What are you feeding your Ranger owner tonight?

[Doc]

We have some friends visiting us for a few days here at the lake, staying in the boat shed that I turned into a 2-BDR guest cottage. They brought a basket of fresh plum tomatoes, basil, hot peppers, peaches, and some other goodies from their garden. The first words out of my mouth were “Thank You”, which were quickly followed by, “I can use some of this to make pizza in our wood-fired pizza oven!“

Like me, he can eat just about anything. She cannot eat gluten, so I was happy to experiment with a special pizza dough for her using a gluten-free flour blend - it didn’t rise or spread out the same as regular pizza dough but it cooked up nicely in the oven.

Mrs. DukeCanBuildit also has dietary considerations, so her pizza had a white sauce of ricotta and fresh mozzarella. The garden basket had a couple of small peaches, so I used one on my wife’s pizza along with some mushrooms and fresh basil. Folks will say you can’t put fruit, especially pineapple, on pizza but when you think of it, fruit is literally the first ingredient on just about every pizza.

She loved her pizza, our guests loved their pizzas, and I love any pizza that comes out of my oven.

Nice !

Look good - Doc would be impressed.

Those old grandma dishes are likely sought-after “vintage” pieces that would fetch a high price. We have a ton of plates, mixing bowls, and baking dishes from the fifties here at the cottage that folks out there would go crazy for.

"Vintage" IE OLD junk. lol

Everything in this Airbnb is vintage and looks like she went to several estate sales and pieced it together from all their old stuff.

Google says Sausage Fries, but we call it "Makkaraperunat" (Sausage-potatoes).

I think the greens fell off to the table.

Scorpion Tacos ..see other post ..

“Deep-fried scorpions are a delicacy in some parts of the world, particularly in Southeast Asia and China, and are also sold as a novelty food item in other countries
. The cooking process neutralizes the venom, making the scorpions safe to eat.”

You "hear" that?
But you dont say you "know" that...
I prefer to remain ignorant, as I've had occasion to see those little bastards in homes I've previously owned here. They're waaaay too creepy to eat.

INSIDE MY HOUSE!!! Very disconcerting!
