Agreed. I'm short. Maybe I could pass as a friend 🙃🤣

Oh me too me too.

Excellent job! Nope, I'd be the exact same way. You want equal amounts of the good stuff in all containers

That looks so delicious and comforting. I'd gladly dive into that right now. I think the crackers are a great idea! While I like cornbread, I also like dipping my crackers in soup.

Wow, thanks for sharing this. I've never tried it but it looks delicious.

Thanks for reading No....we've never paid. I know there are places around here that we could take it. I am picky lol. I prefer to do it myself. Maybe picky is too light of a word. Maybe control freak is closer? 🤣

I don't mind leaving the peels on for scalloped potatoes.....buuuuuut....I like mashed potatoes better peeled. I'd eat them, though. My mom loves leaving the skins on.

I've suspected that, too, but.....they've passed on everything so far. I'm proud of them. Maybe they are finally maturing 🤣. Our hunter friend leaves today (supposedly....his flight has already been delayed for some unknown reason) so I don't think anything will be gotten. We have another week of deer season plus there is a doe only season in January. We might just wait until then. It's actually kind of a relief not to have to clean a deer and package it etc. tomorrow. Thank you for keeping me company!! Lucky for me, Ronnie stopped on his way to pick up our friend and picked up some on sale choice steaks. Last night was a much easier evening for Shelby lol. But backing up, the usual Lipton's onion soup mix dip to eat while watching football yesterday afternoon. Then the guys went out (taking a portable tv with them for football watching). I threw another board together--this time using the Georgia shaped one in honor of the Bulldogs. The steaks went swimming in the SV bath. Meantime I baked some potatoes, roasted some asparagus, made some hollandaise sauce for said asparagus and deviled some goose and duck hearts and a few livers. As per usual I got a cast iron screaming hot to sear the steaks and dinner was done! Also, earlier, I pulled the last batch of apple pie filling I made from our apples and made a galette. A little whipped cream and caramel to go on top. So.....I have pork chops in mind for Ronnie and I for dinner tonight....I might thaw out another two just in case our friends flight gets cancelled or something......that's never happened before. Anyway, the guys are out putzing around in the garage. Football starts in a couple hours so that should keep them occupied for a while lol. Thanks for hanging out with me--as always, I enjoy you guys a lot

I get what you're saying about heating/warming the tortilla. AND maybe the ones I use are subpar (they probably are) but when I do that they fall apart, tear, I poke a finger through etc. I guess that would mean they are too thin to begin with.

You, sir, are a very smart person! Thanks so much for explaining. What would I do without all of the smart people around here???

🤣 OMG what a jerk! More for you at least....... I DO need a friend in the kitchen. However, I will confess that I might get a tad grumpy at times. I recommend making some gizzards soon. I should do them for just us more often. It's way more manageable when I'm not trying to make tons of them.

I should have asked here sooner--would have saved me a panic attack lol. Super steam would really do the same thing as the IP? Would I use the same amount of time?

*putting the teapot away*

You're very right. I think deep down I enjoy making things harder on myself 🙃

It's like you're in my kitchen 🤣. The cast iron is a complete mess. It's soaking as we speak. I HATE cleaning it, but clean it I shall. They've gotten bigger ones and they try to always get bigger than before. Plus, yeah, I really want a nice dry doe. Bucks are SO tough. It's been years since I've had some really good steaks and roasts because I turn the tough guys all into hamburger.
