I also have a large collection of cookbooks, people keep on giving/buying me them - I can't think why when I'm a complete disaster in the kitchen, maybe they are trying to tell me something. Something like - learn to cook. Come to that, I'd also love to be able to knit like my mam or crochet like my nana. Oh well, I suppose I'll just have to stick to reading books, cookbooks included.Felicity Grace Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17852843882007267665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34398479.post-89590133336067330572009-11-09T02:51:37.074-05:002009-11-09T02:51:37.074-05:00Oh dear..... that was a great pity.

I take it you weren't able to help it out of its bland state with a little bit of gravy poured on? <br /><br />I've got to think there's nothing much more disappointing than following a recipe to a T and having it come out wrong. <br /><br />Better luck with your next new recipe!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05698969349369789642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34398479.post-64277097557353436302009-11-08T22:54:03.858-05:002009-11-08T22:54:03.858-05:00Shame after all your effort that it didn't tur...Shame after all your effort that it didn't turn out. I have had a few of those disasters, unfortunately they seem to happen when we have someone over, and not necessarily to a new recipe. It is uncanny if we invite someone, it burns, it doesn't get cooked properly, or what have you, and I am not a bad cook just a bit adventurous.Bernihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02393286338757929488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34398479.post-60476502050235598352009-11-08T22:45:44.754-05:002009-11-08T22:45:44.754-05:00So disappointing to try a new recipe and not like ...So disappointing to try a new recipe and not like it. Most of the time, we can think of a few tweaks to make something better, but sometimes we decide NEVER AGAIN! We're eying a few soup recipes from this past week's Food section of the paper.

As you described it initially, it sounded really good to me too. I'll take your word for it that it wasn't.<br /><br />Now the London Broil... that DOES sound good. I love anything I can put in the crock pot, and also commonly add Lipton soup mixes, or canned soup and packaged gravies too.terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12510457113017189354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34398479.post-64067590560518169242009-11-08T20:18:28.551-05:002009-11-08T20:18:28.551-05:00PS

LOL. I cooked for 3 days for the church social (home coming) and all that went all gone was the baked chicken and the fudge. LOL. <br /><br />Tell your daughter to add me to her facebook so I can view the pictures!<br /><br />I like to make crockpot dishes and I also buy them yummy booklets all the time.<br /><br />As far as the pattern books for crochet and knitting... I just don't know how to read a pattern for them! I think they look neat and would love to learn to read them but for now, it is scarves and blankets! LOL. Straight line and the only pattern is if I use multi-colored yarn!<br /><br />JennJennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10319000223773398092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34398479.post-33691220251418155632009-11-08T19:18:26.941-05:002009-11-08T19:18:26.941-05:00Jeni,

I don't blame you for not making it again. <br /><br />We all experiment and sometimes it doesn't turn out. If you want something that is delicious and great comfort food, shred potatoes, carrots and onions, add a dab of butter, wrap them in tinfoil and BBQ. Mmm!<br /><br />Wishing you a great week.<br />Blessings,<br />MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08175754179624182953noreply@blogger.com
