FALL COOKING

Time for soups and sauces as the cooler weather arrives. But last night a barbecue with the last of ours steaks from an order in June. Warm enough to eat outside which Barb loves. So some Fall nights let us be outside. Maybe time for some fresh pasta for the girls! Now that the humidity is gone I feel human again!

PICKLED EGGPLANT/MELANZANA

Eggplants are having a good season. I bought a large box and decided to grill a few on the barbecue. I really like to make a few jars of eggplant to eat throughout the year with a new piece of  fresh bread.
Sliced and salted to stay overnight with something wearing them down to drain the moisture, they can be put in jars with the olive oil, vinegar and spices the next day.
Good to go! Of course this is my thing to do while Barb goes to the Ex with the girls and grandchildren.
I have my eggplant while they have cotton candy and caramel apples! What would you chose?
