Yes I just got a new container of Blackberry freezer jam out yesterday.  I just can't figure if it's better on toast or ice cream.  Makes a good milkshake as well.

I would know whether to eat it or call NASA.  Don't keep us in suspense.

Is that a recipe from the Area 51 cookbook ?

Sonoran

John,

I found it on Allrecipes.com

They call it Amish White Bread.  I can tell you the recipe if you like!

We had Whitlock & Flutterby over for dinner last night - I fixed corned beef, cabbage,  boiled potatoes & sour dough French bread & for dessert made a banana nut cake - pretty good.  Hadn't had corned beef & cabbage for a long time.

Maybe a year?   ???   ;D

Just because something has been done and has not failed, doesn't mean it is good design.

We sure had it last night.  Got that tuba fine tuned again. [scared]

Last night we had sandwiches from Subway... not bad.  DH picked them up en route home from work because kids and I didn't finish homeschool until somewhere around 4:45, and I was smooth wore out.  Between trying to get settled, fighting allergies that are awful this year, getting the garden in, and wrangling three young kids, I just didn't have it in me to cook last night!  But the good news is that I did, in fact, get into the countryplans site on my new computer this morning, so I am making progress. Now if I can just figure out how to download pics to this computer ???

Homegrown Tomatoes

Oven steaks with mushroom gravy (homemade), baked potatoes, a really good salad with vidalia onion dressing, and homemade buttermilk biscuits.  Yum-yum.  There was some leftover cheesecake, but who could handle cheesecake after the rest of that?

Dinner and breakfast.  Fried potatoes with bacon and ramps along with some scrambled eggs for breakfast. 

Ramps in California made possible by a good friend in the far south east. :)

Yes, those ramps were good!  I couldn't eat them right after I fixed them as I had a medical test to be done the next day & I couldn't eat any fat...   :(  Since I fried bacon with the ramps & potatoes...   >:(  But got to eat them yesterday - yummy  [hungry]  I cooked the green stalks with the main part of the ramp - like green onions...  Yes, thank you our friend from back East!  I'll be cooking some more today.

red beans and rice with pecan smoked sausage, jalapeno cornbread, and a big glass of iced tea

tia won't eat it, so i made her pasta with garlic and ragu sauce

she's such a pickey eater

funny, we went to joes crab shack a few weeks ago, and ordered calamari, she actually tasted it,
and liked it, in fact she ate quite a bit

then the next day, i mentioned to her what calamari was, and that i was so proud of her, trying
new things

she said "yuck! i'll never eat that again"

but i said "hey, you liked it, you said it was good"

she said "yes, it was good, but i'm never eating it again!"

strange kid

she gets that from her fathers side

 rofl  kids are so funny about food...  if they don't know where it's from they'll eat it & like it...

We're having burritos - hamburger fried with RAMPS, garlic & a little chili powder; refried beans (Mormon beans as Glenn would call them - they're the dried beans that the LDS church supplies for long term storage - Glenn calls the "Tang" powdered drink "Mormon juice" & the potato pearls "Mormon" potatoes...  Whitlock & Flutterby have told him he is going to turn into a Mormon  heh

I also have some tamales - so we are definitely having Mexican Mormon food today...  ::)

We're going over to my sister & bro in law's for dinner this afternoon.  There's usually a big crowd & lots of good food!   [hungry]   :)

Happy Resurrection Day!  He is risen!

I am probably not alone. STUFFED.  Traditional Easter dinner. Turkey, MP&G, Cole slaw, rolls, deviled eggs, potato salad, and choice of Key lime pie or coconut cake for dessert.  I've got LO for lunch tomarrow if I am hungry by then.  ;D

Homegrown Tomatoes

We had regular family get-together fare for lunch, only everyone ate up all of Aunt Verna's fried pies the night before, so we didn't have any dessert, but for supper last night, I'd made Korean style curry in the crock pot (Korean curry sounds almost as funny as the Mexican Mormon food).  Oh, and of course, rice. 

Tonight I'm making flipped bird and some kind of bread and a salad.

Homegrown Tomatoes

Tonight it is honey baked ham, peas, carrots, and of course the whole wheat pound cake with strawberries. [hungry]


Homegrown Tomatoes

Scratch the peas... we were out of them so it was broccoli instead.  The ham was really tasty, though.  DH really liked the whole wheat pound cake made with honey instead of sugar.  I was a little surprised because it wasn't quite as sweet or rich as a regular pound cake, though every bit as good, and probably at least a little better for you. 

Will be really glad when we start getting a bit more out of the garden.  Need to go hunt for morels... the previous owner said that they found some last year out west of the barn, so I should get out and look around for them.  There are a lot of wild blackberries and possum grapes, etc., and I bet if we look toward the northern boundary, there should be some persimmons somewhere.

I didn't eat the asparagus when Sassy was gone, so tonight, my punishment was to eat 4 day old asparagus from the refrigerator....

I am helpless to get the right food after she leaves.... d*

I leave him a note telling him what food is in the refrigerators (even which refrigerator  d*)  There was Swiss steak, Swiss chard, (he's Swiss  ::) ) asparagus, strawberries cut up, ready to eat, even Starbucks frappacinos in the bottle (I splurged).  Instead he makes Mormon potatoes & Marie Callendar chicken pot pies!  Drinks instant coffee because he said he didn't have time to make regular coffee...  I throw out so much food everytime I get back from the valley  [slap]  This was asparagus I'd just picked out of the garden & steamed...  he didn't really have to eat it  [waiting]
