BakerAunt when I made that recipe of the rye bread way back I used yellow mustard and I didn't have dill seeds so I left that out and added a little more caraway.I liked the bread and it had a good texture and taste.

Chocomouse praying for your family to get better.

I had chicken stock and turkey stock in the freezer and I boiled some chicken to make more stock so I have my dressing made and it's in the fridge ready when I bake it.

I made a double recipe of banana pudding so the only baking I did today was brown the meringue.

I baked two Lemon Supreme pound cakes today for a friend that's having two Christmas dinners.

I baked my corn bread for the dressing and made 4 pie crusts,trying to get it all done.

We had oyster stew tonight.

BakerAunt we love turnips and the greens cooked with bacon and I add some sugar and chicken stock or bouillon , My husbands cousin makes the turnip green soup with black -eyed peas and a lot more ingredients in the crock pot and they rave about it,looks good but I've never tried it.

I went to visit my sister it's an hours drive but rained the whole time.I took her fresh baked lemon sugar cookies and some of the chocolate candy I made with all her gifts and we had a good visit.

Cooking here tonight was easy hamburger steaks and fries.

Len I've done fried chicken like that before too, sure makes it good and tender.

We had char grill chicken that I marinated in Italian dressing,macaroni and cheese and leftover green butter beans.Our son called last night and said he'd be coming home for Christmas for a few days and we're really happy about that.So I'll be doing more cooking and baking than I had planned...smiling here!

We had cubed steak,thickened potatoes and green butter beans.

I also made Cuban Lunch Box Candy.It was a very simple recipe and good.Melt together 1 bag of chocolate chips,1 of peanut butter chips and 1 of butterscotch chips when all melted in microwave or stove top on low is how I did it add 1 cup of crushed peanuts,1 cup of rice krispies and about a cup and half of ruffle potato chips that have been crushed up some not to crumbs stir altogether and I didn't want to take the time to dip so I poured in 9x13 pan with parchment so I could lift it out after it set up and cut in very small pieces.Good.

We had a grocery run today so we picked up Texas Road House food to go,it was good.

Happy Birthday to your wife Mike, I know she enjoyed the cake and I hope her shoulder is doing good.
