I don't even have saffron. ''Tis an expensive spice!

Laundry and trailer cleaning continues. Hubs went to a friend's place to revalue and do some other black magic to the shocks for his desert toy truck and offroadvo. "Oh want to come with?"

I know how going over there ends up. I end up distracting their kids while mom and dad take a break. Which, ok, but not when I have stuff to do.

You can buy saffron rice in a small bag for a buck. I love it so I thought I could make my own. I also thought it came as a powder. I dont know what this was. It wasnt even yellow.

Hi Star. Dont blame you. DD is babysitting a brand new little all night. She must be feeling better or she is nuttier then I thought.

Saffron is actually red-orange. The spice itself is expensive, but I buy mine at Costco or in specialty shops when we take a trip to a big city. You only want a pinch (just a few strands) for any dish. It can taste off if you use too much.

I should mention, my husband is a chef and I worked as a baker for several years, also.

Lol We get drafted into cooking for everything. And while we don't mind if we have time, my husband's family is huge and they all like to suggest us to friends...none of whom want to pay us for the work, because we "love doing it" and "we are friends with so-and-so"

No, it's actually the stamen of a flower grown exclusively in the middle East, specifically Afghanistan. I bought some plants to try to grow my own, so we shall see how it turns out.
