I bought some chicken thighs and bread crumbs to make some fried
chicken. I suppose when I get to it, that will be the ultimate test for
my little make-shift dealio for my cast iron pan.
It is getting cold enough here for me to occaionally drink hot drinks
like hot cocoa or hot tea every once in a while. I know how to make
real hot cocoa with milk, cocoa, and sugar and a little vanilla, but I
usually do it the lazy way with Swiss Miss or whatever. On the Swiss
Miss package, there were 2 suggested ways to jazz it up.
The first was to add some cinnamon (1/8) teaspoon and about half that
much chile powder. I suppose if you do not like hot stuff, you could
just add the cinnamon, but I did not think that small an amount was very
hot.
Their 2nd suggestion was to add a Tbsp of smooth peanut butter. They specifically suggested Peter Pan, but I think Jif, Skippy, stuff from
the dollar store, or even homemade would work just fine. I thought I
would put the peanut butter in, and would have a great big lump of PB
sitting in the bottom of the cup, but it actually dissolved pretty quickly.
To relate this post to quilting, at least a little, I think it would be
a bad idea to drink hot cocoa (or tea or coffee or whatever) when
quilting unless you have one of the spillproof commuter cups.
