Master Chef
Fish burgers with the imaginary salad they have at the store.
Risotto is on the menu, with the left over liquid from reconstituting some dried mushrooms last night. I'd better start eating that leftover maque choux, too. I did buy some nice Gulf shrimp yesterday, maybe I'll grill some of those tonight to round things out.
Pac, Watch out for sand in the mushroom water! I learned the hard way on that.
Tonight is going to be shrimp fried rice and ???
Cooking school here today!
My son called earlier in the week wanting to know how to make my stuffed manacotti. After trying to explain it to him, and knowing he was just spacing out, I told him to come to Mama for a cooking lesson.
He and his wife are trying to learn how to cook so I'm planning on having them fix our meal, and instructing them as they go. Praying they still love me when it's over......and hope I don't turn into a Gordon Ramsey.
Cold, Cold beer...in Frosty Mugs......

Oh boy I love mustard greens!!!! What are hush puppies and t-roots Uncle Bob?
Hushpuppies are a brand of shoe here by us
Yep. used to own a pair of Hush Puppy shoes ~~ Hush puppies are "balls" of a type of cornbread batter, seasoned with green onions, garlic, etc. and dropped into hot, deep fat (peanut oil) to fry...Served as an accompaniment to fried fish...sometimes BBQ meats. Legend has it that when dogs were underfoot, howling for food, the cooks would throw them some fried batter with the admonition to Hush Puppy!!!
T-Roots are Turnip Roots...
cornbread
I used to buy Hush Puppy shoes, they are soooo comfy! They've just become way too expensive!
I will try the turnips with mustard greens, it's sounds like a good combination Do you just season them or mash them together?
Would you mind sharing your recipe for hush puppies? They sound amazing
And thank you for the little story about them!
