Hmm, either cooking chicken fajitas tonight or just ordering food.

I know it's eating not cooking but ....a meagre but delicious taste of the best chopped liver I ever tried this morning.
Waiting for the yogurt cake to finish baking. I was left out of the Easter dinner conversation so I wasn't really prepared. After asking today it was decided nobody did anything about a dessert. I had everything on hand for the yogurt cake and I figure it's a very nice and lightly sweet cake that is perfect with coffee so it will a treat.
I made mead as is tradition and it turned out super yummy this year!
That looks great!
..Score!
I decided to finally open a jar of jelly I have been avoiding as it lost the label in our epic 3 months of moving and resulting storage. I was sure it wouldn't be good after letting it set for a couple of years but figured I should at least get it out of the pantry.
OMG !
It was definitely still good and it's the last known existing jar that I canned of Spiced Merlot Grape jelly.
A few years ago, we had an acquaintance whose merlot grapes were too sweet (wtf?) to be able to use for wine that year. I cooked down almost 2.5 bushels of grapes and froze the juice left after canning as much jelly as I had jars for. One batch, I put in cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger and it turned out amazing.
My 18 yo nephew made off with two of the jars and reports from his sisters were that 1)he didn't share and 2)he sat and ate each jar with a spoon sans bread in one sitting each. I consider that a pretty good review.
I canned like crazy before we moved cross-country since most of my fruits and juices were in the freezer which had to be emptied, of course. I had enough merlot grape juice left to make about 12 pints of jelly. I've given some as gifts and we had eaten all that was left...or so I thought!
This calls for some homemade biscuits next weekend! My mouth is so happy!
..
Home made jellies make the best gifts, love stories like this
I cant take credit for cooking, just scarfingHarry you put us all to shame with all that energy.
The week kind of sucked so I settled for comfort food for dinner. Potato chips and sweet tea.
I'll get back in the swing of things tomorrow.
..I've been struggling to eat lately and this is one of the few things that agrees with me. I added dried cranberries and whole almonds plus loads of cinnamon. Store bought granola cannot compare to warm from the oven.
It looks great! hard to make? sorry you r feeling yuck.
The knowing what's in it is a huge advantsge; that said j always go a little TOO stingy over the sweet aspect and while I like it I think it's a little 'cardbordy' for others. 'Luckily' I cannot eat it now and G prefers muesli anyway most days he's going for that sort of breakfast.
Yours looks delicious
