Winter cleaning Thursday #338!

[Pinot's Mom]

mmmm Beef Stew! I might even have that for breakfast...we were out late at an Ian Anderson show and I'm a little fuzzy...my fingers are also getting chewed on at the moment. Pinot is on my lap again with the computer...don't know what it is, she just needs to be here when I'm on in this chair!!

I made cornbread casserole for lunch today! I'll share!

It's super easy:
One can of chili (I use the kind with beans)
One box or package of cornbread mix mixed up.

Dump the chili in a glass casserole dish.
Pour the cornbread batter over it
bake until the cornbread is done to the temp shown on the cornbread box.

YUMMY!

I do need some hot spiced tea to go with it though.

We are on day 8 with no sunshine. WHAAAA!

MOFF, I'll share with you! That chili sounds real good. RICHARD, careful with that floor! It could be another L & F!

Gosh that sounds so good & very easy to make.. Could I have a bowl of this casserole please..

Easy is the only sort of thing I make! I'm not one for complicated recipes.

Hope you all like it!!!

Be careful with the L&F; I think there's a door to the LOST island!

Ma and Pa recipes!

Only when pressed would Ma write a recipe down - or if someone other than one of her children asked. The rest of the time, we were supposed to pay attention, and help, and learn that way! And with Pa, measuring spoons are generally safe in the drawer - "some" of this, a "little" of that - oh, and hand me some of "that" to throw in ...

[Lady's Human]

It was funny. Ma would never write e recipe down unless asked and asked again, but she was the one with precise ingredients.

There are some recipes which are tough for me to give to people, (Like fish chowder, beef stew, etc), because the ingredients vary from batch to batch. If I give someone a recipe, it's most likely that's what I put in the last time I made it, as opposed to a hard and fast formula. (One comment to the US Army.......Peas DO NOT go in beef stew!) Those are pretty much Pa recipes.

Macaroni and cheese, rolls, coffee ring, and others are recipes I can give someone in 5 minutes. Those are Ma recipes...........sometimes never written down, but ingredients are in measured quantities.

Wait, does this go into thursdays or the boiled egg thread?

[DJFyrewolf36]

Beef stew and chili casserole? Bring it on! Two things that even I can make for myself...and am thinking about doing...after I have a healthy two or three servings of each here

The cats are asleep on my monster pile of laundry...don't wake them unless you want pawprints all over the bar...

[Lady's Human]

(sneaks up behind sleeping kitties.......BOO!)

[pomtzu]

I don't follow a recipe for most everything I cook. It's going to be hard to pass anything down, since my way of cooking is just to "dump" some of this and a little of that.

Except for baking of course, since those ingredients have to be pretty precise, unless of course you don't care if the cake rises or not... Is that how flatbread came about???

[RICHARD]

Oh.

More stuff to clean.

I am bushed, it's hot and muggy.

Let me pour some drinks and I will be back later on to do some more?

I have to get ready to be schooled tomorrow!

DONE!
