The Lard is my Shortening II 🥧

I’ll take one of the blackberry tarts.

And also one of the raspberry tarts.

I’ll try to stop at two. Must not get too greedy.

It’s fruit, which is good for you!

 

[lilypadrees]

They’re my favorites.

I believe my Mum’s recipe is from a Betty Crocker cookbook

These tarts look amazing!

I don’t think that I could pick just one, so I think that I would have one every day, for each day of the week!

Here’s how to make fried shallots. We’re going to serve them with asparagus.

First, slice the shallots. I think they look like fingernails.

Fry the fingernails in a plentitude of olive oil

Here’s the finished fried fingernails.(Please Note: This uploaded content is no longer available.)

Save the left over oil for sauteing and/or salad dressing.

I wonder if you can put those fried fingernails on top of a green bean casserole.

Mmm…

That sounds like a most splendid idea!

I know that I would be willing to do that!

Tofu!!​

 

[F_Marturana]

You fooled me. That looked like a plate of roasted potatoes.

I’m not a tofu fan.

 

[Cruciferi]

Season it up!

 

[F_Marturana]

For me it isn’t the taste, it’s the texture.

I did a lot of cooking over the holidays. I didn’t take any pictures.

So here’s some emojis of things I made.

It’s not that bad.

I like those tofu cubes in a Pad Thai especially during Friday when I don’t eat meat.

Lily, my son asked his sister and I one a day when we were talking about Justin: “why do so many women like him anyway?”

“Uh, I don’t know…maybe because he is talented? He can sing, he can dance, he has a sense of humor and seems like a nice guy?? And he is easy on the eyes??” said his sister, mocking her brother.

We love when he is on Jimmy Fallon’s show. Dancing with him. Hilarious.
