Skins's island is s-o-o-o-o-o-o boring today I decided to wander over to see what seditious activities the cooking and baking primitives are brewing.
It's dead. The cooking and baking forum is withering away right before one's eyes.
And it's not going to help that the cbayer primitive is abandoning ship and going onshore for a while.
First up, dear old sweet lazy Lu, who never tells what she's fixing bewhiskered overalled Bill, he with the face of a Pennsylvania Dutch farmer, for supper:

i'm going to have to give it a try
<<<takes yams and sweet potatoes and tosses them out into the gardens to rot and decay and fertilize the soil for sensible stuff.

10. Me neither.
Realized I was out of carrots so added a good bit for something orange. We'll see, smells good so far.

7. chili and cornbread
not sure if it will be beef or just beans yet, depends on my sister. i'll throw some diced jalapeno and creamed corn into the cornbread and bake it in the skillet with bacon fat.
i'm also doing a flourless chocolate cake for dessert.

9. Oven-baked barbecued baby back ribs.
Baked potato and sliced tomato.
Last evening--not this evening, but Saturday evening--the
femme and I went again to the bar in town for supper. Yashoda, the head chef at the country club in the big city was cooking; apparently Swede and his wife are on vacation or a second honeymoon (the whole deal was explained to me, but I didn't catch it), and Yashoda has been filling in nights he doesn't have to work in his regular job.
Yashoda's kind of unusual; obviously of Nipponese derivation, his specialty is German dishes.
He's pretty short, and bows into an upside-down "L" shape when greeting people.
He wear a pince-nez, and when he cooks at the bar, rubber galoshes that are never buckled. He'd like to wear them at the country club too, because he says they help his feet, but the board members insist he can't; he has to look as what he is, a graduate of some distinguished culinary college in Malta.
I had my usual, a hamburger well-done, pressed down hard on the grill so as to squeeze out every drop of grease; the
femme had Yashoda's famous
saumagen, gequellde mit weißem kees, zwiebelkuchen, and for dessert,
pfefferkuchen.
