Cookin again

[Cadence]

I haven't had it in a pie...yet. I like the Keebler cookies. The mint and chocolate is a great combination.

The topping is melted semi-sweet chocolate mixed with sour cream - it really drives the taste.

Sour cream? That's a new one for me.

It works really well together! I was surprised when I learned what the ingredients were.

Friday night fry up using the air fryer. Pies can be done in the air fryer but used the oven.

Front one is half a potato top pie (beef and potato) the back one is Bacon and Egg.

The air fryer was one of our great discoveries during the pandemic. I blush to think of how much I've spent on appetizers over the years where the restaurants were clearly just tossing frozen meals from the grocery store (or their restaurant distributor subsidiary) into an air fryer.

The air fryer was one of our great discoveries during the pandemic. I blush to think of how much I've spent on appetizers over the years where the restaurants were clearly just tossing frozen meals from the grocery store (or their restaurant distributor subsidiary) into a deep fryer.

And adding a dollip of sauce.

Went to one place and ibtgink one of their desserts was a microwaved supermarket pudding. It was cheap but still.

Mom's Christmas cookies and candies waiting for the family party to start for Christmas Eve. And I was in charge of the roast beast again this year (it was a bit bigger than we needed... but that means lots of leftovers).

We have a pork shoulder slow-roasting in the oven. We'll roast some green beans to go along, later.

Table last night.





My favorite chicken apricot Moroccan salad.


Didn't eat that much. Didn't really like most if the "traditional" dishes (roast lamb, vegetables etc)
