A whole lotta cookin’ goin’ on. 

Birfday party yesterday for daughter and her boyfriend. Started with a ‘Sharkeatery’ platter. Plus bruschetta with diced tomato, parm, garlic, garden basil, olive oil and Balsamic vinegar. Then a pan of lasagna, grilled chicken Alfredo, salad, vino. Lotsa cheese and garlic and food and fun. 

 

Finished with tiramisu. Dang.

                 Got my inner June Cleaver on this morning and donned my apron. Still filling the larder with Squirrel. Up to 27 since the 23rd of May when it opened. One thing I have not done in years was pressure can them. They are great this way and can be used in a variety or applications.  I like them straight out of the jar sometimes and made in a sandwich spread like you would do chicken or tuna. In pint jars. One squirrel fits in nicely but I miscounted and had and extra so some creative stuffing was done in a couple jars. I know pre browning in some goose fat was the  tedious part.      Then hot broth was ladled into the filled jars of meat. A half teaspoon of kosher salt and a few pepper flakes. On went the flat and ring and into the pressure cooker after getting hot. On went the top and weight (10lb pressure). As it began to jiggle I set the timer for 65 minutes as these were bone in pieces. Timer off and when pressure went down opened it up for ten more minutes before removing jars. They had began pinging (sealing) even before removing the still bubbling jars.

    I know what is for lunch tomorrow if I can stay out of them the rest of the day.

Speaking of June Cleaver, I won't wear pearls, but I will make a casserole from that era tonight. Hot dog, potato, and sauerkraut. I can almost hear Perry Como and the Kraft cheese and Campbell soup commercials.

               Oh man I forgot about the pearls. I did manage to clean up my mess and washed and dried the dishes before Ward (Pat) shows up after work. Watered the garden and have to get to the flowers next!  Hey Randy don't forget to drink your milk!
