Sorry to say, but this site has been so depressing for a few days. I thought I'd ask an average, everyday question....to make us all feel a little more normal today.
I made Eggplant Lasagna, and my BIL and SIL are coming for dinner. They leave for Cali tomorrow to see their beautiful grand daughter.
Sorry, sometimes we just need some REGULAR conversation.......or at least THIS caregiver does.
Do you buy the bags to go inside the crockpot? I never use them. I just wash out my crockpot after cooking. Those bags seem like it’s just something else to spend money on.
It always comes out pretty good.
Have you cooked corned beef in a crockpot before? I like to do pulled pork in the crockpot or a chuck roast.
My daughter raves about Mississippi pot roast done in a crockpot. I haven’t tried her recipe yet. Her friend cooks it and gave her the recipe for it.
I love corned beef and pastrami too!
Geaton, your dinner sounds amazing!
I haven’t ever cooked corned beef. I have ordered it from restaurants and enjoy it.
I love cabbage. I love potatoes no matter how they are cooked.
I’m not really a whiskey person. The Irish love it. I don’t drink much but when I do have a cocktail I prefer gin.
I have a friend from Boston who'd make an unbelievable Irish lamb stew with whipped potatoes... to die for.
Mine is a delicious beef stew! My dad’s family is part Irish. Mom made wonderful beef stew for us to enjoy.
Same thing happened on vacation in crowded Williamsburg. I went to the lost and found. My husband thought I was crazy.
Both times I got all of my money back. Lots of cash that I shouldn’t have put in my pocket.
I said a prayer to St. Anthony, patron saint of lost objects. My husband thought I was nuts! LOL The best one was when I found my husband’s wedding ring on the beach in the sand!
I have found tons of lost things. My daughters joke around and say that I should start a website saying that I will pray to St. Anthony and charge a fee! Hahaha 😝
Mom reupholstered it once and found tons of change that had fallen out of his pockets into the chair.
It’s true . It’s more rare to find money now .
Nobody ever loses $20 bills in my car . 🤔🤔🥲
We’re having salmon and vegetables for dinner this evening. Salmon is one of my favorite meals! I also made a big pot of vegetable soup to enjoy for lunch during the week. I make soup quite often.
Nothing like fresh but, frozen thawed works in a pinch :-)
I get what you’re saying. I absolutely hate beets. I have never liked them. My bosses wife invited me over for dinner at their home. She was an excellent cook and I enjoyed eating dinner with them.
Well, one day she offered me beets. I politely declined. She insisted that I would like ‘her’ beets. So, I tried them. I discovered that I still hate beets no matter how they were prepared! LOL 😆
Sometimes, it does make a difference who is cooking though, so yeah it’s good to at least try something again.
Oh yes, there is definitely a “pumpkin” overload everywhere!
I am going to let your grits comment roll off my back! LOL 😝
