Ho Hum Weekend Round Up
Good Monday to you all. I hope you had a great weekend and are well rested and rarin' to go. We had a little bit of everything. Friday we were happy there was a new Project Fear to dive into. We found out Chelsea had a very scary birth over the weekend as well and she almost didn't make it. Thankfully her and the baby are still recovering. Very happy she and the newest little ghost hunter are coming through okay. Saturday we grabbed a regrettable lunch and while we were chatting over it talking about Grandma and the turmoil surrounding the death of her dad and how greed reared its ugly head, we got a very immediate and specific sign from her and started laughing. I love the way people are able to do that in an unmistakable way. We drove out to the grave of our pup and my fur sister. It had been far too long and they were in need of attention.

I have to admit I wasn't sure how much I would like this but honestly it is awesome. Great way to get some seriously healthy food while still pleasing your taste buds. You never cease to amaze me!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, this looks so pretty! The colors and the glaze make it so inviting. And it sounds like it was a wonderful success! You are one patient gal to try these new recipes and tweak to your liking. A master chef, indeed!
ReplyDeleteTurnip is a staple where I live! I eat it at least once a week. When my kids were younger they would sometimes complain about having to eat turnip, so a friend told me to sprinkle some brown sugar on the turnip while still hot. Let it sit for a minute then mash. The sugar sort of melts. My kids loved it, and to this day will only eat it if it has a little brown sugar on it! I boil turnip with carrots, cabbage and potato to have with roasted chicken or beef, and make a gravy with the "pot liquor" and drippings from the chicken/beef. I also add diced turnip to homemade soup and stews. I guess our ancestors liked turnip because it keeps well during the cold winter months in a root cellar, and we got used to eating it regularly. I'm going to try your recipe as well, looks so good, though it may be with regular carrots, haven't seen colored carrots for a while, and will improvise with the honey.
