            Lets see if this will help,

             Wings! 

Cajun Sauce Piquant. 

 Deer loin juicy and tender. 

 So you all don't forget how much we like our duck I will add that too. Dirty rice and fried cabbage for sides. 

   We have been eating well as always @rps.

As our dog Max aged he lost a lot of weight and we had to get more and more creative feeding him. Here’s something I cooked up for him a couple weeks ago.

½ can Purina One
½ packet dry dog food
1 slice deli ham, chopped
½ cup 4% cottage cheese 
1 slice Velveeta cheese, torn into ½ inch pieces
75 mg Prednisolone
Whipped topping to taste

 

 

 

The last year we had Maya, a rescue mutt the daughters adopted just before they left for college, I roasted a chicken per week. The carcass and the offal went into the stock pot. The stock was what we used on her kibble with small bits of the meat and organs. Toward the end Nancy would get on the floor and feed it to her by hand.

Wow, that's devotion! Good on you.

We tried a lot of stuff. Scrambled eggs, rotisserie chicken, ground chicken, ground turkey, bologna, cheese, deli meat. Every protein we made had some left over for both, but Max got the big pieces.

The humans have been eating well here, but with a much greater emphasis on healthier food and smaller portions. It's been both challenging and interesting trying to find the things that work, or reworking things we love to reduce calories and carbs. More fish, shellfish and chicken, turkey, lean pork and beef. We're having a banner year in the herb garden, and we've used more and more herbs in lieu of sauces, etc. lately. More low-starch veggies too. Doing stir fries a lot: lighten up the sauce and leave out the rice.

Pan fried chicken with a vinegar, ketchup, pan dripping & some olives in the sauce. Jacque Pepin inspired, was good with a simple salad and the last of our homegrown tomatoes.

Well I haven't been on this page for a while just haven had anything exciting enough to post.  But there are some dang tasty looking items.  I did have some dang good BBQ at the original Arthur Bryant's or at least that is what I was told.  Down town grumpy old black fellers yelling at ya, but man o man the triple decker sammich was about as good a Sammich as I have ever eaten.  Unfortunately i think that pig and maybe the turkey too had died of some sort of sleeping sickness because it was sure hard to keep my open the rest of the day.

I will however be smoking as many leg quarters as many leg quarters for a fundraiser at church then the next weekend doing it for my family members as we gather to inter some ashes. Maybe just maybe I can remember to get a pic or two.

Ham, artichoke, and olive.

My wife is away at Girl Scout camp, so I’m cooking simple today. Pot Roast is on the stove so I guess I’m done cooking today.
