The prompt is YUMMY, and that brings to mind all the foods I like to make from scratch when the weather is cold.

  • Fresh Turkey roasted in my special orange butter basting sauce with home-made sausage stuffing & candied sweet potatoes
  • Pineapple Upside Down Cake – served warm – the melted brown sugar glistening
  • Chicken & Dumplings – tender boneless chicken swimming in home-made gravy with buttermilk biscuits & sliced carrots
  • Macaroni & Cheese with Barbecue Chopped Meat- Saute chopped beef or turkey, drain the fat, mix in just enough of your favorite barbecue sauce recipe to coat & mix into prepared mac & cheese. 
  • Pernil – Shoulder of Pork Roasted Spanish Style with Garlic & Adobo.  A typical ten pound shoulder spends about 6 hours in the oven at a low temperature; it melts in your mouth.
  • Swedish Meatballs – I could about oh say a bazillion of them

And while I’m at it here’s some scents I find quite YUMMY :

  • New Babies
  • Clothes Washed in Downy
  • Any Kind of Cookie Baking
  • Lavender Bubble Bath
  • Hot Dogs on the Grill
  • The beach on a crowded day – forty kinds of suntan lotion mixed with  heat and salt spray – awesome
  • Brut – my first ever boyfriend wore it – and yes, I still love it a million years later

Might as well finish up with some things that feel YUMMY:

  • New Underwear!
  • My Blue Comforter – I roll myself up in it like a burrito.
  • Clean Sheets
  • Snuggling
