Hoping you're OK, Lucinda.

1. We went out to empty the tank, a chose that generally

robs me of my appetite, lol.

I have some leftovers and the makings of a caprese. That is most likely what we will have.

Sushi.... mmmmmmm. My favorite meal.

2. I try to ALWAYS have the makings of a caprese on hand -- it's such a tremendous...

.
.
.
... "There's nothing in the house to eat" kind of meal.

I'm thinking of trying a caprese sandwich -- fresh mozzarella, tomato, basil and balsamic vinegar
on a hamburger bun.

3. Basil is the one thing I can easily grow on the boat.

Hmm.... caprese sandwich. We have bagels! I wonder how it would be to put some bacon on there as well.

4. M-m-m-m-m... a caprese burger.

If I buy fresh basil, most of it goes bad. I've found that balsamic vinegar reconstitutes
my store-bought freeze-dried basil very nicely.

6. It's so easy to grow. TJ's sells the plants for pretty much the same price

as buying it cut off plants.

I recently bought a tube of basil. It works ok for flavoring in a pinch, but I like a bright fresh whole leaf with my caprese.

5. Tomato-basil-chicken sausage from Trader Joe's.

I cooked it with chopped tomatoes, Vidalia onion, bell pepper and garlic. And there are leftovers!

so I'm all backwards, posting wise.
