "after effect" of the garlic. Can not go wrong with a good brushing either.

MrsLubner posted Sat, 18 July 2009 at 4:14 PM

I eat tons of coles, onions and garlic (and carrots) for my health. Cleans the blood and all good for preventing illness. 3 ounces or less of meat a week will also help (hence why I eat so much stir fry since you need little meat in it to make a meal)

Not a perfect shot but it tasted perfect.  Summer Pizza. Sugar cookie crust, strawberry cream cheese "sauce", and sliced fruit including strawberries, dark grapes, blueberries, kiwi, bananas...

And for a starter, chips with a hotter than hot salsa.  We sort of had a LOT of salsa so super scoops were in order. :-)

And some dark chocolate for after lunch...

Dang.  It's been years since I had borscht.  Yummy!!!  And the chocolate?  Oh yes ... I'll have some of that as well!

TomDart posted Wed, 22 July 2009 at 5:40 PM

Thanks for the chocolate, Kort.  We ate some and some went into these brownies. These are in the carrier, several dozens layered with waxed paper.  I will have these over there in a jiffy.

For anyone not familiar with brownies, the tasty morsels are from a land somewhere between fudge and cake..these are moist, chewy, rich with chocolate but not so rich you will eat just one. Oh, you will eat several  for certain.

Oh, the soup looks great..ever tried to roast beet slices? That is tasty, too.

Be there in a minute with the brownies...

MrsLubner posted Thu, 23 July 2009 at 1:05 AM

Tom, you tickled my taste buds and amazingly, I just roasted chunked Golden Globe beets, yellow onion, garlic and fresh hot peppers in olive oil...poured them over a pile of fresh spinach and put the lid on the pot to slowly wilt the spinach. I'll have it for my lunch tomorrow. My absolute favorite lunch! But for now, heres one of the dishes my family claims is my best...bread pudding.

Of course, if any leftovers show up that is ok, too.

I'd even have that for breakfast! (and some of Tom's brownies & PJ's bread pudding).
