A Portuguese Recipe

 
These are recipes from my good friend Quint from Portugal....see, I can follow directions! It would have only been better if I could share with all of you....but trust me when I tell you that it will be a cold day in July before I "gut" any fish to go with this....I don't care how good it would be!

This is a hot dog stand near my Mother-in-Law's house. We went to pick up some food and I couldn't resist taking a shot of this. I have no idea what this vegetable is....I thought it was a cucumber or a squash or something in that family but I have never seen either of those this shape. Maybe it is from gravity? The vine was all through the patio roof and hangs down off the trellis. It was just unbelievable to see. Thought you might like it!
