    Tax Season Woes

    Spouse feeling grumpy about so much time spent at office doing taxes. So went home early last night to nice dinner, and decided to impress spouse by making strawberry shortcake, fresh strawberries, real whipped cream, etc. Spouse says "this cake tastes funny." Well, yes....it seems I sliced up the cornbread instead of the loaf of pound cake for the base. Actually, it wasn't too bad, IMO.

    Cornbread

    I'll have to try that. I love cornbread. No cracklins in it tho with strawberries.

      Probably more fiber, too, right?!

        One time

        One time my mom, who can't see too well, put cinnamon (instead of sage) in the Thanksgiving dressing (stuffing). Mmmm. We found out she doesn't taste too well either, apparently, cause she didn't even notice. We remember that fondly every Thanksgiving.
        If you loan someone $20 and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

          Adorable. I find waving the deposit slips in the spouse's general direction clears some of the blues away, but strawberries & cream is, well, sweet!

            Reminds me of the time I sprinkled cayenne pepper all over the french toast instead of the cinnamon. I've got to give up trying to cook.

              Oh well; maybe you ought to let your wife do the cooking.

                Spouse Out of the Kitchen

                Burke, you tried so hard, so it was the thought that counts

                I try to keep my husband out of the kitchen for meal preparation, one only knows what we would end up eating , and he does smile, when I give him the "deposits" to go to the bank.

                  Yes, Haensel, but only if her name is Gretel, and it is not tax season.

                    But I TOLD you, I don't like gingerbread! (grin

                    Maybe a little Kirschwasser will help out though.
