Granny's gone and done it again

I only hear from my family if they want or need something.

That is my brother. Luckily he doesn't have my phone number.

yeah time picked up this afternoon. You could always mix them up in the morning and put them in the fridge until you fry/bake them. Or whatever you’re doing. I fry onions in butter then fry the meatballs in the grease.

I bake my meatballs.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

hmm None of my family must have my # either
Maybe I will go mix the meatballs. I just asked Robert again and he is trying to tell me how to make them. LOL He wants mac and cheese in the middle. Not happening

 

[CapricornFarm]

I will have to . I am going to bake them. Nothing says if I need to turn them or not

I usually cover mine with aluminum foil and then take the foil off for the last half hour. I don't turn them.

Good night folks, i am going to chill.

Did you get a lot of rain, h2o? Do the PWDs like it?

It’s been raining. They don’t mind it but oh they are a mess when they come in.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

HA ! Still frozen.

That damn buff lace polish tried to flog me again today. I was trying to put food in his cage. As soon as i get rid of all the turkey leftovers, he will be soup. I grabbed him by the leg and bashed him on the ground several times. Then tossed him back in the cage.

My Serama rooster had a case of bad manners... he'd come after me inside and outside the coop. I corrected him and he doesn't do it anymore. Armed myself with a thin little stick and poked at him anytime he moved toward me or anytime he crowed in front of me. If my poke didn't stop him, I would move him around the run and be the aggressor. He finally gave up and I am proud to be the top roo!

We didn't get rain today. Ground is still wet and the trees are clean!

No, my BFF is not married. Her husband died of cancer, and then once she finally found a BF, he died suddenly when he was buying a house to be near her. And she has had about 4 of her dear dogs die of old age recently.

Oh my. Sure did put my foot in that one making a joke. Sorry!

Yeah, Motrin didn't help much. I haven't picked up the rx for that yet.

If it is just Motrin why don't they tell you to go get the Costco size bottle and take 3 or 4 instead if 2 if the Rx stuff is heavy duty??

Bruce Allmighty said I have said a lot dumber things. I am gonna take that as a compliment

As it was intended

@bruceha2000 I have a food thread. I'll tag you there. And moms usually have good recipes.

I don't get the tagging thing, no alerts. But I did copy/paste from your post and am following it, thanks.

Yes but this is isnt a rue. If you cascade the flour into the melted Butter it shouldn't be a problem. It's highly likely your using to much flour.

OH YEAH! First time my younger sister and I tried to make gravy it was Thanksgiving at her and her husband's house in MA 39 years ago. We didn't have the benefit of having helped Mom make it before. Kept adding flour to the pan drippings and stock and stirring. Waiting for it to thicken up. Made great glue, could have put up wall paper. THEN I asked my Mom or older sister, don't recall which, how to make gravy. Been making good gravy ever since.

No but i had hubby send the picture to the contractor guy. He says he has been in the hospital with a stroke and a heart attack again. Idk why he still smokes.

He is hoping to put you out of your misery.

Here’s one I made for gumbo not long back.

Wow, you work FAST!

Fresh has more flavor and more health benefits, but nothing wrong with having powered garlic on hand. It's a basic staple, kind of like salt and pepper.

Um, no, it is THE staple. I use it WAY more than any spice or herb I have in the cabinet.

Alley's got the answer. Whack it! Makes it easier to chop.

Makes it easier to peel. Cut the bottom off where it was attached to the rest of the head, put it on the counter and using a broad blade knife flat side down on the clove then whack the side of the knife with the heel of your hand. Then the peel is easy to get off. At least that is how I do it.

dogs been asking to go out for an hr but Nugget crawled in my lap for a nap for the first time ever. Whats a girl to do ?!!!

Sit in the chair with a cat in your lap! In our house, the phrase is "I can't, I have a cat in my lap".

So on thanksgiving my uncles wife told us that her family is coming for Christmas and apparently we have to do all the Christmas stuff in the movies. Christmas pjs, games etc. Uhhhh and I’m in charge of organizing They are not contributing at all, I’m supposed to go out and buy everything to make her family have a real American Christmas.
Highly thinking about skipping Christmas to sit in my pjs at home. I swear you can’t just crash the family. She’s already too touchy feely for my liking.

I believe you are going on a world cruise and won't have time to do all that work for them. I'm guessing you don't consider the uncle's wife your aunt. My aunt and uncle are fabulous people. I'm not even going to tell you which is a blood relative because far as I'm concerned they both might as well be.
