Hey guys! Man, what a beautiful morning here today! It’s hot and dry, but the days have been beautiful. There’s been a pretty good breeze late in the evenings lately, and it makes sitting out on the porch very comfortable the last couple hours before dark.

It’s breezy enough the dern skeeters don’t tote you off, but after dark you don’t want to go outside unless you’re prepared for em! Anyway… A couple days ago I was telling you that Deb and I had FINALLY gotten caught up some in regards to our garden! Phew! Man we’ve been picking, shelling, and putting up tomatoes (no, we didn’t shell these), pickles, squash, lima beans, string beans, and even canned some cakes.

‘Ridin Out The Recession With Dub and Deb in “Miz Judi’s Kitchen’!

Note to Readers: There are a few things that Dub doesn’t know but one thing he does know is that the word ‘Riding’ (as in Riding Out the Recession) is spelled with a ‘g’ at the end.  But Dub not only walks the walk, but speaks like he is: down home, true blue, and plain speakin’ country folk.

Dub and Deb are both native Floridians, live in Central Florida, and run a small business as well. They have five children, and seven grandchildren.

Both love to cook, love to laugh, grow a garden, and generally try to “aggravate” most anyone around them basically…all in good fun, of course!
