I am going to go visit shrift in San Francisco too!
Maybe I will come armed with booze so I don't get stabbinated. Also, wait a month or so.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Note to self: even if you have a black dress with only a tiny bit of white trim, that white trim will attract your lunch. Especially if it's curry.

The latest is that dairy fat is good for you!
The only tuna fish thing I remember my mother making was a sort of tuna melt on English muffins. Her go-to quick noodle dish was Skillet Dish -- ground beef, onions, green pepper, can of vegetable soup, noodles and lots of Worcestershire sauce.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
One of my favorite comfort foods is ground turkey, sour cream and onion soup mix (brown the turkey first,drain, add the other ingredients and cook on low) served over a toasted english muffin. SO GOOD.

tuna melt on English muffins.
oh, that sounds good. We used to have a tuna melt thing on biscuits that was a recipe off the Bisquik box. Always liked that.
Mmm Scrappy's turkey thing I have almost all the ingredients for. Noted for when I can chew...

Cheese for the win! I knew cheese would never betray me.
I cannot eat ground beef unless it involves a LOT of cheese or is part of a hamburger. What my mother did with ground beef haunts me still. Ground beef, elbow macaroni, and stewed tomatoes. Dear god, just reading that combination makes me bilious. She called it slumgullion, and I concede that she grew up poor in the Depression, but by the late 60s I would think she would come up with some variant on the food. And burnt-offering pork chops. Poor woman, she never really did learn how to cook--though her fudge and meatloaf were celestial. And she could make divinity from scratch.

Timelies all!
My mom made a basic tuna noodle casserole with noodles, cream of mushroom soup and tuna. It was layered.

I now want tuna noodle casserole (childhood comfort food!), and I'm pretty sure Pete would be horrified by it. Which is hilarious, coming from a man who grew up eating mushy peas from a can.

Ground beef, elbow macaroni, and stewed tomatoes.
Add chopped onions, black olives and cheddar cheese to that and it's one of my favorite meals. Also from I Hate to Cook. The recipe bible of my childhood, frankly.

I have had a TON of full fat dairy this pregnancy because it is one of the few indulgences I can get away with as part of my Gestational Diabetes diet, and I have only gained 4 lbs the entire pregnancy.
