Hot? Cold? Both?



 

Some foods are very versatile in that they can be eaten hot or cold. Here are the ones I like:

 

Pizza – The first serving is obviously when it’s hot. Leftovers (it could happen!) can be eaten cold and I think it’s almost as enjoyable. Usually there are only a couple of slices left and not really worth the effort to heat up.

 

Fried chicken – Awesome either way. Leftover chicken is great cold, cut up for a sandwich or even added to ramen noodles. The same goes for leftover roast or ham.

 

Any kind of tea or coffee drink. Same with the booze you might put in that tea or coffee drink…

 

Meat loaf – Awesome of course with gravy, but the next day as a sandwich?? YES!!

 

Pancakes – hear me out. There have been times when I wanted a sandwich but was out of bread. Leftover pancakes work just fine.

 

Cooked cereal – haven’t done this in a long time, but my grandma would make cornmeal mush and any leftovers would be sliced up and fried with syrup on top. A couple of times I actually made some specifically to have it sliced and fried.

 

Impossible pie – I’m pretty sure I’ve shared the recipe for this before. It’s great hot from the oven, but leftovers are good cold with maybe a salad on the side.

 

If you know of any more foods that can be eaten either way, let me know.

Peeps and Blessings

 



I have the BEST peeps in the world! This latest round of ill health has really knocked me for a loop. When I finally broke down and admitted it and asked for prayers, the response was humbling. I love my peeps. I had so much support from all of you. And I know it was that along with the prayers from you all and the ones from church friends and others that got me through it all. God is good!

 

There were also a lot of blessings along with this. Yes, I was very ill. But I had the blessing of having Marv here the whole time. If he had still been working, things would have been much worse. I knew I was being taken care of. I had the “luxury” of being able to just forget about everything and stay in my recliner and watch Perry Mason reruns.

 

The biggest blessing, though, was the fact that I was NOT depressed or in despair. I have a tendency to go to the dark places when I’m sick. This time it was only physical. My mental outlook was just fine.

 

So mega thanks to everybody in my life. Friends are a true blessing. ♥
