Fished incoming tide today. Caught six or seven trout. All released into the inter coastal except one. It was released with the beer.
My daughter helped make fresh pasta. We make it with eggs, flour and a little cinnamon/ nutmeg.
Picked sweet banana peppers, tomatoes and basil from back yard. This is my first upside down tomato garden.
Sautéed the filets and mixed it all together. Really delicious!

That looks great. Fresh fish, homemade pasta and garden vegetables. 
That looks great!
Pasta is something I’ve never made and would like to learn how to. Chicken and dumplings is about the closest thing I’ve ever made to pasta. Tell me more about that please.
And those upside down tomatoes look great too:sunglasses: Tell me more about that if you would please, I ain’t got a clue. We’ve got some real pretty tomatoes this year, but they are all right side up

I used to hang tomato plants the same way , cut about 2" hole in bottom of plastic bucket, insert root ball of tomato set in from bottom with few inches of stem and leaves out , fill bucket w/ good soil while supporting plant , pack soil lightly , water and feed. Hang where it’ll get good sun… Easy to water and feed and easy to
pick… Old paint buckets or most any old buckets work well , I had a painter friend that gave me all the empty plastic 1gal bkts I needed!!!

Larry, Gail wins pretty much nailed how to do the tomatoes. My daughters swing set, slide and trampoline have forced me to move my garden over the last few years. This year I decided to give upside down a try. I sank 4x4’s and ran a 2x6 across. It will make a nice place for a bench swing. Having them hang allows for no training. Also, it limits soil problems and insects. I planted sun golds and romas because I didn’t want too much fruit weight.
As for pasta. It is really easy. I use about two cups flour. Two eggs and one yolk. Get your hands dirty and mix it for about ten minutes. Eventually it will be soft when you pick it and won’t push back . Let it rest for about thirty minutes covered with plastic wrap. I add a little spice to mine because that’s what I like. Do what you want. Then you roll it into sheets and cut noodles. You will need a pasta cutter or “machine”. The one we have attaches to our mixer. Others are turned by hand. Google it and you can have one at home in s few days for 100$. I totally recommend it. You may screw it up a little at first but it is really easy and steps up your kitchen game.

Runbaby, Bonzo, Sulcutaman thanks. This is a go to for any light fish like trout, flounder etc. A personal favorite is crab or sheepshead or trigger or porgy or you get the point. It’s just fresh and clean.

That DOES look delicious! Seeing those awesome photos of the homemade pasta brought back memories.
I’ve had at least 2 pasta makers, and every time I’ve tried to make homemade pasta - and I’ve done this with the best of intentions - it comes out goopy, sticky and overall just not good. So, on the first occasion, we sold the pasta maker at a yard sale. Then, a couple years later, my husband and I were at another yard sale, and sure enough, there was another pasta machine. The woman selling it said, “Oh this is SO EASY! You should try it again.” Bought it. Sure enough… goopy, sticky and overall just not good. Sent that one off to auction. LOL! So, I’ve learned my lesson - BUT, nowadays we can find pretty decent fresh pasta in the deli section of the supermarket! 
Very nice. Impressive.
