No, But It’s Really Raining!
Seriously, this whole April Showers thing has to be re-examined. Right now it is POURING and 43 degrees. Yuk, and yuk.

But, apparently, the weather has made me some sort of weird nesting type: Today I’ve made strawberry muffins, whole wheat molasses bread and butternut squash corn chowder. And, because I am self-confessedly weird this way, I was so thrilled to use up one bag of whole wheat flour, the molasses, the corn meal and the about-to-go strawberries. I despise wasting food, more than a person really should. And when the bread called for buttermilk? Swoon! I’d used some the previous night for chicken pot pie, but still had some left over.
Now I have just a little bit left, enough to make buttermilk biscuits for the son, who adores them.
Yay!

Good for you making the best of this day. What a mess and still raining tonight. Ugh.

I’m kinda strange about wasting food too. The other morning I looked into the fridge and pulled out a bunch of leftover things and cooked the best breakfast. It did, however, have gravy on top of it, not the healthiest of foods. But who can resist a little gravy?
