    Hot Toddy

    I got this recipe from a friend of mine. Her husband vouches for its medicinal value against the common cold.

    Mushroom Pie (Sienipurakka)

    Auntie Gena gave me this recipe after we had it for lunch during a visit to Glenmount in 1999. Then Edward and I made it for Mom's birthday a few years ago when we were in Winnipeg before our wedding. Everybody there liked it, even though some weren't so sure when they saw so many mushrooms go into it. I'm typing the halved recipe (it will make one pie).

    Snow On A Mountain

    We had this at a Ladies Rally in Emo, Ontario in June, 1981.  It is a fun meal to serve, good to serve after you've just done a major grocery shopping since there are quite a few ingredients.
    I don't know how many this serves, but would guess at least a dozen. When this is served the ingredients are served in order.  Begin with the rice, then the chicken and gravy, followed by the remaining ingredients in the order given.

  • Ruam

    Real ruam as we had it in Nigeria uses African yam as the staple, and there are many variations on the sauce.  In Canada, we continue to enjoy this version of it occasionally, and almost always on Christmas Eve. This makes a finger food, but you must make sure the potatoes are hot so that the gluten does its work.

  • Ground Beef and Veggies

    We like this as a side to the boxes of macaroni and cheese.  It is also good over rice.  Leftovers of rice, ground beef, and veggies added to Campbell’s Tomato Soup is one of Jonathan’s favourite soups.

    Back in 1996 I was using powdered milk in quite a bit of baking. Haven’t done that for years. Just use milk in place of water.

    Also, I don’t usually have corn syrup in the house. Honey or sugar replaces that. I warm the milk to about 110F.
