It Could Happen To Anyone

Like I said,

it could happen to you too!

My youngest daughter has started looking up recipes on the internet

and cooking them for our evening dinner.

The first dish she came up with was

Quiche.

Her recipe called for bacon,

onions,

and parmesan cheese.

I ate most of it because it was so good

and I am afraid I might be loosing weight during this pandemic.

Her next haute cuisine which tickled my taste buds was

French Onion Soup.

The only secret ingredient in this recipe is dry white wine.

I wanted the whole bottle poured into the soup but of course I was voted down.

So then I thought I would throw my cooking skills into the mix.

Since I haven't had it in such a long time I thought I would make

Meatloaf.

A tradition at my household while growing up.

My daughter found a simple recipe for me,

because she ate my cooking growing up,

and I went at it.

I followed the recipe but made just one alteration.

It called for one and one half pounds of hamburger.

What am I going to do with a half pound?

So I put two pounds in.

I already had a 5 by 9 inch bread pan so I mixed all the ingredients together

and put it in my pan.

Set my oven at 350 degrees

and waited one hour.

You know why the recipe only called for a pound and a half?

Because when hamburger is cooking it makes grease!

Now,

right now,

I have to go

and clean the oven.

And,

 

“An idealist is one who, on noticing that a rose smells better than a cabbage, concludes that it makes a better soup.”
- H.L. Mencken -

 

 That is my story and I am sticking to it!
