SORRY...THIS IS A BIT OF A FOODIE POST...SKIP IF NOT INTERESTED

 One day I mentioned to Ange that as I was gazing out my window I noticed that when a crow would land on the street light, it would come on.  But if a seagull or pigeon landed on it, it didn't come on.  Next, upon studying it, puzzling away, I finally realized there was a solar battery atop that the birds were actually landing on.  And the crow being black,  the light reacted accordingly!

I was pretty amazed by this.  So when Ange came upstairs I started to tell her about this amazing thing.  And what did Ange say? Well I didn't get finished.  She interrupted me mid sentence to finish saying the findings I had found and was trying to impart to her.

After she went back downstairs it just struck me funny that we both share the same view out our respective windows and we are so unbusy we had watched stupid birds land on street lights and took note of the ensuing consequences.  Seriously!!!  Who doesn't have a life?  We don't have a life!!!! hahahaha!!!!

Alright, now for the food part.  I was perusing, in my head, all the food I have.  I have freezers full of meat.  I have a large cupboard with shelves full of dry goods.  I have a huge cabinet in my kitchen full of canned goods. I have a wall, floor to ceiling, of open shelves full of everything else.  I have a messy corner in my dining room with containers of root vegetables and two boxes of bottles of half drunk booze, and two rubber maids, big ones, full of the stuff I didn't use for xmas cooking and another pretty full of cooking stuff from what I brought back from April's.  So I walked through all that, in my head, and then remembered that elsewhere in the dining room there is an amazon box of 12 boxes of stove top stuffing.  TWELVE.  I mean they were only 72 cents each and when I make meatloaf I use them in that.  But 12....sigh.

The other day I bought a kindle book of Muffin Tin recipes.  I like muffin tin snacks.  There are so many low carb, diabetic friendly snacks you can make with a muffin tin. And when my brain finally put two and three together!  meatloaf mixture and stovetop stuffing as stuffing, not just a mix in, you can make a layered thingy!!!!

So today is the day!  I am going to make the meatloaf mixture, and then the stuffing, and then the muffin.  First a layer of meat, then a layer of stuffing, topped with another layer of meat and topped with my secret meatloaf glaze.  Yes!!!!  I melted the meat overnight and I even know where the box of stuffing is....(thats a miracle, I never know where crap is in this house)(shovel list).  I am going to take pics as I go and I shall post them here, today!  I am not posting this until I have loaded the pics onto my laptop here and include them.

Well I did it.  I made them.  They didn't turn out quite the way I had pictured but they were delicious!  I am ready to figure out another muffin thingy.

Well I am getting the house ready for the grandies and Kevin and Tandy.  This is so exciting.  Monte's old room is ready to do a deep clean, deSmooch and build a bed that is coming on Friday from the Brick.  I love building rooms!

So below are the pics, such as they are.  I would have done a lot more today but my blasted back just won't let me.  So annoying.  Anyhoo I shall be back!  TTYL
