Hi Everyone,
On my end Thanksgiving plans are still up in the air. LOL I
do know Melissa's family is staying home and she is fixing a Thanksgiving feast
for them. Now for a little chuckle she told me about what she told her husband
(Travis) she told him she was going shopping for a ham and all the rest that
they like for Thanksgiving. Melissa hates turkey so she told Travis (because he
loves turkey) that if he wanted her to fix a turkey. He would have to go to the
store and pick out a turkey (and here's the chuckle) he needed to pick one out
that came with instructions. LOLOL.
I figure she will be calling her dad for his stuffing recipe
(he keep all recipes in his head). Proof of this is that for years the girls
wanted to know his cheese dip recipe. He always just smiled and acted like he
didn't hear them. (Frank acts like this a lot.) LOL Anyway, Mishell made a
special trip over to our house after work this week to get his cheese dip
recipe. This came about because our granddaughter Hailey who is a sophomore in
high school put her foot down and said.
"Mom your cheese dip is NOT as good as grandpa's and I
want grandpa's cheese dip tonight. Okay are you all ready for this? Well kept
secret for years as I didn't even know. He doesn't like people in the kitchen
when he cooks.
It's one can of Campbells Fiesta Cheese Soup, one can of
Campbell's Cheddar Cheese Soup and Velveeta boxed cheese. Melt and serve. You
can add hamburger if you want nachos.
LOLOLOLOLOL
All these years this was the well kept secret and it took a
granddaughter's wish to get it out of him.
Mishell texted later and wanted to know if you add milk. He
said NO it will make it too thin. BUT you can add milk after it's been out and
thickened a while so it won't make it so thick!
LOLOLOLOL
So to answer my own question my weekend plans are to try to
cross stitch. I KNOW I will read and to try to worm a recipe or two out of
Frank and I think if Melissa asks for his stuffing recipe because Chase loves
it I might be able to pull this off. LOL
Hugs,
Pam
