Very wise!!!!
It wasn't until I was a teenager that I found any interest in cooking, probably because dinner in my house was always boring...........but once I started spending my summers with my grandmother, I had a whole new world openned for me!!!
My 5yo loves to "cook" dinner with me and is very good at reading recipes for me. It's a great learning experience for her because she is practicing her reading and learning fractions!!! And she can brag that she "cooked" dinner.
* The alternative to cream soup is whole cream and sliced button mushrooms, and a teaspoon of tapioca starch or arrowroot as a thickener. Using either of the thickeners are best for freezing foods with gravy or creamed soups, as they will not separate as will flour when thawing.
How about cornstarch? I don't think I've every frozen anything in a gravy or cream soup and I tend to use flour roux to thicken most things.
That's quite alright - but I know who I can blame you for the bill I rang up at the supermarket shortly after posting!!!
Don't bother posting pictures of the hildabeast. Heinlein died in the '80s, he never saw her.
Hmmmm... (twisting mustache) interesting... thanks...
Things that count! Read Each One Carefully and Think About It a Second or Two
1. No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry.
2. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
3. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart
4. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them.
5. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
6. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.
7. Don't waste your time on a man/woman, who isn't willing to waste their time on you.
8. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.
9. Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.
10. There's always going to be people that hurt you so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful about who you trust next time around.
11. Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you.
12. Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.
