Whose Cooking?

Hey yall. I am cooking. Fixing potato salad, mixing up my dressing, and fixing to bake pumpkin pies for tomorrow. Was just wondering if anybody else was already cooking. I have to sit down and rest my knee after each little task, but it gives me a good 'scuse to get on DS and check on things. We had an extra turkey so I threw it in the oven last night and am now fixing to make turkey salad out of the leftovers. Dad is cooking our turkey for tomorrow in his rotisserie thing. Hope yall are having a good evening. I am off to peel eggs and chop onions. Wish me luck!! ;)

Hugs & Love,
Chelle / Zany

Hey Z, can you divert that magic carpet all the way up here to Vermont to pick me up, too? We are going out for a buffet at a local restaurant, but sweet potato pie and collard greens cooked up with some bacon sounds sooooo much better. I think I need to move down south, southern cuisine does sound a lot better than New England food. I am jealous. :(

I have just been over to a friend's house to save her because she didn't have any stuffing mix. I furnished the cornmeal and the eggs and instructed her on how to make cornbread so that she can have good ole homemade dressing. Yum-O. Bring on the carbs!!!!!!! I am not afraid!!!!! ;)

Rum and tryptophan. What a combination!! I would like to have a fuzzy naval...........well, maybe I do already. Let me check. hehehe. I haven't had meds yet so I am a bit crazy fun!! Why take meds if I feel this good without them? Because I know I will feel far far far worse if I don't. ;(

I forgot to add that our best friend is making a turkey Fri so we can all have leftovers and another friend is coming over to visit Fri for our usual tea/sweet treat visit. We'll be decorating over the weekend so it should be a nice holiday weekend all around!!

Just put the brined turkey in the oven. We were going to smoke it, but I forgot I bumped the smoker into the pond (with my car, when manic--or course-- this summer...it has a wobbly leg and won't hold the weight of a turkey)

We still have to make a cherry pie, a khalua cake, garlic mashed potatoes, green beans and ambrosia. We are going to the kids adopted grandparents house for lunch at 1pm--don't ask, way too early for this girl. And my son is at wrestling practice until 11a.m.

My husband is doing most of the cooking thank God...I am a mess this morning after a middle of the night anxiety attack. I think I will just do the pie & cake.

I think I will taste test the Khaluah before I start cooking. I might need to check it again and again--all for the sake of our guests of course!

I'm cooking and that sucks. But at least I get to pick the menu.

Prime Rib, Creamed Horseradish.....a big must. Veggies, candied yams and Apple Pie ala mode.
