While there is still cooking done in my home (Hey, we've got to eat) the interesting recipes and normal clamor of kitchen sounds is not as prevalent as it once was. Until I am able to get back to those days (oh how I hope that comes soon), here are some bits and pieces from my Happily Ever After.
I may have mentioned my ham. Yes, a beautiful spiral cut, bone in ham. I can eat a good ham like candy. Cook it up nice, and lay those delicious pieces of meat out, and I can just eat and eat on it. Over Christmas, God provided us with our very own ham! I was so excited. I had never cooked a ham before. Then I realized that it was pre-cooked, so no matter how I cooked it, it wouldn't make us sick to eat it. Whew, that was a relief.
What we've eaten of it so far has been sooo delicious! Growing up in a family of six, I never realized how big a ham was. Sure it lasted through one meal, but it was usually gone after two or so. For two people, a ham can feed you forever! Well, maybe not that long, but rest assured, I have many plans for my mounds of ham. Last night that included making a homemade pizza.
I was surprised the other day as I reached into my bottom cupboard for some shorting, when I saw this.
Obviously I'm going to become an onion farmer and grow them in my cupboards! My poor onions were forgotten about when I switched to buying the frozen ones. You may call it shameful, but my eyes appreciate the packages of chopped frozen onions a whole lot more than the fresh ones. And really, I just chopped the real ones up and put them in the freezer for later use anyway. Oh, in case you're wondering, I'm no longer growing onions in my cupboard.
