Oh meara, I wish I were closer and actually capable of a decent massage! Everything is harder to deal with when you are in pain. {{Hugs}}

Thanks everyone. Yes, this is the part of being the owner that is hard, and I do take it very seriously. I know it's the right decision, but yeah. I need a bourbon.

Looking back over the years the biggest mistake I have made in business was not making those decisions when I should have. We have kept people on past when it made sense. May the bourbon help!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

That is why I can never even be a real manager. I have a hard time having "crucial conversations". I am good with student workers about that, but I find it almost impossible with people my age or older. I've tried to be better about it now that I am training someone, but sometimes, in the moment, I am just flabbergasted by people.

To distract myself from my work stress, I am getting obsessed with making keto friendly thanksgiving dressing. I have looked at a lot of recipes, and determined that I don't have the bandwith to also bake keto bread, so it looks like cauliflower is the base. Last year I tried eggplant and it was not a success.

Most of the recipes don't include broth, and I feel like that is an essential ingredient, but clearly cauliflower has more water than bread. The way I was taught to make stuffing was to leave the bread to dry overnight, and in the morning boil the turkey neck/liver/other random things that come with the turkey. Then you spice the dry bread, celery and onion, cut up the liver into tiny pieces and add to the mixture pour in the broth and an egg. The moosh it up with your hands and stuff in bird to cook/put in pan to bake.

Do you think I could do that, but with cauliflower? This type of stuffing is basically glop. so maybe I would be satisfied with a sort of baked cauliflower mash with seasonings and turkey bits?

I feel like the purpose of bread in stuffing is to soak everything else up, and I'm not sure cauliflower can do that. Hm.

Would probably be tasty, though.

My family stuffing recipe is similar to yours, just a little simpler. Let the cubes of bread dry out, mix chopped celery and onion into it with your hands, bind with an egg if you like (Mom skips the egg and it's fine, soften up with a little water and saute a painful at a time in butter. I guess I do use broth instead of water if I'm not actually stuffing a bird. We don't add the liver to the stuffing, that gets fried in butter separately and eaten on toast by the cook.

Which doesn't help solve the bread problem at all.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have cleverly tricked Husband into becoming interested in GBBO, mainly by having it playing while he's in the room.

Urk, I've barely gone outside today because the air is so bad but it's still giving me a headache.

JZ took Matilda to work today where the medical buildings all have highly filtered air.
