My homemade bread, which resembles round rocks from the outside, is holding up pretty well. I won’t be using that recipe again.
It was in the low 20s (Fahrenheit) this morning so while my car warmed up, I had what is becoming my usual breakfast. Toast with margarine and tea. I’m a Southern Girl, I do so love my tea.
Its been difficult to limit myself to just three tea bags a day. Each bag makes one glass of iced tea. I only have 5 left until Saturday morning when my new week of rations would start. Good thing that I’ve been saving them in the refrigerator for a ‘rainy day’. I might never make it otherwise.
Where I’m from you start drinking iced tea around the same time you can walk.
Lunch will be leftovers from last night. I sauteed them in a skillet with about a teaspoon of Crisco (my lard) and then, I poured in 1/2 c. water, covered with a lid and reduced heat to a simmer. 20 minutes later, I had a meal. Well, probably not a terribly nutritious meal, but it wasn’t bad. It also tasted really good.
Tonight, I have to make something a little more exciting.
I might make twice baked potatoes but I should really do something with that head of cabbage I have at home.
