It's supposed to be 105 here today. I think I'll go pick vine grilled tomatoes for dinner tonight.

I took a leaf from your book, Bobert, and am testing the "cut off the sick leaves" approach on the tomato. I noticed that the leaves that were browning didn't have fruit or blossoms on them. It may be a combination of blight and sacrifice to get the fruit to ripen.

I finished building a table top outside for my kitchen stuff, the roaster, the convection oven, we'll see what else is suitable out there. I'll bake outside and keep from heating the house so much. I wanted a sturdy table that the weather wouldn't affect. The equipment will only go outside when it is needed. I'm going to start this afternoon with two items, a loaf of bread and a lamb/tomato/eggplant casserole.
