Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Blah. I had plans to make dinner tonight. I was just about to start, and realized that I don't have enough cumin or oregano. Now I'm trying to figure out what I can make with what I do have in the house. I have a feeling that this will end up being spaghetti with olive oil, garlic, whatever kind of beans I have in the cabinet, and whatever kind of frozen vegetables I have in the freezer. I think the only vegetable I have that would even remotely work with pasta is cauliflower.
I have a pork, apple, sage pie from this place [link] which is unfortunately right in my neighborhood. I already ate the slice of cranberry chess pie that was intended for dessert.
I went apple picking today! I got a lot of apples. I think that I will make apple butter.
Well, I started out with spaghetti and beans, and added some canned tomato, and some onion and garlic and spices, and I think I ended up with a half-assed version of Cincinnati chili.
I made a wild rice salad with cranberries and pecans. It was my first time trying this recipe, and it's definitely a keeper. [link]
I'm making applesauce. The house smells amazing.
I made a chicken in the crock pot and mashed potatoes and gravy.
Hey, is it that Pintrest chicken in a crock pot, Nora? I was going to try that, but I thawed out Mr. Chicken last night and he's tucked up in a roasting pan right now with onions shoved up his butt.
If it is, let me know how it goes. (I like the idea of it, but I DO like the crispy NOMMY skin you get with roasting. DH and I often wish, along with out friend S, that stores just sold chicken skin, as that really is the most delicious part of the chicken. Yes, I know it's unhealthy. But soaked in lemon juice, slathered with butter and sprinkled with pepper and kosher salt...OMG, so freaking good.)
My applesauce is awesome. SO simple, just apples, water, cinnamon and ground ginger. I'm going to get some pork chops tomorrow and have it for dinner. If I can manage not to eat it all tonight. Also, might make some apple butter.
