Uhh.. does the bus stop here????

[DugDbold]

Just joined. Looking around. I started cooking with my wife about six months ago. Seeking a common interest. Something we could do together [she is a terrible golfer]. Found a home... :]

I am an IT Mgr by trade. Eater by necessity. Chef by choice. I found cooking to be a great blend for me and my wife.

Recipes are like 'programs'. They can be modified, backed up, organized, analyzed, and codified.

Glad to find forum for my rants.... LOL

Hiya Doug! Welcome!!!!

 

[cara]

Welcome doug to DC! I'm sure you will like it here ;o)
It's quite strange to hear cooking referred as to a program...

Welcome to DC, Doug! I'm sure you'll like it here!

Glad to have you here Doug. That is very cool that you and your wife are cooking together!

 

[crewsk]

It's great to have you here Doug!

Wow, the only time my hubby will cook, is when I have bacon on. I like it extra crispy, he doesn't and he knows that if he wants it the way he likes, he darn well better cook it himself

Hope you hang out a while, invite your wife to join too!! There are a few couples here that share DC too.

Thanks for the welcomes. I live in Kentucky so y'all [plural of yall] will get lots of Southern Fried recipes from me... :] I have gotten my wife to begin to measure out the old family favorites when she prepares them. Comfort food... Corn Pudding, Ham stuffed with kale and onions, chili with SPAGHETTI, fried eggplant, squash casserole...etc. I'm working on a cookbook of all of those old favorites that were always a "handful of this, pinch of that, splash of something else...... " Will be fun to share that around.

Can't wait!!

My stepdad was born and raised in Peducah before moving here. Funny, there were 9 kids and all of the boys say they don't know how to cook except outside. I think they were pulling our legs!! That many in the house, you learn to fend for yourself.

Okay, Dugger...how about that recipe for squash casserole?

 

[DugDbold]

LOL... first try at this...Squash Casserole

As requested... :] Don't know how to attach files here yet so it's just a copy/paste. This has been a family gathering specialty for years. My wife's mother had it on an old yellowed 3 x 5 card but nobody needed it anyhow... ;]

Ps....

In case anyone wondered about my little "atavar thingy" it's because my wife says the kitchen always looks like somebody dropped a bomb in it after I get done....

 

[DugDbold]

LOL.. it's "Paducah". But you were close. As for your brothers, it's a guy thing. We all claim to be experts on the grill. That's so we don't have to help clean up the kitchen.
