I’m just so excited to see you & this thread! Yippee! After a Halloween day at an elementary school it’s nice to curl up with adults. ; )
This morning when my husband dropped me off at work, I suddenly realized that I wasn’t wearing anything at all to celebrate Hallowe’en.
Husband said, “You’re dressed exactly like a serial killer - they always appear perfectly normal”.
For Halloween my lady is in the kitchen right now cooking a pork tenderloin and scalloped potatoes. My Arsenic And Old Lace dvd is cued up and waiting for dinner and a movie.
I grew up darn near in Canada, but we always had this as a side dish..

We watch it every Halloween...tradition. I would love some Elderberry wine but I’d probably get sick after the three beers I’ve had...oh, and the O’Mara’s Itish Cream!

My Friends Mother still melts when I tell her she makes the best corn chowder I have ever had.

Amen Liz!
Explain parboil for a sweet potato please & what is the K you’re sprinkling on?
Your husband has a great sense of humor!
I’ve always heard about that play/movie but never seen it, and will have to look for it.
