Tries to fit in with the local ladies (Lynette, Bree, Susan, and Gabby) and finds the only way to eventually take over Bree's bakery business (and Susan's husband) is to pretend she can't cook and be taken in as Bree's humble slave....<br /><br />As my mother in law put it: I can cook. I just don't want to. <br /><br />She got that right. : )Laura Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16498834786144118464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1562399109879575214.post-45356982717304673372010-01-11T17:59:14.836-05:002010-01-11T17:59:14.836-05:00My husband and I once went to an Italian restauran...My husband and I once went to an Italian restaurant that served American cheese as part of it's antipasto. I knew as soon as I saw the cheese, curling at the corners on the platter that I shouldn't have ordered the Veal Marsala! My husband wisely ordered a juicy New York Strip as soon as he took one look at the joint!<br />But...about Laura. I wish we lived closer, June, so we could compare notes, because I have to say every time I have been at her house she has fed me very well indeed! She has made savory, sensuous, potstickers bursting with ginger and garlic (and I saw her stuffing each one so I know she made them!), velvety pumpkin soup (yum!), and hearty Cincinnati chile (ok, not that technical, but she didn't forget any ingredients and even had all the fixin's on hand). So I think she's got a good thing going PRETENDING she can't cook whenever she's been too long in the woods or meadows staring into trees and bushes looking for birds (I'm pictuing Maria Von Trapp rushing back down the mountain as the convent bells are ringing...).<br />So...the question is:<br />How do you solve a problem like Laura?!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03486323050052424560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1562399109879575214.post-9016177056480766742010-01-11T05:15:12.342-05:002010-01-11T05:15:12.342-05:00filing this one away for cooler temps. Sounds out ...filing this one away for cooler temps. Sounds out of this world, but no way am I having the oven on for 3 hours in this heat (80 to 90* F) with no A/C. This will be perfect for our winter in a few months.<br /><br />Unless you think I could do this in the crockpot??? <br /><br />(kidding!!!!

I really couldn't give a damn about food. : )<br /><br />The recipe called for wine.
