Made this for dinner the other night - my garden is producing an abundance of cucumbers and I’m trying every recipe I can find!

I just purchased some Arroyabe Bonito del Norte and am looking forward to a nicoise salad tonight. 

They’re quite firm and don’t seem the least bit raw. 

I had aguachile for the first time last week (Tamale Boy, Portland Oregon) and I am in love!
We’re in the middle of a heatwave and it was the perfect meal. 

Thanks!
And, I’m making this salad for a family picnic on Saturday! 

The ‘70's were truly a time of free-thinking! 

Both Maude and The Jeffersons were spinoffs of All in the Family, and all of these are in the ‘70's. And all were regularly watched by my family. 
I often think about my childhood (in the ‘70's) and compare it to life now, and this just reinforces my thoughts that there was a whole lot more room for free-thinkers then.

You’re in Portland?!?! Now I feel even worse about being a perma-gray here. I talk about Portland all the time, how much I love pickles, and post often, yet here I still linger...

I’m sure I won’t go to see it, but I look forward to reading the reviews when it does come out. 

I just ordered some Duke’s earlier today (before reading this).

So no luck for us poor folk. Eat the fucking rich!

Much like the troll who’s seen fit to repeat to every comment here with his racist post - twice. And then posted it by itself just in case anyone missed it.
What a life!

Good riddance!

My local pot shop has weed popcorn and a number of other savory edibles.
Love living in Potland, er Portland!

I replied to the OP, and I was the parent who’s house was the teen hangout.

As a parent of now-adults, my house was always the teen hangout, and my reaction to this was exactly the same!

Hatch green chiles are the only agriculture I’m concerned about in NM.

I lived in Albuquerque and those automatic watering systems were ubiquitous!
Didn’t Santa Fe go with xeriscaping years ago? Albuquerque should follow suit. 

I found this headline intriguing because I remember when I lived in Albuquerque (in the ‘80's) the Rio Grande always seemed like just a trickle and I thought the name was inapt.
Then I read the linked article, and found that when I was living there it was indeed dry!
Good to know my memory hasn’t failed (at least on

Hatch all day! ;-)
