Correction: Turns out I am out of honey, brown sugar, and hot sauce, so it would appear I'm making Shake 'n' Bake wings and a side green salad.

Karen, the next time you make those delicious-sounding sweet 'n sticky wings, please invite us over, and I'll make the salad AND bring dessert.

Saturday, we had toasted bagels & cheese, for a light supper. Thanks to our downstairs neighbour Deanofwords for the bagels, which he calls hockey-pucks. LOL

Tonight it's grilled pork chops with apple sauce. Rice & mixed veg.

made a pot of pinto beans. I'm thinking about making a big pot of taco meat out of the 3 lb pkg of meat I have thawed. Have a pkg of that uncle ben's 90 sec. spanish rice (it's really good). I'm not eating but, will roll up buritos, make tacos, nachos, or beef enchiladas - whatever is wanted. Oh yeah - I have a lg avacodo that needs used so I'll make some quac. too.

Ps. Do you make them from scratch?

It was a last minute decision, Holly, otherwise I would have called! There will be leftovers if you can cross the continent in 3 hours... Florida to BC is quite the trek, LOL.

And yes, I make them from scratch - they're very simple.

Here's my recipe if you want to try making them sometime.

4 eggs
1.5 cups milk
1.5 cups flour
pinch of salt
1 Tbsp. melted butter or margarine
shortening for baking tins

At the same time you start pre-heating your oven for the roast, put the eggs and milk on the back element and leave them there to warm up while the roast is cooking.

When your roast is done and you pull it out, jack up the heat to 425. Beat the eggs well, then add the milk and beat until somewhat frothy (this is your only opportunity to get air into the batter and make it light and fluffy; once you add the flour you don't want to mix too much). Add the flour and salt and beat until thoroughly mixed, then pour in the melted butter and mix.

Put a small amount (a teaspoon, maybe? I'm not good with measurements) of shortening into 12 individual muffin trays. Place in hot oven until melted - be careful not to burn it! Remove the pans from the oven and fill about 2/3 full with batter. Bake at 425 for 25-30 minutes. Tent your roast on a plate and make your gravy while the yorkies are cooking. Just tread lightly around the oven while they're in there... even heavy footsteps can cause them not to rise.

Mmmmm...that all sounds absolutely delicious. One of these days I think I'll really try it.
My big sister used to make the best roast beef and yorkies and roasted potatoes. That was her Sunday dinner. God, I miss those days.
