THE LATE ROBERT SCOTT--UNHAPPY TIMES IN THE GRAND DUCHY OF CROTON

A reader who left Croton back in 2017 and seldom looked back---recently came across this blog, certain facebook pages, and her sister's parent forum---she ended up knowing more than she wanted to---BUT she found herself fondly remembering the late Robert's Scott's Opus:---Unhappy Times in the Grand Duchy of Croton

She thought newer residents might find it interesting ESPECIALLY with an election on the horizon---and that longer-term residents still here would appreciate the stroll down memory lane.  Your editor agrees and so without further ah-doo:

FRIED GREEN TOMATOES! FROM THE HILLBILLY KITCHEN

Many of us have been enjoying a fresh tomato sandwich almost daily these last few weeks.  Alas, it always becomes clear---some of these will never ripen.  Fortunately, we also LIKE FRIED GREEN TOMATOES. 

The best recipe--for most of us--is an heirloom variety and comes from THE HILLBILLY KITCHEN.  It uses buttermilk. Check out the video at Fried Green Tomatoes EXTRA CRISPY - Heirloom Recipe with Tips - The Hillbilly Kitchen
