I cooked

Jill, I finally got everything in place and made the Salmon stuffed shells
with dill sauce yesterday.

I guess I don't cook much anymore.  Family would pause  in the kitchen and
ask me what I was doing, rather than what I was cooking or what's for
dinner.

I think the youngest grandson was surprised to see me with measuring cups
and spoons and a cutting board.

They were great, and a hit with the whole family.

I particularly liked the lemon dill sauce.

you have her confused with me, Lee, who only cooks when DH is ill or needs
to be, *evil grin*

Now if you'd only start cooking for your family like that but I guess
the cats come first.

You ROCK Jo.  I'm so glad that Jill's recipe was a hit with your family.

I made breakfast last Sunday.  Kids came crawling out of the wood work to
find out what those heavenly odors were.  I started with just me in the
kitchen and next thing I know, Mike is setting the table, Jim has
volunteered to take over cooking the bacon, and Rob is rummaging through the
fridge for the syrup, butter, and jellies.  You'd think I hadn't made
pancakes, scrambled eggs and bacon in years, instead of months.  As if I
hadn't made Belgium waffles the previous Sunday.

LOL  My mother comes out when I'm baking bacon, sniffing the air like a
blood hound :)  We're both fiends for bacon.  I introduced her to the "put
it on a slotted broiler-pan and bake it about 20 minutes at 375F" method
when I was here in December.  The bacon doesn't curl up; you turn it over
with tongs halfway through the cooking time.  Add or subtract a few minutes
depending on your crispiness preference.  Clean-up is a breeze if you line
the broiler pan with foil (although bacon grease is soooo tasty for things
like cornbread and home-fries).

My brother expressed concerns she might put it in the oven and forget about
it.  Gee, like I haven't done that!  One day a few years back I got busy
reading newsgroups and let the water boil away on what *should* have been
soft boiled eggs for breakfast.  They "eggsploded"!  (It didn't do the pan a
heck of a lot of good, either!)  I've introduced her to pre-cooked bacon.
It's not fantastic but it's better than no bacon at all :)

There is a thick slice pre cooked bacon that isn't bad at all.

Especially great if you want bacon on a turkey sandwich or a hamburger.

Bacon is kind of a mood barometer around here.  If I'm up first (I usually
am) and if I'm feeling pretty good I'll cook bacon.  I usually won't go
further with making breakfast as everyone does their own thing when they
want.  But a half pound of bacon cooked always disappears by noon.

Microwaves are almost as great for reheating bacon and sausage as they are
for reheating coffee.

Hormel makes an excellent microwave bacon  and it is cheap also.  45 seconds
nice and crispy with no microwave taste

Oddly enough, I'm finding Oscar Mayer pre-cooked bacon is cheaper than
Hormel or even the store brand (at least it is here in the Carolina
Lowcountry... not so back home).  I was floored to find it (consistently)
costing a little over a dollar less than the others.  I've got her freezer
stocked with a couple of packs of it; heat & serve sausage links, too.
