YESSSSS!! Church cookbooks are the best...especially in the South! My Granny always participated in a church cookbook and had her recipe for the famous "Hot Pineapple Salad" published several times and people always raved about it. I've found them to be great for yummy desserts, breads, and old-school items like okra relish and muscadine jelly. YUMMMMMM.

Justkim!! I love my Kitchenaide stand mixer as well. Mine was a birthday gift years ago and it was pretty funny because the first one got returned because it wasn't big enough. I have a giant bright red professional model and she has certainly gotten her workout over the years. I did invest in lots of attachments for her and have a pasta roller set that I got on clearance for like 75% off that still needs to be experimented with. Maybe I'll try some spinach pasta and report my results back here!

My favorite cookbook is The Joy of Cooking, it expanded my experience and gave me a good set of tools for transforming ingredients into food.

My kitchen used to be the heartbeat of my house. It was an old craftsman house that the previous owner built for his wife. They had 7 children, which explains the kitchen. i had a HUGE open kitchen with a big ceramic sink with a huge window over it where i could see into my big back yard. That kitchen is why i wanted that house so badly.
It was my happy place. i got a reading from Arwen in that kitchen one time, and she saw my Mamere with me. i've always channeled my grandmother but that let me know for sure. Its where i would put on my favorite apron, pull my hair up tight... and get in my mode.. Its where i would crank up my Kitchen Witch Playlist and dance around while trying to focus on the task at hand. Ricky Martin can be distracting. Its where i cranked up my gas stove and made my yearly 20 dozen holiday cookies, (my Mamere's recipe), strawberry jam, Blackberry dumplings, pepper jelly, boiled crawfish, gumbo, jambalaya, etouffe for the masses, fudge and chopped tons of veggies that i grew in the back yard. i've never had a microwave or used a Kitchen Aid appliance. i have burnt up many mixers and blenders though! Its where my family would sit around my big table and drink coffee and chuckle about how much my house looked JUST like my grandmothers. Its where we played with Tarot cards and ate Oyster dressing on Christmas eve. Its where when no one wanted to make Oyster dressing we ate Popeyes chicken because thats all that was open on Christmas Eve. i guess that's what this thread is about, and i totally get it. For now i am enjoying a break but soon, i think i will have my mojo back. ![]() |

I love gingersnaps! Have you ever tried adding a dash (or more) of cayenne pepper to your gingersnap recipe? It is a celebration of taste sensations that explode in your mouth.

![]() I'll be making a vegan pasta sauce tomorrow and having some wheat pasta with it. I like to make enough for several days and besides, I am DYING to try out the new Dutch oven I picked up. Y'all? If you have a Kroger grocery store in your area they have GORGEOUS 6 qt cast iron enameled Dutch ovens right now for $25! I have seen these go for upwards of $80 so this is a great deal. I got a red one ![]()

Y'alllllllllllllllll!
I have been pining away for this book for a while now and came across a dirt-cheap copy of it at Halfprice Books when I was in Atlanta last. It's...ahem...a *delicious* read! http://amzn.to/2yFQqrD ![]()

Eeeekkk!!
Anyone else have new recipe anxiety? I am making something I've never made before and so excited and also nervous to see how it turns out. It's not even a complicated recipe but WEEEE! Spring rolls made with chicken, cilantro, ginger, garlic, and soy sauce. Easy as hell, and I hope they taste as good as they look!

I have both OXO’s Pro line swivel and Y peelers and they are fantastic! I also have OXO’s hand grater and mandolines. Their grips are the best and they all are ergonomic. I am currently recouping from carpal tunnel surgery on both hands, and along with my arthritis, food prep can be painful for me. On those painful days, I use Cuisinart’s mini-mate chopper.

There is an electric peeler...Starfrit Rotato Peeler for like $15.... There are a various asundry of the silicone hand & palm peelers....Walmart, Amazon...in same price range. I have arthur in several fingers of both hands, so holding a hand held peeler hurts my hands. Good luck in hoping you find something amenable to your needs.....xo...clay

We haven't had much success with the pork entrees (tenderloins, chops, etc.). I'm thinking we overcook by cooking too long or having heat too high. We probably need to try a meat thermometer. Anyone had success cooking with pork want to give us tips? |

I can't remember if I posted about it here but we just ended an 18-month-long OVEN SAGA!
We bought our house in February of 2021 and the appliances were not up to par so we decided start replacing them. Jd installed a beverage fridge under the cabinet, similar to this: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/insigni...?skuId=6262624 And then we got this new Kitchenaid Fridge: https://www.homedepot.com/p/KitchenA...0ESS/205905754 We then special ordered this Kitchenaid wall oven and convection microwave combo: https://www.brandsmartusa.com/kitche...QaAvrgEALw_wcB Y'all. It took EIGHTEEN MONTHS to arrive. They kept talking about how the pandemic had created a shortage of the chips used in the oven so there was nothing to do but wait. Well, it finally got here! It's installed and I have to say, it's pretty AMAZING! I have't tried all the features yet but it's nice to have one that cooks evenly and has lots of extras. AND it's beautiful! So, I'm doing a little happy dance about finally being back in my bread making and pumpkin loaf mode. I had the oven that came with the house but it was super old and I didnt trust it so I hated to cook in it. The new Kitchenaid is inspiring me to get out my cookbooks and try some new recipes <3

WOW! That is one gorgeous wall oven unit!!!!
We just bought a newer house (to us) and the stove is old...I HATE it. My wife got me a Chefman Air Fryer combo unit for our 2 year anniversary. BUT SHE burned it up...lol. She cooks EVERYTHING on 450 and lots of EVOO..lol. Burned my elements out!!! I really love using the air fryer, so much healthier for me!! Enjoy that LOOOONNNGGGGGGG awaited oven, Ang!!! Congratulations!!! Quote:
