Had to get out yesterday and run some errands. Dropped in to the Asian Market. It was PACKED with people. While there were a lot of shortages, their meat section was full. These landed in my cart. We will see what trouble I can get into.

Another mushroom salad with pizza night--ham, mushroom and pepperoni

Wow!!!! You have a lot more skill and patience than I do.

I gotta get to a grocery store soon.... I seem to be out of a lot of things. I hope I can find them when I get there. I've been using up leftovers a lot. Made steak quesadillas Goose and noodle soup with a salad (dressing got away from me here lol) Last night I opened some Wellfleet oysters Made another salad And did a shrimp alfredo

This does it. I gotta make this.

I love that you did this. Food really makes people connect. Thank you....thank you really isn't enough.

I'm hungry for tacos now. All looks so good. And I want your wings. I'm glad you asked that The green beans might be mine...but probably they are our friends that passed from Covid. I'm really really going to miss them. Their daughter came over Tuesday and I told her the following: "On another note, what the heck are we going to do without your mom's green beans?" She laughed--we had been crying so it was good to laugh..... Backstory: We grew green beans for several years, but they never could compare with theirs, so we just gave up and started trading them their green beans for whatever they wanted from our garden. She canned them and gave them to her family and they LOVED them. We miss both of them very much.

No problem! Super easy. Skillet with a bit of olive oil. Salt and pepper. Med. heat until leeks are browned on both sides--around 5 mins maybe....couple glugs of white wine. Cook for about 20 mins until leeks are soft. Drain wine. Sprinkle with fresh parm and broil until cheese crisps up.

Want

Absolutely...and it wasn't much lol. When I canned the peaches I put sugar in already...soooooo, I picked the peaches out of the jar and filled the cup up to the line and then dumped remaining juice in until it again, hit the max fill line. Froze--it was for 2 days but my freezer is set at -2. Then just followed the steps to Creami-fy . Couldn't be easier.

Sooooooo I realize this is waaaaay below what you guys have been doing but OH MY!!!!!!! Just did the peaches AMAZING I love sorbet...ice cream too, but sorbet equals that. We've been sitting here talking---this summer--cantaloupe...watermelon....sooooo many possibilities. Plus. Ice cream.

He says thanks 🤣 I cannot tell you how much he is impressed that you know what that is!!!!!

Lasagna last night.

Further adventures with venison bologna. Ronnie made me a press . Helps with those holes you can see in the slices. Same recipe as above except I added a bit more black pepper. Next time I'm definitely adding some whole mustard seed.

Thank you so much for going into detail. I have read every word of your blogs but it would be hard for me to find specific posts lol.....again thank you so very much. I am excited to have a project to do and this is it.

Many many thanks. I really want to try this.

I'd love the recipe for the chicken rice, too, if you have a chance

Super glad for the update. I think of you guys quite often and wonder what you're up to . I have "elastic ambition" (I'm stealing this phrase--I love it) on days when I'm doing a whole lot of nothing, so I think you're allowed after that big of a day to change your mind! No hair cut for me since March of 2020. I wind it up on my head and look like hell, but I don't care lol. Glad you guys were able to feel comfortable and get in to see someone. Ronnie has been cutting his own hair and he does really well at it. I REALLY need mine done, but I'm just not ready to do so yet. Covid is just rampant here. I love the breaded fish idea. I like stuff like that and it's easy AND no frying. We have too much in the freezer for me to even fit something like that in lol. Ugh, the shortages are not good. Wow and that corned beef price. I'll have to have Ronnie sit down before I share that with him. I don't know if you have or could find a cheaper roast, but you could start early and brine your own corned beef--if you had a place to store it, that is. Maybe you could find a tiny roast and do it in a ziplock, rotating it occasionally....

Ongoing birthday meals.....last night he wanted chicken fried venison steaks Did some goose livers also....was going to save them to make a Bolognese sauce but changed my mind

I have a serious craving for peach sorbet.......

Proof that I wasn't lying lol Creami is very happy to be out of the box.

I just read about these the other day. Cross between a pineapple and strawberry? Interested to hear what you think.

I swear I will be unboxing and playing along very soon. The Creami box stares at me forlornly from the top of the dryer every time I walk by. Life has been crazy so I think ice cream is needed more than ever. I still plan on using my last jar of peaches that I canned to start out with......

Yeah...you know him

Ronnie chose goose for birthday dinner Have to show off his green house cherry tomatoes 😁 Salad and pasta to go with I only make this sheet cake once or twice a year--just a chocolate one with chopped pecans on top. We tend to inhale it. I'm told I have to hurry up and freeze a lot of that to deter us lol
