It's been a peopley and cooky type of a few days. Both which I really enjoy. I just finished making a cheese burger impossible pie. It is so easy and so delish!!! Looks great too I must say. Thank you bisquick!
On Saturday night we had one of Monte's friends over for dinner. He is the drummer in his band. His girlfriend was working and couldn't make it. So what do you make for someone you don't know, other than he isn't vegetarian, after all he is a native Port Albernian. Hahaha!!!
I played it safe and made a super saucy cheesy Mac and cheese. I also made coleslaw Paula Deen style and ribs, and garlic bread...sort of. A long time ago my cousin Heather made this delicious bread. You take a loaf of garlic bread, slather a layer of mayo on it, cover it with parmesan and bake it in a really hot oven til the edges are very browned and crunchy and the top is browned. I finished the dinner with an apple crisp and ice cream. Yummmy! Boy did he eat...lots!!! He also took leftovers home with him.
He did something interesting...for a boy anyway. At some point he headed to the loo. I was in the living room manning the music, Monte was still at the table.
He was gone quite a while but I didn't really pay any attention. Later, after he was gone I noticed a couple of things that didn't make sense. One, the guest room door wasn't closed tight. And I know I closed it. It's kind of messy in there and I didn't want him seeing it so I shut the door. When I finished in the loo I noticed that the turlett paper was new and on the roll. I never put the paper on the roll. It is always on the floor where it's easy to get at. Plus I remember that the floor roll was almost gone. I had forgotten to replace the paper.
He must have noticed no paper, needed paper, and instead of coming to me with his dilemma he solved his own problem. He went hunting, into the bedroom, the Costco sized package of paper is at the end of the bed and he took care of business on his own. This may not seem so momentous to you folks, but I am not used to boys just taking matters into their own hands, probably out of respect for my boundaries, which I do appreciate. But Colton's action impressed me for some reason!
Monte and I decided to leave the freezer until tomorrow, Wednesday. Thursday is garbage day and the weather, thanks to the Pineapple Express has decided to warm up, just what rotting maggoty meat does NOT need. So I did get quite a lot of it done, the bulk of it will wait until tomorrow, less time to get smelly.
I am just remembering when I was about 16 we had been on a family trip. When we got back somehow our huge freezer, which happened to be full of the usual household freezer stuff plus a whole cut up, wrapped and frozen bear, had unplugged. When we opened the freezer it was half full of vile, really really vile freezer juice and very very rotten bear meat, never mind all the other stuff. OMG!!!! I cleaned it out as I think I was the only family member that could stomach the smell. I have always used the mind over matter mantra when it comes to rotten fridges or freezers. As a result I have done a few for friends over time as well. It's been a minute though. I think the last one was my friend Anne's many years ago.
This week it's Ange who is coming to dinner, on Thursday. She is coming over to download some stuff off Disney and Netflix. Plus she is bringing her tax stuff over for Monte to help with. I shall decide what to make tomorrow. I will probably write about it. I love to write about my food as you probably already noticed! Til then, stay safe and TTYL
