I am SO identifying with the anxiety thing! My retail therapy all happens at the grocery store, and I feel poor if I have empty shelves. If I didn’t have the huge privilege to be able to go buy food whenever I want, especially fresh produce, this would all feel really different to me (and has, many times in the past — part of why I make a game of it is to keep from getting sad when I don’t have enough money to go grocery shopping.

Love you!

How awesome that you are still doing this blog! Looking forward to more…

And it’s kinda funny that you’re doing the clearing-the-pantry project. We’re pretty short on cash this month, and we’ve been surviving on what’s in the freezer and pantry shelves. It’s been a good challenge for me to consistently come up with nutritious and tasty meals for five people. Things are starting to get kind of creative as we progress through along. But I notice that I’m starting to feel a little nervous and vulnerable, seeing the shelves grow emptier. We’re lucky… I know we have a paycheck coming next Friday and that I’ll be able to at least partly replenish the empty places, but it’s been an eye-opener to realize how much I depend on my well-stocked shelves, not just for a source of our family’s food, but for a sense of security and calm. Good luck with your own creative challenge, and CONGRATS on finishing up school! So proud of you! :D

Comment on Mertie’s Mondays: Acadian Stuffing and Turkey Sandwiches by Paul L Saulnier

Being Nova Scotian, I have a point of clarification im that the French speaking Acadians were expelled from Nova Scotia by the British causing many to head to Louisiana and became Cajuns. This recipe is close to the one our mother made every year and now will be my turn as she passed away in February and never wrote down the recipe. I have faith in my abilities to recreate the taste!

That lasagna sounds like a hit. At least the ricotta faired well in that form, since I doubt a rubbery ricotta would keep you coming back for another bite in its fresher form. Looking forward to more Cheesepalooza adventures!

Good thought on adding the ricotta to a lasagna — that is what we did with an earlier, and chewier, batch as well. The boys said is was the best batch ever, so go figure.

Hee! It’s my fave; I even prefer it to homemade, and it’s all we had growing up. :-)

Draining the curds on the tap is so smart! We rigged up a bucket and broomstick which was much less elegant looking.

That lasagna looks so cheesy and delicious! I can’t wait to make a huge batch with both homemade ricotta and mozza in the future.

That lasagna sounds outrageously good!
