What did happen this weekend?
1. Made homemade unsweetened applesauce.
2. Made apple butter in the crock pot.
3. Canned the apple butter in 12-8oz jars.
4. Made a peach pie. (Apple would have been more chopping than I was interested in.
5. Used leftover pie crust to make little 'pies'. Filled some with leftover apple butter. Filled others with a chopped almond, honey, vanilla filling. Baked for 18 minutes at 375 degrees.
6. Prepared and currently baking a bone-in, ribeye roast.
7. Prepared and currently baking red potatoes, chopped green pepper and onion.
Appliances used:
Canning pot, mini chopper, mixer w/ juicer attachment, dishwasher, stove, both baby and momma ovens, stock pots, mini cuppy caker pan, roasting pan, numerous utensils, etc.
Trying to decipher to whom to gift the apple butter to for Christmas. Trying to decipher if I'm going to make some homemade applesauce whilst the bags of apples are so cheap. Trying to remember what I was going to hunt the Internet for...

Panic in the kitchen...
So....
I made a very nice meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green bean dinner last night for Mr.Catman. And he had oatmeal raisin cookies for dessert.
We have a rule: the person cooking does not have to clean up. So, Mr. Catman was working on hand-washing dishes while I was making cookies. Of course, he does not want to get his wedding band dirty, so he places his shiny ring on our black potholders in order to wear the ring when he finishes.
Well, Mrs.Catman needs the potholders. So she quietly relocates his wedding band to a safer edge of the counter where her rings are. So they can 'be together.' Catman finishes, then proceeds to the television, to watch the World Series. After about 5 minutes he rushes to the kitchen, all in a panic, trying to find his ring that is no longer on the potholders that were being used.
"Um,where's my ring? I set it right here on the potholder."
(Panic, panic)
"I relocated it to a safer place next to mine."
You should've seen the relief in his face. Just another reason why I love this man. He was so sincere. (Insert mushy, mushy sounds.)
