    Bring some food. Bring some drinks or soda. Bring your Halloween costume photos or what you're thinking about doing differently this year for the Holidays. Let's just talk.

    I have missed our times together. You are good people.

    Guess what? Today, before we left home, I turned on the TV and there she was, Julia and Master Chef from India. The same as the book I posted a photo of and she was crushing up spice after spice and roasting seeds in the skillet and washing her basmati rice 5 X's and then allowing it to soak for 30 minutes. Then she gently drained the water, being sure not to break her rice. Then she sauteed it in some hot oil, shallots, curry leaves and 2 cups freshly chopped parsley, gently stirred it added 1 2/3 cups chicken stock, covered it tightly and baked it. She said to be very careful when fluffing it up, so it would not break the rice. Now I understand why my basmati rice was sticky and gooey! Ha! 1 cup dry rice to 1 1/4 cups liquid.

      I was brought up on long grain rice, Uncle Ben's and it turns out very well. After trying rice Jasmine and Basmati, I really liked it but when I tried to make it it was not the correct way. Check out MPT.org PBS cooking Julia and Master Chefs play date November 14th @ 3PM. I know they have web site and toll free number. Maybe you can see if you can watch the same episode on your computer.

      Once you see someone do it, it's pretty easy to give it a go.

      As far as pastry goes, that is the reason I attended culinary school for Pastry Arts. I would do it again had I the funding.

      I think Alton Brown's show is one of the most worthwhile food shows. He makes everything interesting and easy to recall.

      I have one of his cook books and made the cardboard box smoker to smoke salmon. I have fun with his style of cooking. I watched one last night and was going to make his yorkshire pudding using sausage grease for breakfast and my blender broke. I went to Hardee's and got a biscuit on the way to get feed.

      Buckey said Hi. He is getting bigger but ran from the camera today. lol

    He came up to Jr (Hubby) this morning and let him pet him and play with him. His colors are still there so he will forever be that color.

    His mom is a duroc and she is red like our ruby and his dad was a yorkshire or a pink pig of some kind. He has a big red spot on his other side on his neck too. He is easy to spot in the 9 babies we have right now. He is the leader of the group. He loves to come to the back door for scrapes. Hubby is fixing the fence tommorrow so they dont get out.
