LITTLE MISS SUZIE HOMEMAKER

LITTLE MISS SUZIE HOMEMAKER


In the last 24 hours, I have earned the title of "Little Miss Suzie Homemaker" hands down. I even amaze myself!


Yesterday, using the tomatoes from my own garden, I made 5 quarts of homemade spaghetti sauce. It was a job and it was messy, but oh how good it tasted. I froze it, so I will have the fruits of my harvest and labor throughout the winter months.


Today I was doing my impression of Rachael Ray, hustling and bustling around in my kitchen. I felt like her when I gathered up all my ingredients in one hand and took them to the counter. I was half hoping to see a TV camera and crew when I looked up from my culinary art work. I made a batch of diabetic brownies from scratch and tasted one with a glass of cold milk..........out of this world!


Okay, moving onto more practical culinary projects..........I make some of Sheba's dog food, so I prepared enough cooked rice and cooked carrots to last for a week or so. The aroma from my kitchen flowed through the house with the tang of the sauce, with the sweetness of the brownies, and the stronger smell of the cooked carrots.



Then to top it all off, I cleaned my house and supervised the man who does my yard work, All this, in 24 hours. Eat your heart out, Martha Steward. It is in times like this that I wish I had a husband just so he could be impressed with all my domestic skills!
