Here's Martha!

My friend Cori and I have this running joke about Martha Stewart and her homemade marshmallows. Why on earth would anyone want to make marshmallows?
Well, Cori recently had a birthday so I thought I would give it a try and package them up as if they were from Martha herself.
Well, let me tell you all, I don't eat marshmallows but everyone who tasted them said they were the best marshmallow they had ever eaten - and...they were actually very easy to make.
The big kicker is that you must have a Kitchen Aid stand mixer to make them. Thanks to Andy's sister-in-law I was able to borrow hers.
I would make them again in a minute, and am now on a mission to obtain a Kitchen Aid mixer from ebay.

Posting Backwards - Moving Forward

Hi all,
I have been away from my blog for so long that I forgot how to log on. I'm back now and am going to try to keep up with this on a more regular basis. I will be posting some things I have made recently.

I have been doing a lot of cooking lately and more baking then ever before.
Tonight for dinner I made Mom's Zesty Cabbage Skillet from a Gooseberry cookbook. It was delicious. Basically a deconstructed cabbage roll which is much easier to make and much less time consuming.

Mom's Zesty Cabbage Skillet

1 lb ground beef
1 small onion chopped
2 cloves garlic minced
1 head cabbage chopped
1 to 2 cups ketchup
salt, pepper, garlic, basil
Cooked Rice

In large skillet, brown hamburger, onion and garlic until done. Add chopped cabbage and ketchup until desired consistency. Cover and cook about 30 min until cabbage is tender. Serve over cooked rice. This was really delicious.
