      I wish they had stated whether they were white eggs or brown. I buy my eggs by the dozen, but transfer them to an 18 count carton when I get home so I don't have the carton on hand. Since I rarely buy white eggs I think I'm probably safe, but would like to be sure about the brown eggs I have in the refrigerator.

        Our friend offered to cut my squashes in half and did it after driving us to the doctors on Tuesday. I roasted them and when they were cool emptied them. Wednesday I used my immersion blender to smooth them out and seasoned some for today and froze the rest. Thannks for your help everybody.

          Thanks Baker Aunt. We both are very senior citizens and no longer have the strength to do the many cuts it takes to peel and cut the squash up to steam it as we used to do. I think we'll have to have our friend who is much younger cut it in half and then I can finish the prep.

            Baker Aunt, Could you please describe how you cut up and roast butternut squash or send a link from here that covers it? Thanks in advance and anyone else who wants to chime in please do so.

              I've been working on developing a scalloped oyster recipe using our home grow oyster mushrooms this week. I think I finally have "The One". I'm allergic to shellfish so have to have the oldeman check it out to make sure the recipe works and he said this last one is as close as I'll get without real oysters.

              We have a mushroom grower friend who comes to visit three or four times a year and I try to come up with something new made with mushrooms each time he comes to visit. Looks like "scalloped oysters"
              will be on the menu this time.

                Thanks Sarah. I've still got some nice pecans left so I'll try a couple of those recipes. I'm sure that my DH will be happy about that. He does get tired of the plain ones. I have switched over completely to pecans or sunflower seeds as those seem to be the ones we prefer. We've never really liked walnuts in baked goods or out of hand.

                  Sorry it took me so long to report the results. There was another accident involving neighbors where our road enters a four lane US highway. Fortunately no one was killed this time. In January the highway took a family of four leaving one son a complete mess and 5 other children with no parents.
                  That highway claims at least 2 lives a month in a 20 mile stretch.

                  The baked steak turned out great and now will be returned to our meal rotation, Thanks.

                  And HOWDY to you Cass. I wish some of the others from the OBC would join in here, although I am enjoying some of the newbies. They add new spice to the discussions.

                    For you former OBC members, yes I am that oldelady although a LOT older now. I have been lurking since Mike started MNK and have decided it was time I started contributing although I don't do much baking anymore.

                      Thanks Joan. That sounds like it. I knew I could find an answer if I asked here. All the websites I found called for "real steak" and all kinds of soups with herbs and spices when all I wanted was a simple dish without those extras. One even called for goat cheese! Well I'm off to start supper, baked steak, mashed potatoes and home grown and frozen haricot verts (fancy French green beans) and home made applesauce for dessert.

                        PS I do remember that we used Lawry's seasoning with the flour.
