My blog had been full of political ponderings recently, so I thought today we might take a break and go for a lighter discussion. I am not an excellent cook but I do enjoy excellent food. When I was in college I had a friend who gave me a notebook filled with mimeographed copies of the recipes from the newly released Julia Child cooking show
Your photo of the bowl of beef stew gave me instant flashback to the beef stew my mother made. So good! For some reason she never made biscuits although she did crack open those cans on occasion. I guess biscuits were not a Milwaukee thing. We always had buttered bread with stew. These days I do my best to cook yummy meals quickly which is why I have acquired an air fryer lid for my Instant Pot!
What a great start to the day ! Memories flooding back and forth of my childhood days and the delicious meals mama cooked on Sunday that we kept eating from during the week. It was as much the gathering together of family as it was the food. One fed off the other. Thanks Jeanne. Yes, those biscuits you cracked open on the edge of the counter and watched them rise in the oven …Yummy tummy! ❤️
I can attest that the lunch stew was wonderful! And the biscuits hot out of the oven so delicious with Irish Butter and Blackberry Jam. Yum. And I fondly remember the bag of tin foil wrapped country ham biscuits your mother would always pack for our journey home. Yum!
Lunch with Julia and James...
