My grandson called the other day and wanted to know if we had any food in the house. He was hungry and his mom won’t cook. The kids are grown. with him, the youngest at 17 years old. He is a funny one. Told him he knows we do and what does he want to eat. Which I knew what he wanted. So last night he came over for a fish dinner. Being winter time it is hard to get fresh fish, so had to go with frozen from freezer. We made hushpuppies, fries, baked beans that I want to start canning my own. I make my own baked beans, but only for a meal at a time. I want to try to can them. Never did that before. And mac & cheese. These grandkids are picky eaters and that is why my daughter hates to cook for them. Her husband is also a picky eater. They hate veggies but will eat some raw ones. I have never had a problem as I just fix what they like. Yes I spoil them rotten. He came over and ate double portions like he hadn’t eaten in a month. Poor child. We enjoyed having him over for dinner. He is a senior and will be graduating in June. Then going to school for business and cyber security. He is going to remain in this area for school he said. His middle sister is in college now going on 5 years. She is going for CSI. After this year she starts medical school. The oldest is married and training dogs for service as well as police dogs. Her husband is in Navy works at naval hospital studying to be a doctor. So the youngest still comes over a lot and sometimes spends weekends with us. Sad that all the grandkids are growing up so fast.

Anyway, cooking chicken tonight from my canned goods. Green beans, squash and potatoes all from what I have canned from the garden. Going to make chicken gravy from scratch as most of what I cook has mostly been scratch cooking. Being diabetics, I don’t do rolls for dinner every time. So no rolls tonight after last nights fish dinner.
