vent time
I am dog tired. I had a melt down today and somewhere in there I had a panic attack too. My poor son he was ready to rip someone a new---Hat... Cant yell at the feds and I need the cooperation of the bank.... But DAng I hired the bank To do a specific job. Follow Through didn not happen.... Plus I had an
amazon charge on Monday for 128 Dollars preciecly charged to The trust Fund account.
Someone else will get a reaming if I fin out who did it... But it looks bad.... it looks like I was using that account for my own purposes....
Any hoo I had to decompress by doing a little work in the kitchen... pot and pan clean up And for some odd reason bEfore the melt down I brought in the frozen other half of the turkey... With thoughts of cooking it this weekend and basically augmenting the slim pickins off the first Turk Half...
So I read my mail.... Melt down one... I was already winded from bringing in the frozen halfie. Then I checked my bank account... and I started crying... I dont think my son has ever seen me full on Cry... Choked up yeah...
So I got out my new cutting board and ran hot water over the halfie... Yah Yah I know... But it was eitther that or put it on the floor and hack at it with the biggest Cleaver... I got the wings off as they defrosted and used my new Filet knife to worry at deboning a mostly frozen Halfie.
I extracted a wooden mallet from my jewelry tools... Never did find a use for it.... So I banged on that cleaver because it scares me... I have no idee what possessed me to buy it., But it was very satisfying to whack that Cleaver throuigh Joints.
I chopped the neck into two pieces, I removed the back bone and chopped it I cut up the wing and shoulder attachments and then I disected the Leg and thigh... By then I was done messing with this thing and was able to extract the breast meat....
When I turned to the veg that goes into stock I wasd be spattered with Turkey Carnage... had to take a pit bath right there and clean the cutting board... And turn it over.... Some where along in there I had brought home some Chicken Pozole for lunch.... It was scooted around on the floor in its bag while I dealt with my daemons... Still haven't eaten it.
So Now I wait till it boils and then turn it down to a simmer... I have added a cup of Vinegar There are six gallons of water in that pot Not too much....
so in the pot is chpped up turkey bones and all, Seasoning packet made of perforated silicone Filled with bay leaf Pepper corns, Pickling seasoning and Other stuff... put in six onions cut into quarters and a measly few Carrots... And all the rest of the Celery... Oh and two heads of garlic split in half.
ONce the breast meat is done out it comes and I will dice it up for Stew augmentation.... The rest can stay in there till the broth is done. This will be bone broth by the way.
Bone broth has gelatin in it and when you chill it in the refrigerator it acts like Jello... needs to go low and slow for about 48 hours... By then everything in the pot will have given its all...
Geletihn doesent survive The temperatures of the pressure canner... When It comes out it will be just simply awesome broth to use in other dishes.
If I want to Drink the bone broth for health benefits...the only way is to freeze it for long term. I am hoping it will help stop my indigestion and aid in my digestion.
I finally cranked up my Big Burkey for drinking water. its calmed my heart burn quite a bit... By the time I had those filters primed I was coverd in water and the floor was covered in water... But I got yer done... That was yesterdy.
Sorry I had ahalf a cup of reall coffee today.... BAD idea...
going to play some games and settle down a while its 9:00 here and I am tired but not sleepy.
For what its worth I play Solitare and Sudoko... while listening to a new Wire Wrap artist... Oh boy she gave me some ideas today.
