learned something today

[LOL]Better than accidentally adding salt!
Next time try corn starch and cold water, mix it up and stir it in :D

Funny story!

We need to get you some training son. Some things do look alike (salt-sugar) but mistaking powered sugar for flour........ Powered sugar for cornstarch I would go for especially for those that are challenged in the vision dept.[Flower]

But ya did make mine and the wife's day.[Beer]

This is exactly why the cinnamon sugar and the onion salt are now in two totally different shaped bottles at our house...

I can see that happening. WHY THE HELL ISN'T THIS GETTING THICKER???

IF you ever run out of cornstarch or flour and need to thicken a crock pot dinner up . Throw some instant mashed potato's in there.


On a side note.

Defrosted some cod fillets (one time) thought a lemon juice marinade would perk them up. UNFORTUNATELY marinating fish means minutes in the marinade TOPS. I let this sit an hour[ish], removed from liquid went to throw on the grill. Had 4 pieces of what turned out to be (to this day) known as Squish. A gelatinous pile of who knows what. Even worse we had people over for dinner [fail]

Basically-

2 to 2.5 lb venison roast in crock pot
one pkg Lipton onion soup mix, dry
one can Cream of Mushroom soup
one can beef broth
one onion, peeled and sliced into 1/4" rings
two potatoes, skin on, scrubbed and diced into 3/4" - 1" pieces
handful of fresh mushrooms, washed and sliced
couple stalks of celery, sliced
couple of large garlic cloves, finely chopped
couple handfuls of frozen corn
whatever else you wanna toss in, maybe lemon/pepper seasoning, coarse ground black pepper, some green beans, whatever.
Cook. I put it on high to break the meat down as much as possible so I can chew/digest it better.

I need some more venison now, just about out of critter. Been eating good off that ol' gal for a long time!

Ew. I think I've done this too. Sounds disturbingly familiar.

Put it on Craigslist.

Damn man I'm sorry about your roast, but thanks for the chuckle!
