Butter is key. Once in a while i will do tomato soup with macaroni and a good tbl of cold butter. It gets dissapointing when the butter on top is gone.

That sounds good PLUS I've had in mind to make a tuna casserole
the last week or two. I always liked them well enough as long as
it's not too often. It has been maybe 10 years now (just guessing
but probably longer than that).
 
A good homemade tuna casserole is nothing for anyone to turn
their nose up about.

That's right up there with "flood control", "good grief" and "ill
health". An oxymoron of the highest degree.

What tuna do you buy? Canned or pouch?
 
Just curious, as my biggest problem with tuna is the smell, overly
fishy, IMO. But am willing to learn about a better product, as I like
fish, in general.

We can safely call this a breakthrough moment in Gary's intellectual
development. I think a moment of silence is called for. Let's pull out
our lighters too.

Yes indeed.Yesterday is was a comment that he had made about the Megan
Markle. He denied saying it, and when faced with the recording of him
saying it he said it was fake news. A few months ago when the NAFTA
talks were going on he talked about how he was not going to make any
concessions at all to our prime minister and would force a deal that
Trudeau would be too embarrassed to sign. He denied saying it, but
someone had him on tape saying it, and he dismissed it as fake news.

It's pathetic and scary that many 1000s believe him!

Yes, if you're cooking ahead it's easy to fill a dishwasher.

Would you? I have one. My wife uses it. She does most of the kitchen
clean up and she prefers to use it. When I am cleaning up, and when I am
on my own I do dishes by hand. I have a dishwasher and I do not use it.
I hate loading and unloading it.

Two for breakfast, two for lunch, two for dinner. Toss in a mixing
bowl, serving bowl, utensils, storage containers, cups, tumblers, and in
two days you have a full load. Drop a pod, push a couple of buttons and
in a few hours you have spotless sanitized dishes. No racks taking up
space on the counter, no contaminated towels.

Why? Because you think so? I don't understand condemning someone for
the choices they make. Do you hand washing folks go to some sort of
house-proud housekeeping heaven because you can say you voluntarily
did the dishes by hand?

You 2 must eat a lot on weekends.

Why? We don't only eat at weekends, I do a lot of prep too!

Of course not. I run the dishwasher when it's full. Every
day, sometimes twice on a weekend day.

There's just two of us, why would we put out service for three?
 
Everything I use to prep gets cleaned and put away while the dish is
cooking... by the time I serve there is nothing to clean other than
plates and utensils we're using and that takes me ten minutes right
after eating and brushing my teeth. Left overs are still cooling in
their pot so go into the fridge later and the next day I portion them
for the fridge and for the freezer, and scrub the pot. People who
actually know how to cook clean as they go, unless they have a maid.
Restaurant cooks don't need to clean as they go because they have a
maid who scrubs pots, pans, bowls, etc., usually refered to as "Deep
Sink Willy"... a real commercial kitchen contains no soaps or glass.
Restaurant dishes and eating utensils go into a large dishwasher in
its own room, the scullery. Barware is washed by hand by the
barkeeper, when a table is cleared the barware is returned to the bar.
Some restaurants have a separate more gentle washer for glassware.
Restaurant cooks do clean their personal items like knives.
At home I wouldn't put my cookware/bakeware/cutlery or woodenware in
the dishwasher anyway, nor good glassware. Even our good company
dishes and eating utensils are washed by hand. Most of my
cookware/bakeware won't fit in the dishwasher.
 
We each use the same coffee mugs every morning, afterwards they are
hand washed and put back on their cuphook all ready for the next day.
I only have coffee in the morning. My wife drinks tea all day and
uses the same cup all day, just keeps refilling it... typically ends
up on her night table so is washed in the morning. Everything in our
home lives in a particular place, especially in the kitchen, that's
one reason why I do all the cooking, everything gets put back where it
lives. When I arrange the pantry items everything is lined up like
soldiers with all labels facing front. Everything in our fridge and
freezer is arranged in a purposeful way, I never need to search, even
in the dark all I need to do is reach in. We're very organized, a
dishwasher would wreak havoc on our routine, would just cause us
grief. We both like to have everything returned to where it lives all
ready to be used again, immediately, same as normal people do with
their toothbrush.

LOL ok, I will leave "Deep Sink Willy" to you. I will use my
dishwasher as I want and need:))) It works for us:))

Around here most beekeepers and gardeners trade their overage. One
season I set up a vegetable stand, was a PIA... people ringing my bell
constantly... when will you have this, that, whatever. When I drop
off a paper sack of veggies at my neighbor's side door won't be long
I'll find a pint of honey by my door. He'd leave me a larger amount
but he knows that a pint will last me a year.

You should hook up with Janet UK. You two could go door to door with
your vegetables, holding hands and singing authentic folk songs along
the way.

There are a few around here that just leave the produce out with a money
jar. People come along, get what they want and leave the money. That
won't work everywhere, but it does around here. AAMOF our neighbour and
her kids cleaned up their gardens and potted a lot of plants to sell.
They put a picnic table out near the road with a sign and a jar. No one
has ripped them off yet.
