We have rain, sleet and snow. Looks like they were a little off on the accumulation. Winter is not my favorite season. I like a white Christmas. so it can snow the day before and leave the day after.

The best flavour chips are chicken... always my favourite... and we even have 'chicken' salt that we put on hot chips.... OK think I better clarify... in Aus we call crisps chips and we call fries chips... see... Anyway in Australia chicken flavoured chips sell more than any other flavour... these are my faves... But these are the kids favourite.... We even have chicken flavoured popcorn....

November 22, 20187 yr 1 hour ago, Linda Thomas said: Sounds great - your are welcome at our table. We need to make a rule that recipes should always be accompanied! 9" Cast Iron Skillet Corn Bread 1 c white flour 1 c yellow cornmeal (get the freshest stone ground that you can find) 1 tbsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. salt 2 eggs (beaten) 1 cup half and half, or a milk yoghurt or sour cream combo or just milk. 1/4 cup butter 1 bag frozen corn preheat oven to 425 Thaw, drain and dry with towel corn. Melt a few tbsp butter in 9" cast iron skillet and slowly brown corn. When brown thrown the rest of the butter in to melt. In a bowl mix flour, cornmeal, b. powder, salt. add corn/butter mix, combine lightly. Gently fold in beaten eggs and milky combo. Glop batter into 9" cast iron skillet, shake to level. Bake at 425 for 30 minutes. Check at 20 minutes. Toothpick stuck in, comes out clean = done. v. yum hot out of oven drenched in butter. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cranberry/Orange Relish You need a food processor for this. 1 bag of fresh cranberries 1 or 2 oranges (look for equal amounts cranberry/orange) Wash and pick through cranberries, slice up whole oranges (including skin). Pulse everybody in the processor. Really good with the turkey business but, I like it also in yoghurt. @BAT would like this on Ice Cream. It freezes really well and is delicious in the summertime.

He is the king of cast iron cooking. We are celebrating our Thanksgiving Saturday, which means I still have time to try the Cranberry/Orange Relish. I have a feeling my son would love that! Thanks for the recipes.
