CASES

 That damned Amazon!!!  It is totally responsible for my lack of exercise, my agoraphobia, my excess of EVERYTHING!!!  It has nothing to do with my self control of course.

Recently I bought a case, a whole case for heaven's sake, of stove top stuffing.  It seemed like a great idea at the time.  Now, thinking on it, I need to make it, force it, to be a good idea.

I was pondering on this when SHAZZAM!!!!! I had a fantastic idea!!!  You tube!!!  When all else fails, you tube it!!!  So I went to you tube and typed in recipes using boxed stuffing.  And voila!!!  A thousand recipes of all sorts popped up.  Recipes of boxed stuffing mixed with meat, broccoli, macaroni, potatoes, rice, you name it!!!!  Ahhhhh....all sorts of methods to make boxed stuffing not only desirable but necessary!!!  I am exonerated!!!

I found the perfect recipe for dinner tonite.  Meatloaf!!!  You mix a box of stuffing into the hamburger along with onions, eggs, ketchup and bbq sauce.  What could be tastier than that?  And if you are looking for that illusive, never been eaten before, appetizer, just you tube boxed stuffing recipes. 

I made the meatloaf.  It was good, really good but you would never know there was stuffing in it.  I was a wee tad disappointed.  Today is another baked bean day.  I soaked the beans overnight and they are waiting in the kitchen to be turned into a delicious treat.  This time I am going to freeze some before we eat it all.  I want to take some to April next week.  She loves baked beans and I want her opinion.

My head is killing me today.  And my eyes are all hot and burny.  I don't think I am getting enough sleep.  Last night I got three hours and I had one of those completely sleepless nights the night before.

  Why is it us post menopausal women have so much trouble sleeping?  I would take some kind of sleep aid or at least talk to the doc about it but I don't want my poor struggling kidneys to have to deal with anymore chemicals.  Plus I avoid telling the doctor anything.  They are like car mechanics, they will find more stuff wrong with you.  So I just stay buttoned up and tell them I prefer phone appointments.  No eye contact.  Thats the secret to staying out of the hospital and away from testing machines.

Well I had best get moving.  Beans are a long all day process which of course I love.  I really don't want this blog to turn into one of those food blogs you see. I am just a throw it together unsophisticated cook who doesn't deserve a pretty, organized with index, food blog where you have to read through a whole bunch of ...useless to us, important to the author, information before getting to the actual recipe.  I wonder if they are aware that we out here, all make fun of them or at the least get sarcastic and scathy about it.  I would rather someone who has happened across my blog just skip it.  I won't be putting a proper recipe in my blog.  Just methods.  hahahaha!!!

Okay, enough already.  Gotta bounce.  Have a great day people and open a can of Bush's beans if you want beans.  It's a whole lot easier, faster and tastes just as good.  Overnite plus six hours cooking time versus two minutes of can opening and microwaving...Bush's does have its merits!!!!TTYL

'I come from a food family, so you would think I would be great at making baked beans or something, but I'm not.'  Kristian BUSH!

Come on, with a name like that go to Dollarama and get your self a Betty Crocker can opener and a can of beans.  Do yourself a favour!!!
