What´s Cooking ?

I looked at some recipe for rainbow jello, forgetting what I was really looking for. Just wanted mom to eat some fruit, and during winter, I just don't know how to shop for fruit, it seems. So I took some canned fruit, and added it to jello. But one package of jello stated I couldn't use pineapple in jello, because it wouldn't set? Maybe the pineapple would melt? Oh well, jello is really something I keep in the pantry, for when we're sick anyway, so I've found a different use for it.

Once I started to get better I got ups and downs as My mind tried to go back to what it was used to doing. Set backs you might say. But I just kept dragging myself back on track and life got a lot better.

I'm doing things again that I had set aside. One of those things was making sauerkraut. Unprocessed sauerkraut is so good. Canned is so mushy and overcooked. It even retains some colour.

So I'm having that with sausages for lunch. Making lentil soup with sausage also.

I have to go back to the store today as it seems there is always something I need. My fault really, I get talking and forget what I wanted. Sometimes I just decide to make something I don't have the ingredients for.

Cooking is one thing I enjoy now that I have an interest again.

I didn't get time to make the perogies yet. I've had company and today I had to go shopping. Tomorrow I have to remove the ridge the grader left in my driveway and clean the chimney and then go to the library.

That leaves Sunday or Monday. Monday night I'm picking up my friend from Ontario if she can get to the air port. They are having terrible weather with road closures. I meet the bus at midnight.

Tuesday we will have roast Lamb and veggies with Yorkshire pudding. and choice of Apple or raspberry pie with whipped cream. A nice four year old Rosè from my cellar and chocolate for later if I remember to buy it. The wine is sour cherry which doesn't taste like cherry but is very nice. Wednesday I will make Irish stew for lunch and if I'm not too tired stuffed Cornish hens for supper.

As Red Green said, if they don't find you hansom let them find you handy. Actually this is just a visit for a few days with someone I have not seen for years. A chance to show off a bit. I might even get time to make some real bagels. Might not too. I opened a bottle of 2005 Rhubarb wine. I can only have one glass because of medication and that is how it should be. It went well with Lasagna. Now I will make tea and do the dishes and have a brownie with my movie. Maybe even popcorn.

Such a change from my anxious days when I didn't want to see anyone or do anything. I never want to go back to them.

Ps. Another friend has gone vegetarian so if she comes to visit I guess she can cook, I don't know how to balance vegetarian.

I believe it is all related. From a bad combination of being overweight and water retention to the things you buy. Pills for water retention and high blood pressure to three different sizes of cloths. Some a person will never get into again. The worst though is probably the toll on self esteem.

The fact is that everyone I know of that has been forced to stop salt loses the craving after a while and then finds it undesirable. They say they never knew what food really tasted like. Salt only makes you think it brings out the flavour, in truth what you end up looking for is that salt taste. No salt in coffee or wine and they are fine, so why does it have to be in everything else. There are food sources of Iodine we no longer need salt to get it.

People are such sheep, following what everyone else is doing and doing what they are told.

Who does not use some processed food. The daily intake of salt from that is enough. Often far more than enough.

There is one other thing no one talks about. Contaminants. Just how clean is your salt? Sea salt? Everyone knows the seas are full of waste. Inland deposits of salt that are millions of years old are probably the safest.

Money is the root of all sales and salt sells itself. The ideal product, no advertising needed. More salt addicts than cocaine or alcohol and it is legal.

Enough whining from me. People have the right to kill themselves if they want to.

Davit, I saw a programme stating that salt is marketed very aggressively, and It makes sense from the processed foods perspectives, since they would wish to sell more. I believe that obesity is big business.

I quit using salt more than forty years ago. There is more than enough in processed food. There is enough sodium in celery for a persons need. Salt gives a person a craving for more salt which leads to overeating to satisfy the craving.

I'm making a chicken casserole for supper.

Davit, I'll have to buy the paper holders, but don't have those mouldings. Today I made stuffed peppers, but the meat stuffing was too salty. If I can buy some potatoes, maybe I can make a shepperd's pie with the salty stuffing, and keep the peppers separate? I only have 2 potatoes, and about 2 1/2 cups of meat, but it's nippy outside, so it will have to wait. I feel really tired, as though my legs are drained. Maybe I've had a flu without the symptoms that are "normal" for the flu? I was in a doc's office on Monday to review my carpal tunnel syndrome issues. I was disappointed to have to withdraw from a course, but I just don't have the time, and have lost focus of other things. There's no point spreading myself too thing. I'm not part of the "rat race" anymore, and never wished to be. It's trash day and I'm going to collect some stuff...

Whoa. Hugs, the paper holders go in muffin tins instead of greasing them.

You should make the cup cakes. sounds good.

I'm definitely making pie now since I have a crew coming over tomorrow to cut trees down for my saw mill. Need to treat my helpers right.

I was going to make cupcakes, instead of a cake, but don't have the cupcake mold. If I bought those paper holders, I think the holder wouldn't support the contents? I did make jello with peach slices today. I just feel like I have some flu, with a lot of fatigue, but no cough, fever. Maybe it's just the the deep cold. I really want to go out and shop, though. I could order, but the food is ridiculously expensive. I could use the fresh air, too.

I did make the potato leek soup. Today it was slow cooker beans in tomato sauce and other stuff. Well spiced.

Thinking about making some apple pies. I will make Raspberry when My friend gets here. So I will freeze some shells too.

Nystatin is killing off the Candida so I have more energy.

I'm going to try a different flour for my pie crust. (well I do have someone I want to impress)
