I borrowed some of that Gewürztraminer, mixed it with the olive oil and tossed in some finely chopped shallots along with some roasted garlic and a dash or two of cayenne and nutmeg. It seems to have worked well as a baste for the shad. They are ready to eat now and there is plenty to go around since they each weighed in at nearly seven pounds. I plan to have a taste of it myself along with a wedge of the hubbard squash; but I've been wanting to try a chunk of that salmon, too. Oh, there's still some tuna left if anyone wants some more.

Glad to see that someone else has figured out how to make the smoothies. I'd like some mango and papaya in the next one please.
