| elvis here, |
| I know that ya'll haven't heard from me in a while. Shoot, some of you don't even know who I am, but maybe you'll figure it out. I just wanted to write about macaroni and cheese. |
| Wednesday night, sanbarhero and songlight7 came home from church, where there had been a "covered dish supper". sanbar was talking about how much food there was. He said it was "the most per-capita food he recollected ever seeing at one of those things". |
| Songlight7 was going on about the macaroni and cheese someone brought. She said it reminded her of what her Mama used to make...just the right juices down in it, and with cheddar cheese cooked on top until it was crispy around the edges, and barely firm in the middle. Hurt yourself on it! |
| Then she got to talkin' about how she wished she knew how to make it like that. Sanbar asked, "how did your Mama fix it?" She described what you mixed up to pour around in the macaroni, and the cheese on top, and all. Sanbar said, "I can do that!" |
| This evening when Songlight got home from working at the church, she said "what's for supper?" sanbarhero said, "we gonna have Macaroni and Cheese, green beans, and salmon croquettes, and I'm fixin' it. Go sit down and rest. It won't take long". |
| Well, Ya'll probably already know how to fix salmon croquettes, so I won't tell you. |
| Sanbar cooked enough macaroni to be about an inch deep in that big Corning Ware dish. He mixed up a little flour, an egg, and some buttermilk, so it made about half a glass, and poured it around in the macaroni. Then he put grated cheddar cheese all over the top...plenty, and put dot's of butter around on top of that. Then he put it in the oven to cook, while he fried them salmon croquettes. |
| When they sat down to eat it, Songlight took a bite and said, "Oh, Mike, that's it!" By that, she meant it was like her Mama's macaroni and cheese. Sanbar grinned real big. |
| Well, to get to the moral of the story. Ya'll probably know how sanbar is off work 'cause his feet are messed up, and his back is stove up, and all that. Well, he's doing some cookin' and stuff, trying to help out and do right, you know. Sanbar told me that he didn't realize how good it makes you feel to have someone brag on your cookin' and things, until he got in this situation, and she was workin' and he was halfway tending things at home. He says he knows of a lot of times when he could've said something nice to Songlight7, and just plain didn't do it. |

If the moral of the story ain't clear to you, you better read it again. |
