Peanut butter plus a dab of cottage cheese! And of course, plain dunked in milk.

"Don't forget Pussers and the famous Pain killer. The best served at the Soggy Dollar." - Yes!

Appleton VX, Havana Club from Cuba and Cruzan are my favorites! Flor de Cana is overrated. 7 Fathoms is based in Grand Cayman, and the barrels are aged in the sea, in a secret location. At least that is what they say :-)

Sunny, cold and clear here in Texas, the wind cuts like a knife. Dinner is pasta with mustard greens. Tomorrow lunch is leftovers from the week. Tomorrow dinner is flounder with a sweet and spicy ginger sauce and some rice. Saturday I have two parties to go to and football to watch, so probably whatever I can order to go. Yay, the weekend is almost here!

My mom automatically salts and peppers everything she eats before tasting it, even salad! Used to annoy me, but now I just let it go. I don't salt anything before trying, but I do admit to having a free hand with the pepper.

I bought myself a $6 hand mixer today at Wal-Mart. I don't need one often enough to justify spending any more. But after mixing cookie dough over the weekend with a wooden spoon, and my arm almost falling off, I decided to drop the cash. Also decided I needed a gym membership.

I would like to use up my leftover cranberry sauce in a coffee cake, but not sure about the consistency since it is gelled...if I thin it a bit with water, do you think it would be possible to use in the Smitten Kitchen cake?

Enchiladas with leftover olives, bell peppers, spinach, a dab of rice, add sauteed onion, chopped turkey, green and red sauce, green chilies, corn tortillas and cheese. Really good! I call them turk-chiladas :-)

Cereal and coffee for breakfast, work all day to try and put some projects to bed before the holiday, then a beer and wine run which takes half an hour as I live in a dry town, followed by a late lunch/early supper of frozen pizza, then cooking the cranberry sauce, apple cake, hominy casserole, brining the turkey and getting ready to haul it all out to MIL the next day, washing the dishes, cleaning the kitchen and then hitting the bar for some live music. Whew, can't wait til Thursday when I get to eat, sit on my butt and watch football. Go Cowboys!

Neat!

Cookies, kolaches, pie, croissants, red velvet cake only - all prepared by me, and all of it gone by the end of the day, so there is no waste :-)

Turkey soup with corn, beans and any veggies that can go in, plus leftover turkey stock. I only make it once a year, and it's worth the wait!

Meatloaf, slice of melted American cheese, ketchup, whatever bread I have. Sometimes mayo.

Tomato bouillion - made by Knorr or Maggi, you kind find it in Mexican grocery stores.
