THE 9LB. HAM PROJECT 2K7 - UPDATE D.1
Big update here. It's been "half a ham" since we last spoke. This is an actual colloquialism [see sayings of old Briton]. And sadly I report that there is just one serving in the freezer left of "Kind of Like Ham Tetrazzini (pt. B) [M30]". She were a good ham. Such hope and determination in her young blazing eyes. But whoa it's not yet time to get sentimental. Not yet, ye starter farter. Here is thou ham dishes I've eaten sincey.

THE 5 PIE PROJECT 2K7 - UPDATE B.1
PIE #2 (5/22/2007) >> Orange Cherry White Chocolate Inverted Tart. A disasterous attempt at a tart that turned into a magnificent cobbler. Cherries, oranges, tapioca, and white chocolate baked in a casserole dish after everything started spilling out of the attempted tart.

This Pie-Non-Pie-Tart-Turned-Cobbler was a kitchen fiasco. Flour everywhere. Fire alarms. Slipping feet. But the heat was well worth it. It tastes great. I can't wait to try it with a little scoop of ice cream.

THE UN-OFFICIAL WENDY'S RE-PICKLING PICKLE PROJECT 2K7 - UPDATE B.1
Small batch #3 {SB3} (5/22/2007) is beet juice, apple cider vinegar, ground ginger, cinnamon.

Nothing to say about the pickles --- But hey, I think there may be something in the post title. Yeah. I think that thing needs to come real.
