Yum, that just inspired me to make zucchini with onion and garlic to go with my beef tonight -- and if I am game, liver. I know the liver goes with onion, this sounds like more taste to cover it up

Could be reporting back with tales of revoltingness.

had a cooking fail this morning:

cooking bacon and veggies. usually, i crack an egg or two into the bacon pan when it's done and i cook the eggs with the bacon fat. this time, i decided to scramble my eggs. i took the bacon out of the pan and dumped the eggs in........................

totally underestimated how much bacon fat was in there. the eggs were swimming and drowning in the bacon grease. and they came out terrible. yuck. had to dump em and re-do it :C then they came out fine

Any primal baked good has been a total fail for me! I do not have the baking gene (I hate measuring). Good thing I'm not a dessert fan, but when I try to bring something baked to family gatherings, it bombs. I'll stick to cooking

not measuring sounds like not following the recipe, not missing a ''baking gene''

Okay, yeah, I just hate baking- I admit it!!!

I don't usually measure either. I just kinda eyeball it. Generally I just throw a bunch of stuff into a bowl & call it a recipe. My food blog now scares you more than ever, doesn't it!

No, lol, it doesn't scare me! I'm just not that into baked goods, but you post plenty of other delicious recipes!

I forgot the time I grabbed the wrong spoon and mismeasured the baking soda and such. My bread EXPLODED out of the loaf pan, it rose so much.

More ancient history...

early in my marriage, I somehow thought that leaving a stock pot full of chicken bones and vegetables on our gas stove (extra low) to simmer all night while we slept was a good idea. Sometime between midnight and dawn all the smoke detectors in the house go off. Hubby and I stand straight up out of bed into a smoke layer...

About 6 minutes later, the full fire department is already there, all the neighbors are awake and wondering if we need a place to sleep for the night (new daughter was only 8 weeks old), and we had only had the house for three months.

Lo and behold, I had discovered a way to make charcoal on the stove-top. And how to smoke a house.
