I only use milk in sausage gravy or when made from the skillet I do fried chicken in ...
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

Bingo. I learned a couple years ago that "biscuits and gravy" is a HUGE breakfast staple in these parts.

To me, the gravy they're talking about (ground pork sausage in a bechemel sauce) is akin to SOS, though SOS is usually made with ground beef.

Either way, it goes down pretty good.

Milk does have its uses in making gravies....

I just use flour and a whisk.  No straining, no shaking. 

I just open a can & pour.  :evillaugh:
