Favorite 4th of July recipes?
Original Message   Jul 2, 2005 1:30 pm
Most of us have certain traditions that we observe on Independence day.
Family picnics...fireworks....hotdogs and potato salad.....what could be more American than that.
I paricularly like the eating part of it all.....a wiener cooked over charcoal, slathered with mustard and chopped onions...ummmmmm-um!
Over the years I have discovered that when I say hot dog here in Detroit....it isnt the same hot dog that people in other parts of the country enjoy.
Down south they put coleslow on thier wieners....In Chicago, they do all kinds of other things with thier sausages. (Pickles and sliced tomatoes????) Deep fried hotdogs in Philly?
My point is....I would like too hear what other folks enjoy for thier 4th of July feasts. Different strokes....from different folks.
My wife and I like too start our holiday with a breakfast treat.
It's real easy too make.....just a banana and a cantalope.

You are further proof of what a healthy diet can do for a guy.

Good tips for the sour kraut.  I'll eat what they make for me.  I like my wieners deep in with some mustard and onions.   I also like the firmness of the fleshy watermelon.

A Fourth of July without Melons just isn't American. Yea, I have noticed that women really like melons.
It seems I am always seeing women with big melons.


This woman is carrying two melons...........




This woman is carrying two melons under her shirt. I presume to keep them dry.




This woman just loves plump juicy melons, she even wears a shirt pointing that out.........





This woman like carrying her two melons in her hands........and if ones a little bigger than the other, what the heck.
As long as they are succulant, who cares?




Now these ladies have come up with a different melon......one more suited for their taste.

enough hope to make you happy.

Paula,
You have too remember that the Potato famine wasnt just about the potatoes....
It also had a devestating effect on many of thier other crops.....thier cukes in particular.
(A relative comparison of crop growth effects.)

Don't forget that you can also get a lot of good nutrition from natures natural source of liquid nourishmen:

I know that there is another natural source wholesome fun to drink nutritious refreshment out there, but it escapes me right now. Funny, I'm sure the clues are right out front, staring me in the face, but I just can't seem to remember the beverage... clueless in Canada.

And like most movements, celebrities are always jumping on the band wagon to generate more publicity for themselves.
This health food craze is no different. Some are so fanatical that they take their healthy snacks with them wherever they go, even though the transportation of ag products across borders is illegal.  Here is a picture of Britney smuggling raisins............

Yes Paula....
Nature can be a cruel mistress...
If you aren't the perfect tomato, the chances of you adding your DNA too the gene pool are very poor indeed.

I think, in some cases, its better for everyone that some veggies don't wade into the gene pool....

Lint, I have also notice that Zucchini is popular with women on holidays. Myself, I've never liked it.



This woman has seems to be real pleased with this big dark one..........






These ladies couldn't be smiling any bigger while fondling these yellow ones..........






Now this gentleman is displaying his record home grown one, must be at least 36 inches.




In addition, evidently "vintage corn" was a big hit.........
