Cookin again

The flat pack could be a winner. It's all about weight. I'm going to check that out.

They definitely seem like the right choice if you have jars (or jar-like objects). I haven't explored, but I got the feeling the flatpacks aren't resealable. Might be a case where the most cost-effective approach is paying once for jars, then buying flatpacks. Obviously, you know your situation better than I do; I'm just doing the equivalent of thinking aloud.

I have lots of little jars kicking around the kitchen already. Plus my wife just ordered a labeller, so she'll be excited to label some stuff.

Jars didn't seem likely to be the sticking point. Happy to help.

My spice cupboard needs a serious restock, which is what I've been waiting for anyway. I'll try them out for some stuff I need anyway and we'll see how it goes. They have a bunch of stuff I want, and the flats seem reasonable. I'm getting tired of cooking with crap chili powder and crap paprika.

As far as Indian cooking goes, I highly recommend Manjula on Youtube: Manjula's Kitchen

I have a cousin who recently started dipping her toes into cooking Indian cuisine. I just sent her that link. Thanks!

This recipe got my immediate attention. (I’d sub pecans for the walnuts, personally.)

Yum. I'm now convinced to order Indian takeout for dinner. I was rewarded with a "Yay! I love my dad!" from one of my daughters.

My wife isn't feeling so great, so tonight... will be a lemon chicken soup with orzo, with buttermilk biscuits.

Going old school tonight, BBQ chicken, garlic mash, and roasted corn. Comfort food on a cold and blowy day.

Somebody posted this on FB, thought it would be appreciated here: 15 Cast-iron Skillet Bread Recipes.

I'm thinking of making either the Cinnamon Swirl or the Cheddar Bacon Beer Bread. I'd prefer making the latter, but would have to go out for bacon.
