BA cherish that old slow cooker when low was low and high was high. Now low is high and high is really high IMHO.!
Baker Aunt, I was wondering what you thought of KA's alternative sugar. I happened to see it when I was looking through the site to use up my gift card. (again)
I made David Lebovitz's "spiced glazed nuts and pretzel mix". I always substitute Penzey's Arizona dreaming for the cayenne. It is addictive.
I had leftover salsa so I marinated chicken breasts in salad dressing and various spices. I then topped the chicken with the salsa and cheese before baking. I also crushed some taco chips for the top.
Joan, What did happen to those 7 bone roasts??
I volunteered to make corn bread for the chili contest in our over 55 community. I found a lazy person's recipe on "spicysouthernkitchen.com". It called for 2 boxes of Jiffy Muffin Mix and used 1T of sugar. (I like sweet cornbread). Any way they have a variety of Jiffy Mixes now and I used the honey one. The cornbread had just the right amount of sweetness and some of the people asked for the recipe.
I finally made Salmon. Baked it on sheet pan with roasted potatoes and asparagus. The recipe was from Creme De La Crumb. It was healthy and delicious.!
Please do experiment.
We had sticky honey lime chicken which I baked in the oven with acorn squash and baked potatoes. Everything baked at the same temperature which made things easy!
My neighbor brought over her chicken noodle soup. Will be in the upper 70's today vs 50's 2 days ago. Will still be good I'm sure.
Just got back from a bus trip to Maine. Had the worst Reuben sandwich I've ever had. The bread wasn't toasted and it dissolved in the sauerkraut. The corned beef was stiffer than cardboard. Oh well. Last night we had chicken thighs marinated in Japanese bbq sauce, with roasted asparagus and baked potato.

I made Blueberry Pie Bars. I had some blueberries that I had frozen a while ago and they worked fine. The dessert was a hit at our wine event.
My neighbor brought over some figs from her fig tree. They needed to be used pronto. I found a recipe for pork tenderloin with figs and onions. It was a "Simply" online recipe. Dinner was impressive and delicious.
Looks like an interesting recipe. I enjoyed the article too. Thanks.
Last evening we had marinated pork tenderloin with roasted carrots and mashed potatoes.
