One question wednesday
I'm in! Blogger was weird yesterday, i couln't get in while trying to log in, of course i thought it was my senile. Luckily after i found my password this morning, it wasn't me this time! Ha! So here i am. I'm supposed to answer a question, asked by on, or anyone, on wednesday. The only question i have is one that i got a week, or twoago... And now i don't know where to find it.. That one is on me. I am senile :((
Gotta get that figured out real quick... K, i got it ... Thank god for text messaging :))
Who taught you how to cook,
..... I more or less taught myself to cook. There were three kids, me brother, my sis, and me, in that birth order.. Our mom was gone a lot and we were alone to fendvfor ourselves from a young age. It seems there was food in the house much of the time, but it was minimal, and not easy for kids to just grab and eat. We had to get creative .. Or starve.
So it really was 'do or die' i was the youngest they were teenagers, schedules were different. We did what we could for or with each other. I just remember cooking a lot more often. I also remember corn flakes with water yum!
What's the most wonderful creation you do well,
These days, over the passed three years or so i barely cook at all anymore.. Unless hubby or daughter is sick. They have become the master chefs around here as my pain level worsens. But before that... I loved cooking. It lived in me, i have never used a cook book in my life! The only recipe i ever need is for baking, the dessert gene skipped me. For the most part, i simply do not bake.
I think my family fave has to be, My chili- verde . That is what is requested the most, even when someone visits.
Hubby n daughter think myntacos are the best too. No idea why or how they are different, but they love em.
As "the cook" i can't pick the best" i just know that everyone likes whatever i cook.
I,m not bragging.. Especially since i don't even cook really. But i do eat what i cook too, and it really is good food.
What was your worst cooking disaster,
Hmmmmm.... MY KITCHEN !!! BAH !
This would have to be the time i forgot about my boiling macaroni - for mac- n - cheese, and i was packing to move. I forgot about it. By the timebi remembered... ALL the water had boiled away andvthe macarini was standing on end!
Yup.. Like little soldiers with black boots! :))
Ok.. I gotta roll on .. Kid has dantal follow uo, and must renew her drivers licence that expiredbon her birthday.. Oops 3/9, bad mom... No, busy mom.
If i wasbrich they would say i had ' exhaustion' but i'm only over- tired i guess.
At least until i collapse. That was comin yesterday i think, but i had to tell my patients.. What arebyall gonna do when somethin happens to ME? I need to rest too. Really, i was , well, exhausted.
Time to get back to it..
Happy humpday

I have come to the conclusion that i will never post on my i pad again! What a mess. Sorry.
I can't post for poop on from my Iphone either Soul so don't feel like the Lone Ranger, I am too used to a full-size keyboard and I have too much to say, sound familiar?! :-) I think you did a great job here in answering my question(s)!
Sometime write more about your role among your siblings, how you ended up being the caretaker/cook. I will write some on that soon too! It's cool that you grew up to love cooking rather than detest it. My ex once made Kraft mac n' cheese with water instead of milk... didn't follow instructions... YUCK!
Chile verde huh? Mmmmm! I could go for some of that, when you making it? Give me time to get there, it's only like what, a five hour drive? :-)
Funny, I hate to cook, but I love to bake, got that from my Mom, now if we were neighbors we could turn out some awesome meals together... and the guys could do the dishes!
You can burn macaraoni... I can relate... I once burned up soup, not an easy thing to do! :-)
Love you much, thanks for playing! Go read my answers, they're up!
Love it joz',
I really don't remember or know how i fell into the role of the "caretaker/ protector" the doer etc. i just "am, and always havebeen. I fell into the role of the " man of the family, even as the youngest, and thebpaby.. And the baby girl. I don't know , or understand, but i still seem to fall into that ' role' even no
W. even as i physically can't,or "shouldn
L't do too much, i still tent to overdo too much... Physically and mentally. And still fall into the role of "the protector, i would be the first to go to jail for anyone, without a thout, before anyone else.
Anyhow.. I am tired, nd my mind is tired too. Gonna go check out your questions!
Hugs soul sis!!!!
Yes Soul Sis, I've noticed that no matter how crappy you feel, how much pain you are in, and how tired you are, you still end up taking care of your family when they need you. You and I are caretakers by nature, I hope sometimes you get to be the one being babied and cared for too! It's ok to set limits and say that this is all physically you can do today. I can do far less than I could ten years ago, without hurting like heck for the next three days. It frustrates me but I have learned to honor those limitations, rather than pay the price for pushing myself too far.We are important too!
I learned to cook by watching both Grandmothers, my Dad (cooked in the Air Force for 23 years) and my Mom. I've added a few things here and there myself. I love good country cookin'.
you should tell me bout those tacos... whats in em- how do you make em?
