How was your weekend?
Better than mine, I hope.
Yeah, it's football season, when one's favorite team gets sandbagged.
My mighty Arizona Cardinals were beaten, routed even, by a team that was a huge underdog.
But "my" ASU Sun Devils pulled out another great fourth quarter on Saturday to mark another victory in their pretty good season.
So I guess you could call it a draw.
But you didn't come here to hear about football.
I know that many, if not most of you don't even follow sports.
And that's fine.
Lessee, what else is new.
Oh I tried a new recipe the other day and cooked a Mushroom Stroganoff which came out pretty good.
SWMBO and I were discussing it and I said I'd been watching a cooking show on television and the lady made a Ground Beef Stroganoff and she included mushrooms and said every stroganoff had to have mushrooms.
I said I hadn't previously known that and said that my Mushroom Stroganoff was kind of strange, then, wasn't it?
Judy said she thought that when I was talking about making it for days ahead of time but she wasn't going to say anything and she thought it was delicious after the fact so . . what the hey?
I do kind of get a bit tense when I'm trying a new recipe but I think I've found just the thing to ease that and I'm offering to share it with you in case you have "a case of the nerves".
It's just in time too.
Stroganoff always has mushrooms, unless it's made in ND with mushroom soup that kind of, sorta has mushrooms in it. The ground beef Stroganoff was always called "poor man's stroganoff" back home then..
ReplyDeleteI tried a new recipe for scones and they are so hard that they could be used in a building foundation. Oh well. Your efforts always seem to turn out great!
ReplyDeleteOr maybe I tell you about the ones that work! I've had trouble with scones on the maybe two occasions that I've tried to bake them.
DeleteStroganoff is tasty.
ReplyDeleteThe highlight of my weekend was breaking my nose, so....
Hmmm, I love Stroganoff. You've given me an idea for dinner this week :-)
ReplyDeletePumpkin spice, ick! But I do love mushrooms in my stroganoff. That's the way my mother has always made it. Football has been sucky for me lately too as a Huskies and Seahawks fan. Ick again.
ReplyDeleteYou really do a lot of yummy cooking there. I don't think I've ever had stroganoff. I'll have to google around and see what I'm missing.
