    What did you eat on Monday, April 22, 2024?

    Hot and Sour soup with pork meatballs instead of the usual pork tenderloin I use since the ground pork in the freezer needs to be used up.

    What Are Your Other Interests?

    I craft adult dollhouse miniatures. This involves petit point on the scale of at least 40x40 stitches per square inch, tiny crochet thread (think almost sewing thread), building furniture with balsa wood using Dremmel tools, tiny paint brushes, etc. Right now, I'm crocheting a set of "chain...

    PEI Mussels vs. well, Mussels

    It might be what you have to do to eat them. DGDs were hesitant about it at first until they got a taste of them and no one would fix them for the girls after they were shown how to fix them a few times. Same with crabs. BTW, you have to be careful with frozen tails. Read the fine print. We...

    Cooking spray alternatives and how to clean ruined CorningWare?

    I do recommend the Dawn Power Spray as noted above, but, if that fails, can you use oven cleaner on Corning Ware?

    Cooking spray alternatives and how to clean ruined CorningWare?

    That works pretty good on baked on/fried on grease. Spray it on, let it sit for a while, even up to overnight. Wash with dish detergent and spray again if needed.

    PEI Mussels vs. well, Mussels

    You can order them online. Some companies use overnight, first delivery FedEx. Others use same day air cargo, airport to airport, you have to go to cargo office and pay. It's not cheap either way, but if you get a whole bunch, the air cargo is worth it. The tails can be frozen, shell on or...

    Petty Vents II

    I don't remember where I saw/heard it, but using beer instead of water adds flavor to short-rise time recipes.

    Petty Vents II

    I have a recipe for 60 minute rich dough rolls (pan rolls) and my flat bread can be finished in an hour, but I usually let it go longer, about 90 minutes, or even longer if I hold it in the refrigerator.

    Can I use a smoker box on charcoal?

    Yeah, you don't soak chips or chunks. It just makes nasty smoke that makes your food taste bad. I wouldn't even bother with the chips, just get chunks and use those.

    Didn't anyone eat yesterday? How about today, April 13th?

    I pull a small section down, then, if it looks okay, I pull the rest off to get rid of most of the silk and husk so I don't have that mess at home. Apparently a lot of people do that because they have big garbage cans right there.

    Eggs Benedict

    A place here makes that, except they also add a huge mound of shredded cheddar on top of the eggs and melt it in a salamander. First time I saw it, I was like OMG! The man that ordered it finished, but I don't know how.

    Eggs Benedict

    I just remembered about a brunch special we had once, braised, shredded short rib, eggs Benedict on ciabatta with arugula, lightly sauteed red onions, poached eggs and a parmesan cream sauce. At the same place another time, I had a BLT Benedict, arugula, pancetta, tomato slices, and avocado. I...

    Eggs Benedict

    And then there's Country Eggs Benedict, a split biscuit with thin sausage patties, poached or sunny side up egg, with a whitish gravy made from the sausage drippings (basically sausage gravy without sausage pieces). It's basically sausage gravy and biscuits fancied up. It started showing up on...
