Sleepy food- A thread for Qwerty and SirWagginson

[QueenofCorona]

I'm down. I half ass a lot of things but not my cooking. I'm anal about meat. My turkey is juuuuuuicey, lots of spices well buttered. I marinate the shit out of it. Alton's red wine gravy and lumpy red skinned mashed potatoes, dinner rolls with a monkey load of butter, sweet potatos, sage stuffing with apples and raisins, cranberries (the real lumpy kind), green bean casserole, apple cider, relish tray, pumpkin pie. Maybe a rhubarb/craberry/blueberry pie.

i think i'm in love with you. will you be my baby's mama?

[QueenofCorona]

Deal. I will cuddle it and buy pretty little outfits. You can have baby back when it shadoobies, barfs, and screams.

[misombra]

...when it rolls doobies?

okay that's fine.

[QueenofCorona]

Especially when it poops up to its neck and its oozing out the diaper and its clothes. Massive assplosions I don't do. I will barf. No one wants that.

[qwertz]

Sorry, I know how that goes. Insomnia is horrible. If you lived closer I'd bake a turkey for you. Turkey has L-tryptophan aka the sleepy drug.

So THATS why i always fall asleep after struffing myself at xmas

That is awesome! If you hate your job why not try cooking for a living?

[QueenofCorona]

I've toyed with the idea of going to Le Cordon. I just don't want to end up working at a Denny's or something every night and every weekend. Cooking/baking is my relaxation tool.

That is SO true about the cooking industry. I love to cook, and had considered going to school to become a professional cook. I ended up meeting two people who were cooks and said that working weekends and holidays are the norm. That sucks. Have you considered cooking and selling straight out of your home? That's how Paula Deen got started, and look at her now.

so yesterday my bf's coworkers threw us a little baby shower and took us out to eat. on the menu was...

turkey and stuffing dinner!!!

i was like omg this is so rad. it wasn't that bad you know? it wasn't like the real deal. but it sure did satisfy my thanksgiving dinner craving.

i slept pretty good last night too.

oh hell i'm starting to crave it again sitting here thinking about it.

I would LOVE to do small time catering but I don't know what the market really is here in the midwest for it. When I was with my ex who was in law school at the time the plan was for him to be a lawyer and I could do catering parties for the rich lawyers he knew. Fail boat 2005. Oh well.

What state are you in again?

[QueenofCorona]

Minnesota.

Oh. I only asked because I just drove cross county. I was helping my best friend move from Washington State to Maryland. We went through Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania. We did it all in 61 hours.
