Well, I really like your pickle dish

Perfect!

I think I spied a kitchen It looks like a nice place! Is the place you ate someplace you've been before or is it a new one? Spaghetti night

It's trick photography lol. Mine is a dull black. Your gray ones are much better.

Not that you need 20 of them lol but this is the size I have

Yes, hardware store in the paint section. I'm sure even Wal-Mart has them. And places like Hobby Lobby. I tried q-tips too and this sponge thing works much better.

One of these sponge brushes is perfect for cleaning the lip around the IP. I was using a paper towel and a chopstick. This is much better.

Fried chicken last night

I know that more creative ideas will be thought of...today is not a good day to ask me to think lol. But, I came across this link that has several ideas such as stacking beans, rice and chicken to make a rice bowl or burrito. That got me to thinking about @sartoric's wonderful Indian food that she's been making lately.....I bet something like that would be awesome in the IP and you could do it all at once......

@Anna N I was thinking about your tiffin and wondered if you could stack part of it in your IP and cook in it?

Good to have you here, Ian!

This is brilliant!

It was cold here yesterday so that called for red beans, andouille sausage and rice with cornbread and collard greens from the garden.

I understand what low proof on the left means, but what does reliable on the right mean? Like you can rely on it to get you drunk lol?

Steak night

I will make these soon. I am roll challenged. Mine always turn out like little loaves of bread....never like the fluffy rolls.

LOL! I haven't seen the movie yet, but I read the book Well, you know I didn't invent it....I just raved so much about it that it got your attention I wasn't planning on having fish last night but Ronnie caught a grass frog and had to go down to our river and fish for a while. He brought home a nice big drum so I fried that along with some shrimp. Oysters to go with.

Oh good job! I thought I had a murky memory of something like this. Sorry I wasn't any help @ElsieD I do need to experiment. I have a bag of wild rice from Rancho Gordo that I've had forever that I would like to try.

I have not but I think someone here has done a mix like that? I'm curious too....... Or maybe I did and it was a fail a long time ago? My old brain can't remember. @Anna N did you make wild rice at one point?

Anna! You lucky dog!! I am pea green with envy. That is so neat!

Asparagus salad and pizza last night

Yes!!!! Hatch chiles!!!!!! Oh, I'm so glad you found some!! I bet that salsa is amazing. I can't wait to hear what you think. I do not think I could pass up that pottery, though.

Jumbo ham sandwiches

I had leftover fresh made whipped cream. I couldn't let it go bad.

Ok, so I made asparagus again last night. Same method except this time I did 7 minutes. I know I said I was going to do 6 but a lot of my spears were big fat ones so I felt like 7 was better. Success! Not mush, but not crisp. Just how we like it.
