Gosh, I had to freeze a lot of brownies!! Ya know, they sit in there and keep calling you. :he freezer has them shut up now.

it only takes a bit longer to eat them when they are frozen...


Had a head of cabbage that needed to be used. Scraps to goats...but fried up a nice big pan of cabbage, onion, part of chopped up ham hock...tasty. That was tonight. Another couple meals left for later in week.

mmM! :)


Pulled a pint of heavy cream from some milk. Now a pan with 1.5 gal is coming to room temp so I can cheese it. More than I need already but, I won't waste what was lovingly given.

:) yes... enjoy!

I'm cooking a rabbit right now. It was gifted to me. DD sent me an authentic recipe from the other side of the world. I'll let you know how it tastes. Never had rabbit.

Rabbit doesn't have a strong flavor. Only meat you could actually pass off as commercial chicken other than texture

we had it many years ago and i don't even recall what it tasted like. the old joke "Tastes like chicken." seems fitting.

if i felt like hunting and cleaning game we could eat it fairly regularly here along with raccoon and groundhog, but i keep seeing these ticks or some other strange stuff growing on them and that makes me leery of even thinking about it. in a survival situation i'd learn how to set up snares and eat them, we're not there there yet...

Broke out the crock pot this morning and started a roast. Half a bottle of red wine, a pkg of dry, beefy onion soup, onions and garlic and yummy! Some mashed potatoes (1/2 cup serving size) and steamed broccoli. We showed great restraint and didn't throw a pan of cornbread in the oven... :(

the last of the carrot cake (cream cheese frosting with just enough sugar that you could still taste the cream cheese, not too sweet at all) and for something different i put some peanuts on it plus a glass of milk. i thought of putting some chocolate sauce on it but didn't - i think that was a good decision. :)
