Sun and Sam's inspired me today


The sun is out today so I am in a better mood.  Also, Andy and I made an early trip to Sam's.  I made this salad, which is like the one you can buy at Carfagna's for several dollars a pound.  It is one of Beth's favorites because she likes peppers and pickled items and she likes them spicy.  This one is only slightly spicy.  Sam's had those tiny cucumbers that we adore.  I like them small and when they become cudgels they are not to my taste. The next things I added were those small colorful peppers in a bag. Then, onions diced as small as you can do it, blocks of cheese, and blocks of salami.  You can add anything that appeals to you.  I even added pickled okra.

We bought several fish items; I had a craving for fish, so that is on the menu for tonight. I will make chips from slices of potatoes baked at a high temperature. Any leftovers will be turned into a fish chowder tomorrow. I add potatoes to my fish stew after all, there are no rules in your kitchen or mine.  I might even add corn.  What??  I may add more pictures today because I am working with lovely fresh ingredients.
