You sent me down a rabbit hole. The best cut for making your own chipped beef is a a round. Brine it. Smoke it. Then freeze and thinly slice. Then dry it in your dehydrator. Gonna be salty for sure.
Mother used to buy little jars of chipped beef, and then make a cream sauce and mix it in. Then...
Time is to hand off the feedings to your GD's. Maybe not the middle of the night ones. Soooooo cute! I hope its good weather while the girls are with you.
Its been too warm here too. We are not getting the temps down enough to create snow, which impacts the snow pack, which will affect our water levels this summer. From tomorrow on, its up to mid 50's and clear as a spring day. Not good.
We are camping in our new to us Class A. Getting out the wrinkles, so to say. Lots of frustrating moments for hubs, but I'm writing down everything in a notebook, so we can fix/modify/etc before we leave for Arizona late next week.
I thought of both of you yesterday, as I was mixing in some Folgers with some Seattle Best coffee. I'm slowly weaning hubs and son from the pricy stuff to Folgers.
Hubs has used F&D for decades in his construction biz. He used to drive from San Jose to Roseville to get their selection. Good company. Wave at the homeless around there. They are the one's I take old canned goods to. They always say thank you!!
Oh, and there is a Lowes there too. Surrounded...
Oh my Gosh...my heart burst into tears at the departure of beloved Lumen. Thank you sheeps, for your presence. Thank you God, for opening the clouds for Lumen's trip to Over the Rainbow Bridge.
