Where is everyone lately? This place is like a ghost town. Is anyone out there???

I was thinking the same thing yesterday......has the election scared

everyone away and thev've gone into hiding?

 
Just been busy & going crazy. Test run of my 2nd dessert for the final is due tomorrow night....

and I'm down to the last minute as usual making it. Between DD & DH they are driving me nuts. I need a break from my family! Calgon can't take me away far enough!!!!!!!

I'll be glad when this semester is over. Next semester won't be easy but atleast I don't think I'll have to worry with having to do 'homework' assignments - reading and studying, yes, but full blown cooked projects to take to class, no. As much as I love to cook, I don't like this type of homework.

 
OH - however, I did make this Beef & Guiness pie last night & it's so YUMMY

and perfect for this time of year. I don't make it often but when I do, I wonder why I don't make it more because it's really pretty easy and impressive if you have some fun with the puff pastry. When I have the time I like to make Nick Malgerie's quickest puff pastry with REAL butter unlike the freezer case stuff. It's perfect for this.

Nan, its so nice to be remembered...(recipe link to a delicious Butternut Squash and Crab Bisque)

I check in with you every morning, but I need to do better about adding to the fray. Thanks for reminding me. Jus ol debil procrastination, I guess!

I made this bisque last week, and I've never tasted better. I upped the crab meat to 1 lb of claw meat, and added 1 T of dry sherry to each bowl. It tasted even better the second day. I think it needs resting time for the flavors to meld.

I'm here, but lurking, these days. Going through a cooking rut... Too many worries about the economy

to get very excited about anything. smileys/frown.gif

Good thing take-out has been elevated to an art form, here in NY!
