Hope your day is a great one! [/URL]

Oh, dear, K-Girl...welcome to the club. Sigh. I bet she had a good laugh after you left. Can't you just see it? Like Snidely Whiplash? Payback or something? I was such a good kid...at least, that's how I remember it!

Someone explained it on this forum before. When I commented not to use Sunflower Oil in baking 'cuz it turns the baked goods a very unappealing shade of green.

To me, even better than rotisserie chicken is an oven roasted chicken, IF you can find a Roaster chicken. Generally 6+ pounds. They are older and have so much flavor. But, they can be hard to find. I guess the chicken places would rather produce Fryers since they are younger?

As past pictures have shown, like @caseydog, I prefer to make my own rotisserie chickens. I have a number of recipes (marinades). I enjoy the process and the end product too. I buy raw whole chickens, when they are on sale. The trick is to get them out to defrost, before you actually want to...

I love farro! Sadly, DH is not so fond of it. I generally cook it in my Rice Cooker set to the Brown Rice setting. That leaves me free to make the rest of the dish. One of my favorites is show below. It isn't a mix of grains, but maybe it is of interest as it is a mix of stuff with farro...

A few years back, we had to argue with the loan guy at the bank about our car insurance. He insisted that our insurance was not good enough. We had a $500 deductible and he wanted us to have $1,000 deductible. Sigh. :mad:

@caseydog, here in the PNW, they now have a pre-surgery chat with you, before they start ANYTHING and the surgeon SIGNS his initials to the appropriate area. Works well. Saying prayers for you and for super-duper doctors and staff!

Halibut, asparagus, roasted baby potatoes....hit the spot!

Sous vide turkey, taters, zuke. It will work.

I'm so sorry to hear that Jez has gone ahead to rainbow bridge. Clearly she lived a good, long life. She was well loved and returned that love too. No matter how long they are with us, it is never long enough. Let the good memories comfort you, until you meet again. There will be a joyous...

Finally got around to making Cheese & Onion Enchiladas. They go into the oven, soon. We'll have them with some Restaurant Style rice and freezer Refried beans. Yum!

Cheese and onion are my very favorite. Up here, they charge $1.75 to add the flippin' onions! What's up with that? My homemade are better anyway. I made tacos last night and taco salads the night before....but I'm seeing enchiladas in the near future!

Babe I'm Gonna Leave You - Led Zeppelin <--Kind of works with last 2? That's just not right! Changing after I've already posted. Harumgh! :mad:

My "Turbo-Tax" is named Steve. Been using him since the '80s. Don't know what I would do without Steve!
