    Tips for using your microwave

    My mother would take hotdog buns, put hotdogs in them along with whatever else like mustard, chili, etc. Then she would individually wrap them up in wax paper and place on a tray within the fridge. We would grab one, nuke it for a minute and our snack, lunch, etc. was done. That was a...

    Garden 2024

    Even when I buy them, they don't become bushy or lush. They grow taller without adding anything and bolt. It really destroys my chance of Pollyanna bliss when everyone else (or just my sister) seems to neglect herbs but they grow in bunches and batches often year after year. You know? 😠

    Tips for using your microwave

    Momma was so excited to get her microwave and tried to cook many things in it. Things did not generally live up to the hype. My favorite was when she discovered she could pop popcorn in a brown bag. Everyone gathered to watch this! So she prepared a bag, hit the button, and we were all...

    Garden 2024

    Herb question: Every year, I manage to plant seedlings for herbs. They will grow, but are spindly and then quickly bolt. How do I get bushy basil, thicker dill, bouquets of parsley? And how can I get an herb garden that sticks around?

    Club soda

    Life skills. I have a soda stream and make my carbonated water with it. I too like cranberry juice and fizzy water.

    KFC Chizza Review....

    There are so many recipes for apple pies. I personally enjoy the ones that start with fresh apples. Store-purchased apple pie filling is almost always too sweet for me. Search here for apple pie. You may find a great recipe as we have a lot of fantastic bakers - which I am not, sadly.

    Sauce for cheese burger pizza.

    @Cooking4Fun This would be "a little this, a little that. Taste, adjust, and repeat." I would start with eliminating the sugar, dropping vinegar to about half, and going 1:1 with ketchup and mayo. At that point, I would adjust until I had the flavor I wanted.

    What are you doing?

    Excavating around this house would be a nightmare. Ripped up side walks, landscaping, etc. I'll tunnel. ;)

    Tuesday, April 30, 2024: What did you eat to celebrate GW's inauguration as first US Pres in 1789?

    Momma used to make them. The basic recipe is this: a pound of dried noodles, 48 ounces of broth (or water with bouillon,) a can of cream soup, half of a stick of butter. Bring all but the noodles to a boil. Add the dry noodles and simmer for 2 or 3 minutes. Be sure the liquid covers the...

    If it is fresh, Royal Farms Chicken is actually pretty good. I appreciate the breast is not dried out.
