cooking madness
Nov. 17th, 2012 05:28 pmUsed up the rest of my first jack-o-lantern in a roasted pumpkin soup. It confirmed the adage "everything is better with bacon". Mmmmm...
Good thing I had the soup, because my ham pizza was devoured by the girl. I still have some dough, and am debating making another pizza instead of bread.
While grocery shopping today, I scored a nice roast on sale, so it's in the oven now. I also had pork hocks and leeks on my list - I sure hope I can once again find the recipe that will turn them into something yummy.
I'm almost done peeling the 10 lb of beets Mom dropped off in hopes of beet pickles. I'll drop them off tomorrow with the squirrel traps she loaned me a couple of weeks (long story involving a hallucinating friend, unusually active cat, and parents who got all fussed about squirrels in my basement, when the imaginary squirrels were actually at my friend's).
Still to go: horseradish, sunchoke soup, pumpkin and barley risotto, and another batch of chicken and pumpkin stew.
