Apple season is the best I haven't gone to an orchard in ages . I need to find one so maybe we can go at some point.

We went to Apple Hill this year. It is up out of Paradise in the sierra nevada foothills

Thank you! I never took notes from my mom and grandma when I was younger. Now that they are both gone for years I have to find the recipes I grew up on. I've had younger people ask if I make giblet gravy, unfortunately that is one of the things I never took notes on. Just always knew my gravy was not the same as my mom's. Good enough for my family, but not mom's.

When you are making gravy the equation is 4 Tbsp. fat, 4 Tbsp. flour, and 2 cups of liquid.
That will make a basic gravy.

Hey I cheat the frosting was bought used all of it just as wanted ..
the cake was great as the top kinda sank like when it
came out.
Morning Bakers, Sorry Jared no longer hunt or fish but you go for it.

The cake looks like a souffle when it comes out of the oven, then it will collapse as it cools.

That's the basis for the gravies I make too, very easy to remember and it can be modified with various add-ins and/or herbs.

Rou base gravy is so good!

Sadly I cannot make flour gravy anymore since my Oldest DD has celiac disease

I have to find an orchard somewhere close so I can drag Bob out to get some yummy apples to turn into more yummy stuff

Cooking the goose tomorrow. Going to have mashed potatoes and giblet gravy to go along with it. Trying to figure out a vegetable, though.

A green bean casserole would be great.

Exactly. Get basic down and you will be able to use most anything to flavor your gravy.
