Boy, I can remember my Grandma stickin' to tuna & cheese under the broiler on Friday.  That just gagged me.  So I never visited her house on the weekend.  By Sunday there was meat or poultry on the table, although very little of it.  She didn't like to feed all six of us so we usually got sent a couple at a time to eat with her.  She only lived a mile away but I swear, I saw more of my mother's parents - and they lived in Nebraska!  lol

Thanks Barb! ..... That rice is the saffron yellow rice. Tina said I should have cooked it longer.
I don't like it mushy, and I prefer a little bite to the rice like a nutty taste feel.

I'm not having potatoes....I want a double decker sandwich with bread and gravy.

I sure do!
We call it the feeding pit.
Now that the snow is melted, I can go pick up the bones that the animals didn't eat.

Now that DD has one pig that they killed and butchered Saturday, I have to clean the feet and hocks and burn them to get the bristles off completely. The turkey buzzards will be flying overhead waiting for a treat.

Tina will make pickled pigs feet tomorrow tonight! Yuck!

A lot of that pig, was recycled from food scraps and bread we had.
IT's a small pig ( was a runt ) so not too much meat. They had to butcher it because it was being picked on by the monster 700 lb. pigs. Poor thing wouldn't want to live alone, and it couldn't live with the big ones.

my old deskstop is impacted by  “XP Apocalypse” so it can't function like usual without the right protection.. I've been dragging my feet to buy a new one since last year, Dirk insisted me to get one...it's getting slow with almost no space for my pictures, I bought an external hard drive to store my old files/picture to avoid buying a new PC, but now I can't avoid it any longer, so we ordered one, it will arrive next week.. I don't like using my laptop, esp to upload my pictures, I still don't get use to use it ( I have it for more than a year and only use it for my trips, I'm still not familiar with window 8, yet )..

so no pictures for a while.. today I made some veggies wrap for brunch, sauteed cabbage and tomato with egg, I'm cooking potato and pork in soy sauce for supper.. yesterday we had grilled pork chop, it was delicious.. I took some pics of it, I'll upload it when I get my new desktop ( hopefully it's easy to use, I'm no high tech )
