Today I made the following absolutely yummy things:
- Oatmeal!
- Eggplant faux parmesan (which is better with basil than salad mix but still tasty)
- Barbecue (not local) ribs (from the farm) with parmesan (not local) celeriac (from the farm)
- 2 loaves of the Joy of Cooking’s Sandwich Bread
- APPLE PIE (local apples, non-local butter, sugar, and flour)

The winter task for the dehydrator has become bread-riser. It works wonderfully. And fresh bread is wonderful, not only for a house-ful of aroma but for toast.

Yesterday was the first big snow of the season - a snow emergency was declared, plows were roaming the streets, and it was a great day to stay home and hide.


First, of course, we had to shovel our walk. But then we stayed inside, baked, cooked, and played games all day.





Thankful

We’re thankful that yesterday we helped folks carve turkey and contributed to conversation and laughter.

At the House of Roses, we roasted (rose-ted?) turkey

made stuffing



made gravy (!!)


and ate.

Here’s the scoop on this round of babies:
