Pic of the day:
For today:
One of my
favorite meals is Chicken and dumplings.
Sherry is not a fan, so she never prepares it. Once while mama was at
our house and bedfast Sherry was at work. I thought it was a great time to fix dumplings.
I went
to mama’s bed and ask how to start then I was back and forth after each step,
The final step was stirring and moving them around as she said, ‘It must be
slow and easy to keep some off the bottom.’
After a
sorry looking pot, I went in to mama and said, “Mama, I have a thick soup!”
‘You
stirred them too much son,’ she laughing said. I never tried again. When we were in GITMO my workday ended before
Sherry’s so we took times with supper. My meal was mostly meat loaf and canned
veggies.
Now I
share cooking with Sherry and I try to be the dishwasher at least 9 out of 10
times. Today she is doing pinto beans, salmon patties, cabbage and cornbread. I will
get the cabbage core. I enjoy it with salt. Does anyone out there eat the
cabbage core?
She
does a great fish stew. I prefer oyster stew, she doesn’t; however, her stew
comes so close to oyster stew I love it too.
Most of my cooking
is in a slow cooker. I graduated from the pressure cooker, now the slow cooker
is great. I do a good Beef Stew and chicken with rice. She isn’t crazy about
rice from the Microwave, but tolerates it. Most of our meals for two last at
least two days; at times 3. I like leftovers.
Neither of us likes to waste food.
Ma
lists a lot of recipes with her blog they all sound good. AND I KNOW Myra likes
HOT stuff. What is your go-to meal? Is
there one you use the most?
