      I made Holy Yum chicken with maple syrup and Dijon mustard. I did add a little honey with the maple syrup per one person's suggestion. It will definitely be a repeat.

        I made Mozzarella baked chicken. I think the onions which I sweated rather than fried were the star of the dish. I had to empty the refrigerator and cabinets and somehow I found the perfect recipe for what I had left.

          This recipe looks good! I hesitate to use my slow cooker because even on low it cooks too fast. I would have to use my oven. Instead of upping the temperature requirements on slow cookers for health requirements and destroying their whole purpose why don’t they just put a “use at your own risk” warning? My old slow cookers worked fine and I never had any health issues using them.

            I have pretzels and cheddar cheese wanting to be used. I found a recipe for chicken cutlets that uses honey mustard, crushed pretzels and cheddar cheese. Why not?

              I bought a big bag of onions for the two of us…..probably on sale. So I caramelized a few in the oven and put them on top of my baked chicken thighs. I froze the rest. I was going to make French onion meatloaf for tonight but I may copy Joan and make soup instead. It’s cold here in Florida.

                We had marinated pork tenderloin. My husband is a meat and potatoes man whom I should have converted . I refuse to pay the current beef prices so pork, shrimp and chicken have been my staples. I did see cod on sale at WinnDixie or Publix.TBD.

                  I boiled some TJ's red pepper soup and added meatballs and filled pasta pillows. A little spice here and a little spice there and ....not bad.

                    Two days ago my husband found ants in the bathroom. He wasn't as humanitarian as some of you, he didn't trap them and release them, he smashed them and then put out ant traps. Our house sits on a slab and somehow the ants came up for the holiday festivities. Bad move.

                      Sounds interesting but too much work for dogs in a blanket. For a wine event I made crescent roll pigs in a blanket (smoked sausage) with rosemary springs around the rolls and a cranberry mustard sauce in the middle. I found the idea on the internet. Not a sophisticated crowd and they went quickly.

                        Thanks for the recipe CW! I'll try it when I run out of my mix.

                          If you tried the real imported Finlandia regular (not lacy)cheese you would not find it bland. I think your comment about the 60 day requirement for raw milk explains why they use pasteurized milk instead.

                            My husband loves brownie brittle. I found a Betty Crocker mix at Dollar tree. You had to mix it by hand and press it into a pan. It was a pain to make but it turned out amazing. I believe it has been discontinued but I found more at another DT. Finally I realized that I could use my mixer with the paddle. It was now a piece of cake (brittle) to make. I don't know what kind of cocoa was used but I did read that the mix contained some GMO ingredients. The expiration date is November something but that doesn't matter to me. This brownie brittle is much better than Sheila's.

                              I like the cheese made with unpasteurized milk. I think the Finlandia cheese which I liked is now being made in the US with pasteurized milk which takes away from the flavor. I'll have to try the Emmantaler . Finlandia is good in a sandwich.

                                I made steak and ale soup from cuisine at home. I found it to be very bitter (I assume from the ale)and it was tasteless. So I threw in some poultry seasoning, some various Penzey medleys and finally a tablespoon of sugar did the trick. It turned out delicious but I could never duplicate it.

                                  That was a very interesting article. My friends who live on the cape are always inundated with wild turkeys. They probably chase the other birds away.
