- 🐙

she is the sweetest baby... she loves to sit in my lap and cuddle or watch me play (sometimes she must be removed from my desk though because she tries to eat my mouse cord 😭)

here's some more of her silly face just for you

#she's gotten so big #it feels like just recently when she was a tiny baby who could fit in your hands #she is very well behaved though #for the most part she doesn't mess with all the things in my room anymore #she loves getting treats so she's easy to train lol #she loves a bite of turkey and chicken hehe #but I can't seem to teach her how to sit #I taught her how to stand up and now she never sits her butt down for a treat 😭 #she is a loaf of half cooked bread #ask mags

So, let’s get my mind out of the gutter for a moment shall we? How was everyone’s holiday? I put on thanksgiving at my house for my parents and anyone else who wants to show up like no place to go? Come to my place. So I always get the biggest bird I can find. And I know everyone says this but no one makes a better turkey than me. That thing is SO moist and flavorful and therefore it creates the best gravy. People have 3rds and 4ths here it’s crazy lol. Good times. I still have a good amount left on it in my fridge though but my roommates with make short work of it I’m sure.

So anyone else put on a huge meal? Do you give your turkey the “spa treatment” as I call it lol (rubbing a stick of softened butter underneath the skin all over the entire bird) it’s been a game changer and I actually used to use a flavor injector too but fuck that I don’t even need to do that anymore just the butter rub down salt pepper thyme (I add like 1 1/2 cups of water to the bottom of the pan to make sure the juices don’t dry out) and I baste it every hour.

That’s right I can fucking cook too I was raised by crazy Italians in Boston I know all the secrets lol

#thanksgiving #how I cook my turkey #I can cook too

Costco employees at Christmas time braver than any marine

#I realize I am the problem too BUT #I was informed by my wife three days ago that we are hosting my mom and brother for an early Christmas dinner #one thing about growing up no one tells you is one day YOU have to make Christmas dinner #also sometimes your wife and mom work together and talk more than you do #I’m very husband coded in this #ANYWAYS #time to go research how to cook a turkey bc I’ve never done it before and I don’t want to poison my whole family #AND THEYRE SO EXPENSIVE GOD #we used to be a country etc etc

@awkwardcourage liked for a fun lil' starter

"It's peach cobbler. I don't know, Al made it." The much older man spoke while pointing towards the dessert that sat between them and rubbed his chin awkwardly. She'd gone out with the boys, leaving the two to fend for themselves and Bobby had never been much of a cook. Maybe in his younger years, but Karen had been the skilled chef of the home and after... well... not much thought had been put into making his house a beacon for family meals.

Allie was the damn dictionary definition of good housekeeping. Still, that didn't mean she should have to do it all the time and Thanksgiving had arrived. The first was where all the kids were together. "You know how to... cook a damn bird?"

my plans to draw Lord Death leaving a turkey in charge of the Death Room for turkey day was thwarted by an actual legitimate turkey in need of rescuing in my driveway. alright.

#“don't name it Soul you can't keep it it will eat you out of house and home” i tell myself #“I DON'T CARE HOW LONG YOU'VE WANTED TO RAISE TURKEYS” i TELL MYSELF. #i was like. just stepping into my room to doodle between cooking and my dad runs in like COME LOOK OUTSIDE :DDDD

tip/reminder for anyone stressed about their grocery budget and/or who just loves to eat good food - MAKE YOUR OWN STOCK.

keep a zip-lock bag in your freezer for veggie scraps (literally shit you'd throw away - the ends of carrots and onions, onion peels, celery ends, etc. you can google and/or play with which scraps to use vs. not but mine always has lots of onion and carrot). you can put herbs you like if you want and have them.

if you don't eat meat, when the bag is full, simmer the contents in water for a long time - hours. you can also do it in a crock pot or pressure cooker if you have one. throw in some scraggly veggies from your fridge. peppercorns, bay leafs, some garlic. half a lemon. whatever you want and have. almost-bad tomatoes are fine in there but will make it much darker. simmer until you have broth (a little thicker, a lot darker, smells delicious), strain it and freeze it. use it in soup, sub for water when you make plain rice to make it healthier and tastier. make pastina. add it to other dishes for a nutritional and taste boost.

if you eat chicken or beef (or other meats but thats what i usually use), throw in the bones and scraps too. don't skim the fat (unless you have a medical reason to avoid animal fat).

i keep chicken and beef stock in my freezer ALWAYS and get super pissed when i have to buy broth/stock because it's expensive and tastes like nothing compared to what i make.

i freeze mine in mason jars (leave room at the top so they don't explode in the freezer!) because i'm southern and have so many in my house it should be a crime, but you can use tupperware, freezer bags, whatever you've got.

i ran out of chicken broth last week so i bought a whole chicken for $10 (they used to be $5 wtf) and roasted that in the oven with some veggies which was 2.5 meals for my family of 3 and then put the carcass and leftover bones and scraps in a pot with my freezer bag of random scraps and simmered it forever and the resulting broth smells so good it's making me hungry even though i just ate. i've got a quart jar and 6 pints of goodness going in my freezer and i made it all with stuff that otherwise would've gone in the trash.

good stock is my religion feel free to ask questions <3

#feeling god in this chilis (my kitchen) tonight #i'm not religious but the closest i get is the power of good food #making something delicious and nourishing out of barely anything is an art form and an act of love #food is my love language #food #i don't know wtf to tag this i was just feeling passionate about homemade stock tonight #also if you have friends who cook meat with bones but don't make stock steal the bones! #i drove a turkey carcass three hours home one time bc my mil wasn't planning to make stock with it #i was like ma'am #i don't know how you grew up but we do not THROW AWAY poultry bones in my house #this bad boy is coming home with me #she was equal parts horrified and impressed #but whatever i got tons of free stock out of it :)

Girl who has never seen Breaking Bad, shittily vacuum sealing an oz of weed into smaller sandwich bags: Getting A Lot of Breaking Bad Vibes from this

#drugs cw #you fill a LARGE bowl with water and put whatever you want into the bag #then mostly seal the bag except for a bit on the corner #then SLOWLY submerge the bag #holding it at the bottom #and when it gets to the top you close that corner #and voila #an imperfect but close enough vaccum seal #this is how i freeze meat lol. keeps out freezer burn and lets you portion out bulk buys 👍 #but it also works on drugs #autobiography #breaking bad #jesse jesse we need to cook a pound of ground turkey etc

Some food I've made lately

#ok to reblog #cooking lily #i love my bread machine i love cream cheese i love chicken #this is your sign to fry chicken nuggets. air fry shallow fry deep fry idk just try it #hell. this is your sign to take the foods you like and learn how to cook them. its so nice #the turkey sandwich and chicken salad sandwich? my faves from Einstein Brothers Bagels #the alfredo? my fave from Olive Garden #why go to a chinese buffet for Philadelphia rolls when you can make them #not all of these recipes use a stove (you technically don't even need a toaster for the sandwiches i just think it gives them good texture) #most of them are pretty easy (id say the hardest was the fried chicken breast bc hot oil is scary) #you need to eat to survive so eat things that make you happy!!

the Martha Stewart podcast interview with tieghan gierhart (half baked harvest/top scammer of the food blogger world) is the perfect useless shabbes drama

#If you want cringe if you want the worst of the worst of the worst useless cringe you have EVER heard #Martha Stewart versus one of the great social media scammers of our age on how to cook a thanksgiving Turkey

[rossithepixie]

I desperately want to create things but I’m painfully tired after prepping the turkey for tomorrow. Frankly the mental battle of handling so much raw poultry was worse than the physical aspect of moving around an 18lb bird.

#the pixie speaks #i can’t stress enough how much it icks me out #i go through several gloves and stop to wash my hands multiple times because i just… yeah raw poultry man #for someone who eats so much chicken turkey the prep stage of cooking it fucking sucks #food cw #no idea why it flips out my brain so bad #i wish i had someone else cooking with me and i could just prep everything else and then direct them on what needs to be done to the turkey #I’m actually fine once i’m at the actual cooking

me: hm don't earthquakes have like a second phase or smth? weird that this one didn't. maybe it got mixed into the first one which is why it felt so long. why are my legs shaking again btw

#you're never gonna guess what happened again. no really guess. i bet you can't. #what how did you know it's another earthquake??????? :OOOOOO #this one's shorter and weaker tho. thank god bc i got pasta cooking atm. #hopefully this will be my last post on the topic lol sorry abt that. #edit: apparently there was a 6.7 richter scale earthquake in turkey so it was felt here #it woke my mom up ajskflglg as well as apparently a lot of ppl in the building
