I could have Jimmy but I don't remember. I have made them a few times in the past several months. Charlie requests them sometimes. I just found a larger press so I can make them bigger. It is on order now.

Those kind of things have no appeal to me. I have had recipes published in magazines and newspapers but that is entirely a different thing.

Once in a great while he'll order a piece of cheesecake when we go out, but for the most part he's on the straight and narrow where his diet is concerned. I know it's because if he puts on any weight it really affects his breathing and his COPD, but it's discouraging for me since whenever anyone in the vicinity 'loses' weight, I FIND IT! LOL

I made empanadas . Since I have not been able to locate frozen discos, I have to make them from scratch, so when I saw the tools shown and thought they would be a lot faster to make them. I should be old and wise enough to realize that there is always a catch. But I am not wiser, just older. The catch is that the press makes so small pieces that it takes a lot longer to make them. It was easier to make one but I had to make close to 60 to use the dough. In the past, making them by hand and bigger, I made a little over a dozen.

I asked for suggestions for supper. And, poke me in the eye with a stick, HE came up with an idea! He mentioned 'cubed steak'.......
I think HE was thinking about browned cubed steaks cooked in a tomato & vegetable stew ~ but the first thing that came to MY mind was CHICKEN FRIED STEAK !!!!
So, that's what we had.
And as he was taking his second helpings he said, "This is SO good! I'm not even going to feel guilty about it."
And he was right ~ it was really good and since we only have it once a year or less, I'm not going to feel like I need to take up a gym membership (that I wouldn't go to anyway.....). The mashed potatoes were my normal, made with stewed onions in butter, cream cheese & sour cream. The gravy was made in the cast iron skillet with the remaining bacon grease I fried the double-dipped flour/buttermilk cubed steaks in. I even added about a good heaping teaspoon of freshly cracked black pepper to the gravy before the milk had been added. I think I'll use this pic as the 'wallpaper' on my phone......LOL
