@farmerman,
Fresh mango and banana smoothie with real maple syrup.
In my last post I said that I ate: Sushi, deviled egg, and some kinda red thing.
I was hoping someone would ask me about the red thing. Then I would describe it. Then someone would tell me what the hell I ate.
Phooey on you guys.
You ate a red thing? I'm not good with this sort of conversation, but it's possible I would know.
@Roberta,
Sorry Roberta, when it comes to "red things", I steer clear. Nothing but trouble there! You need to take it up with Edgar.......
@edgarblythe,
I'm sure Roberta knows what a radish is, so that's not it. Probably not a cherry, tomato, cranberry or pomagranate hmmmmm. I don't know.
@glitterbag,
OK, I'll bite - hunk of raw meat? glitter made me do it
@BillW,
No I didn't, you have a carnivore's mind. sniff, sniff
@BillW,
Well, it's 5 0'clock somewhere
It was on the plate with the olives. It was the size and shape of an olive. However, it was soft. It didn't have a skin like a tomato, nor was it wet and seedy inside. It didn't have much of a taste. It wasn't sweet and it wasn't sour.
I'd call the hostess and ask. Problem is she's 91 years old and her memory is failing. She may not remember that she served red things.
If you guys can't help, I may call her and hope for the best.
@Roberta,
Only a picture might offer a clue.
@ehBeth,
Oversized chunk of
pimento (since it accompanied an olive)?
Not pimento, not a roasted pepper. I know what these look like and what they taste like. Thanks for trying.
PS: I checked out grape tomatoes on google. They are the right shape and almost the right color. But my red thing had no skin.
@Roberta,
A peeled grape tomato? Like these?
@tsarstepan,
This is a possibility. I wonder if these are cooked in some way so that the skin is easily removed. That would explain the less than juicy tomato insides.
Thanks, kid.
@Roberta,
I just found an appetizer thing that combined olives with peeled and roasted cherry tomatoes - they look pretty dry
were the red things smooth on the outside?
Fresh-picked honeydew melon.
@ehBeth,
No, bethie, the red things were not smooth on the outside. I think you may have found the answer, except that these were grape tomatoes instead of cherry tomatoes.
Grazie mille
