Tonight's supper

[Bob Wright]

Purple hull peas, corn on the cob, buttered cornbread, coffee. Dessert: A tall glass of cornbread and buttermilk. Chez Fillipe doesn't get any better than this!

Bet I hav had 1000gals cornbread and whole milk through years. Buy I aint never acquired taste for buttermilk. But it makes fine bisquits!!

For me, buttermilk is good for pancakes, biscuits and not much else. If I need it for cooking I just use whole milk: add a little lemon juice, wait for a few minutes and you're good to go.

Icey cold buttermilk is fabulous. Don’t do it often as my cholesterol does back flips. Plus it’s sometimes hard to find.
One great thing about growing up around dairies is that I got to experience “fresh” dairy products. Nothing you buy in a store is fresh. Closest you can get is if the dairy has a small store on the property. Those are getting pretty rare these days.

Buttermilk for me is a pancake ingredient only, no way I'm drinking the stuff.
Bob, you need to add some kind dead animal ( protein ) into that meal. Even an old
guy's body can use it.

Wish you had a spare chair at your table. I'm still not use to cooking just for myself so tonight it was grilled cheese sandwich with Lipton diet green tea.

Some of us just barely finished lunch, and here you guys are talking about desert.

You know, maybe we should start up a "Recipes" section on the Forum. I'm sure there's lots of folks here who have to cook for themselves. I know I do periodically....
Then again, I cook for my wife and myself, and sometimes for the kids and their spouses when they come around.
I KNOW we have some good cooks on this Forum. Be fun to share.

Just a thought...

There use to be a Rugerforum cookbook

I cook by instinct and don’t follow recipes too well. One of the reasons I don’t reload my own ammo.

I wish you could join me. My niece often invites me for supper. She, too, lives alone and tells me it is nice to have someone to talk to at the supper table. I'm no gourmet cook, but I'm pretty well fed!

Speaking of cornbread, a week ago, I made Mexican cornbread which includes diced green chiles, honey, cheese and a can of cream style corn. I had not made it in about 40 years. It came out as delicious as ever.
