I wanna hold your hand Thursday #519

Snowbirds - such cute little guys. That's what they call folks from the north - Here, there, and everywhere - that head south to Florida for the winter. I'll bet a lot more folks would do the same if they had a free Ticket to ride!

I'd like to hijack this Thursday's for a meeting of the overcooker's anonymous chapter.....


I started a pot of Gumbo.

Had extra stuff (leftover chicken sitting in the fridge, etc) and tossed it in.

Adjusted the recipe to account for the extra stuff.

Now I'm wondering if I have enough room in the crockpot to add the sausage.


Only pot left that's bigger is one of the pots we use for canning.....


I need help.

Ah, took me years before I learned to adjust my cooking amounts to the number of people that would be consuming it! Hey, put half of it in the BIG bowl, add sausage to each and cook separately?

But that would sorta defeat the purpose of cooking it in the crock pot in the first place.....

It SHOULD fit, I'll just have to be careful to not stir TOO hard.

Crock Pots do not come with sideboards ...

Best set the thing on a cookie sheet, because you KNOW you're gonna stir too hard at some point!

I was sick for two days, talk about wiped out?

---------------------

A bowl of gumbo sounds great, I'll help stir.

I don't mind cleaning the stove.

One bowl of Gumbo for the barkeep, with a side of dishtowel!

While you're under the weather, maybe the Edster can help out?
