Quilt in a Day Forums

Good afternoon from warm, sunny, SW. Pa....
AND where is everyone????I've been busy and just getting here and it's so lonely!

Mary, are you out driving that tractor and forgot about us? How lucky for the Scottish Beast to have that much property to claim as his own...

Jana,hope Michael is feeling better and your duties as nurse are over...And I am very honored that you picked my b'day for your wedding...Hope you have as many anniversaries as I have/had birthdays...

Becca, Today is the day, isn't it? I can feel the vibrations the whole way up here....Enjoy every moment.....

Today is relish making day at our house...We use an old, old grinder that you have to manually turn and after awhile, the shoulder/arm gets tired...But, being the nice person that he is, Jim volunteered and did all the grinding....It's on cooking now and the house smells like vinegar, onions, cinnamon and I just love it....It is a great way to use up all the little green tomatoes and tastes so good on meat loaf...Even tastes good on liver, lol....

As far as our dinner, I'm thinking back to the outside grill...Haven't had burgers this week so that and potato salad should taste pretty good....

So what aromas do you have going on in your kitchen????

Happy eating...............

Good morning,

I have one of those grinders, my kids call it one of my antiques! LOL I use it when I make my mom's carrot pudding recipe at christmas. In the old days when, I would grind up the lard for those puddings. Changed the recipe now, not quite the same.

Dinner tonight is my italian sausage tortellini soup, similar to a minestrone. Toasty bread of some sort as well.

Enjoy,
Jana

Your relish smells so good! One of the guys I used to work with would bring me some spicy--everything but the kitchen sink relish that I just loved... green tomatoes, onions, cabbage, carrots, peppers... YUM!!! He used what he had, and it was always different and always awesome good!

I really like liver and onions. I haven't craved it since I got my anemia taken care of (hysterectomy). I used to want it every day, and I guess I needed it because my hemoglobin was at 6 or below. I don't get it very often now. I do bring home chicken livers from the chicken place when I go see my DD. DH likes the gizzards. I call them lizards and givers. However, with the two of us we don't mix them. His are yucky to me, and mine are yucky to him.

My DD brought me a grinder she got at an auction. It has all kinds of discs with it.

Jana--your soup sounds good. I like tortellini. I had soup last night; DH had steak. I think he will get the end of the steak tonight, and I might do soup again with a pile of tomatoes on the side.

Cheers!

Good Afternoon.Stuffed here as we went out with neighbors.Come back to her House for homemade ice cream.Then she brings out 3 kinds of homemade chocolate candy she made.DH was in hog Heaven.
