I bet you thought of Crazy Granny when you saw that, didn't ya?
We just baked a bunch of cookies this week. We started out with pecan sandies, if you follow us on the Face Place you saw the story.
Then Sunday, Cupcake said it was time to start making practice runs for the holiday cookie extravaganza. Lawman's favorite is oatmeal raisin, so that's what we made.
Keeping on the food thread, we had a small batch of deer chili this weekend. Lawman had two deer roasts left in the freezer, so to free up real estate for the new batch that's coming, we used one for chili, except one slice that went for Cupcake's favorite. Deer gravy on Sunday morning.
It's tough to beat anything you can make when you walk out to the garden and grab a couple of onions, fresh peppers and grind up your very own horseradish.
And we fixed a chicken in the crock pot early in the week. We kept the bones and made a gallon of broth with the leftovers.
One last food related item. If you season your cast iron correctly, you can bake biscuits in it without them sticking.
Our big project this week was crab apple trees. Cupcake found a tree she really liked so Lawman found them on the interwebs and ordered two. A couple of days later, he found another site that had trees for a fraction of the price of these two. So now we have seven crab apple trees to our name, but these two arrived Friday and we planted them Saturday, with a little help from "The Boy" and the Dudley Twins.
It was also that time of year, after Deathstroke got an oil change last week, he got a wash and wax this week, winter prep is all done.
We ended the week with wings. And a nap.
