Sorry DC, no pork roll which I never remember calling Taylor Ham. But Chris we did have lots of hoagies, so many that the women at the pizza place now knows Mrs. JHcurl by name.
The added bonus of spending so much time at home was the fresh tomatoes from the garden. The extra added bonus yesterday was eating a sun warm tomato in the garden while picking others. Dad would save seeds from year to year to get the biggest and best plum tomatoes you can imagine.
Also picked up some fresh corn yesterday. Stopped by a local farm I know where you go into the barn and buy it off the tractor that just pulled in from the field. Yummy describes it all.
Yesterday was spent packing up the big stuff to haul home to CT. A friend of ours drove down in his pickup to help out. Of course, driving home on the NJ Turnpike and various NY roads at 70 mph, I was a little worried stuff might fall out. But everything was fine until we got about a mile from home.
On the Merritt Parkway, our friends truck about 10 cars ahead of us. All of a sudden traffic is coming to a screeching halt and I notice that the truck is the first car in the line of stopped cars and there is stuff laying on the side of the road. Turns out that a car in front of him lost two kayaks off the top and they were headed right for him. Lucky bounces took both of them off the road but it was close.
Got everything out of the old homestead at this point. Now just have to find a place for it at home.
Later,
