In the Kitchen with Chicken

So I was checking out this new Asian market down the street. In their meat case I come across some sausage labeled Longanisa. Since we all know how much the man loves Lunguica, I figured this should be similar, so I bought some.
Back from the store a quick google search tells me I've just bought a sweet Filipino breakfast sausage. Damn. I was thinking (hoping?) it would be spicy. And appropriate for dinner.
More googling tells me I should serve this with fried rice & eggs.
Fred, from the other room, "I've never had rice with eggs."
I frown, and improvise.

What we learned: This stuff makes a hell of a mess. I cooked it as I would Italian sausage & I was left with a black sticky mess in the bottom of the pan after browning. So black & sticky I thought I would need to buy a new pan. We think there must be honey in these? They are SUPER sweet. Since we're not really the "maple syrup" sausage type people, we will pass on these in the future.

One of the IT guys just logged on to my computer to do some upgrades for me.... This is what he saw:

I am a mess.

I love it when they come pre-boxed.

This makes me laugh!

In the Kitchen with Chicken

So I saw Paula Deen make a recipe the other day that did not involve 4 lbs of butter. It was a Pumpkin Apple Butter Pie. I had to try it.

The pie was good, but we decided for Turkey Day we will stick with the traditional pumpkin pie.

I woke up yesterday feeling like my cold was coming back..... I decided I was obviously vitamin deficient, so I headed to the store to make up for that. So many choices.....

Or maybe I just have Valley Fever. Wonder how many Flintstones that will take to cure?
