    We empty the freezer into a cooler, the fridge and sometimes a box or
    two. It's surprising how much that thing holds!

    Crazy isn't it? The heat is a bit too much to try right now, I think we'd
    lose too much food. LOL

    I'd stock up on blue hubbards if I could find them. They're one of
    Steve's favorite winter squash but we rarely find them around here.

    We like celebration squash quite a bit.

    I know, maybe in another month or two. By then the freezer should be
    emptied enough that I won't need to worry about keeping too much cold.

    I'm not familiar with that one, or is it one that has a different name.

    We're hitting a high of 37c without the humidity today. Of course this
    is a day we're going to Toronto. With luck I will have a restaurant
    review.

    I'm on a chromebook that's all kinds of hacked together so I can't
    cut and paste from a browser window. It's a type of acorn squash according
    to wikipedia.

    We're hitting a high of 37c without the humidity today. Of course

    We're supposed to be in the upper 80s today, then low to mid 90s for a
    few days. Weather forecasters are predicting low 80s for next week.

    this is a day we're going to Toronto. With luck I will have a
    restaurant review.

    Looking forward to it, don't get too many of those any more.

    OK, I'll have to keep my eyes open for it. We should be seeing more of
    the winter squashes in another month or so, right now zucchini and
    yellow crook neck are still going strong.

    This is what I made yesterday. It turned out quite good. I didn't follow
    the measurements as I almost never do. Also used white wine vinegar as it's what I had in the house.

    Looks good. We've still got some flounder in the freezer; I might try
    something like that with it. We have both red and white wine vinegars in
    the house, as well as cider, balsamic, lemon balsamic, rice and white.

    It was quite good. Andrea said she wanted that one moved to the front

    I have white wine, distilled and apple cider. Just haven't been shopping
    in a while.

    Sounds like you had a winner there.

    I have white wine, distilled and apple cider. Just haven't been
    shopping in a while.

    They all have their uses. For instance, when I make sauerbraten, I
    marinade the meat in either red wine or cider vinegar. Depends on which
    I have more of or which I'd rather use at the time. Salad dressings
    usually are made with one of the balsamic vinegars. All depends on what
    I'm making.
