I keep frozen vegetables in the freezer (part of my monthly stocking-up
trip to Publix, along with meats and fish). I do buy fresh vegetables
at the farm stand every week or so. In fact, I just got back from the
farm stand. I bought a lovely purple eggplant and some zucchini. Cost
me a whopping $5. (I'll be damned, the guy put it in a bag for me!)

I'm thinking I'll slice and fry the eggplant. Dredged first in an egg
wash, then dredged in a mix of cornmeal and seasoned flour. I haven't
had fried eggplant in a very long time.
