Good Eats

Roasted a turkey, made real mashed taters and gravy, dressing and corn for dinner yesterday. It was just tremendous. We ate until we almost popped. Was a lot of work but well worth the effort.

Cooking the carcass with sage and onions and carrots and celery and bay and pepper and herbs. mmmmmmmmmm Meat is in a pan in the garage fridge and will get that packaged up and in the freezer for later use. Will have turkey enchiladas, turkey sandwiches, turkey and noodles, turkey and biscuits. Yum. Best of all, turkey tetrazzini. mmmmmmmmm

Think turkey enchiladas sounds just right for tonight. After finishing the laundry will have a short nap then get to making the sauce. If I had tomatillas I'd do enchiladas verde but don't want to drive 20 mile for 10 tomatillas.


ETA: the enchiladas just came out of the oven and they smell yummy. Tried a new sauce recipe but think I will stick with my tried-and-true one just because we like it best.

Stop the Spying!

About Me

A hobby cook from the Midwest. Experiments, thoughts, new recipes, maybe even a photo or two... You noticed the pouting little girl with the words superimposed over her face? Growing up in the 60s and 70s the refrain of "there are starving children in [insert current poverty-stricken nation] that would love to have such... etc etc etc." I don't know that anyone actually believed all that but the image of a starving foreign child, holding out a bowl in hopes of being gifted with boiled tongue or green tomato pie, was pretty powerful. I do recall the kind of trouble kids would inevitably be in if they dared to say what most of us thought: "Well, then, send this stuff right on over to those poor, starving [insert country] kids." I don't usually post other people's photos, just my own. If you want to borrow or use one of my photos, I would appreciate your asking first. I usually don't mind but do hate having my work attributed to someone else. By the way, I found the photo of that pouting girl on the web with no attribution. If it's yours? We'll deal, ok? Thanks.
