Morning Meanderings… a post of plenty….

Published on by Sheila (Book Journey)

Good morning!  So many things going on in my head right now so bear with me please ….  😀

First, thank you to Stacy at Novel Source who featured me on her Sunday Serenade.  So sweet!

Then, my friend Lori at Dollycas’s Thoughts has started a fun challenge that involves us once a month reading something fun just for ourselves.  I do that anyway so why not join the fun?

Finally, as we embark on Thanksgiving eve, I found this yummy sounding recipe from Margot at Joyfully Retired for Corn Souffle.  I have never made it but it sounds super yummy to me so this morning as I completed my Thanksgiving shopping I purchased everything I need to make this.

So that is what I have this morning and yes you read the above correctly.  I was up and at the grocery store at 7 a.m. this morning to beat the after work rush.  With grocery list in hand and the help of Chance we whipped through the aisles grabbing the items off the list, then I took him to school and me to work.

Mission accomplished.

I have no travel plans for the Thanksgiving weekend and I am so grateful for that.  Tomorrow will be relaxing and food and movies (I think College son wants to go see Harry Potter so we will be going again!) and board games!  My kind of day!

For those of you who are traveling, safe travels and a wonderful Thanksgiving to all of you!

  6. My shopping is done too Sheila. I’m excited to leave work at noon today and head home to relax until Monday morning! I’m very excited to have both of my kids home from college tonight, eat some good food and watch a few movies over the next few days. Have a great Thanksgiving!

  13. We have a very similar dish to Margot’s in our family, and I will vouch for its yumminess!

    Chile Corn Custard
    2 c drained corn, frozen or canned
    1 1/2 c melted butter
    2 eggs, beaten
    1 tsp salt
    1 c sour cream
    1 c diced jack cheese
    1/2 c cornmeal
    1 4 oz can diced Ortega chiles
    2 tbsp chopped celery (optional)

    Mix all ingredients together. Pour into a buttered 1 1/2 qt casserole dish, or a 9×9 pan. (Tip from softdrink’s mom: the shallow pans are better than the round dishes with the higher sides, otherwise the middle doesn’t always cook through.) Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes, or until set. Serves 6-8, so you might want to double it if you have lots of people, or kids who fight over the leftovers.
