Today is my birthday and it is the middle of summer. I think this will be my birthday supper. It sounds so good.

Valerie – I made a double batch yesterday and slopped up a nice, hearty breakfast for twelve here. Hopefully kept the crew fueled up for a good day of snowmobiling.

Kay – great idea to make green chili gravy. With or without meat, chilis have enough wonderful flavor to carry their own, and make a great rich meal. Thanks for the idea! Save travels to LC. If you’re there today, you really do risk being snowed in. It’s coming down good again…

Since my kids are vegetarians, I make a green chili gravy. But then I use green chilis in a lot of things.
A little extra vitamin C never hurts.
I hope to be coming to Lake City soon. I really wish it would snow me in there and not let me come back.

They look so good!! I love the heart shape too.
Makes me hungry just looking at this post! I can even think of the smell when mom is making them at castleview! It is one of the smells that actually wakes my brother up… and not even a smoke detector does that! ha.

Janice, thanks, such a warm note, and I agree, good in some ways, and in others, we are so lucky for the changes. But fresh butter, blackberry jam… you got me there! There are some things that definatly can not be replaced! What I would do (will do?) for a dairy cow again…

And Al – Up here, you got to eat more. Hearty, hot breakfasts are a requirement. The altitude burns them off for us. Good excuse, I know… Aren’t we lucky?

So far, it’s proving to be a “good” winter – good snow pack, which should make for a healthy summer on the mountain and in the river. I know that can change in a flash with July rains, or lack there of, but for now, I’m counting on a healthy summer up here.

And I bet this still won’t be the summer I learn to fish yet.

Tight lines…

Gin,

Now you are talking my stomach language. WOW!!!!

All I had this morning was coffee, wheat toast, and a banana. Bob and Forrest are living high, wide and handsome today.

When do Bob and Forrest think snowmobiling will be a Winter Olympic sport?

How much snow total have you had so far this winter? I am trying to judge water in the streams come August.

Thanks.

Biscuits and gravy ,one of my favorite meals. They work for any meal, especially in the winter, and when it’s sausage gravy , even better. I can smell thoes biscuits now. When I was a kid , a long time ago, my mother made biscuits every morning, a big pan full. They were the best in the world. Some times we had white gravy and sometime we had redeye gravy. Home made butter, and homemade blackberry jam. Oh for the good ole days, in some things ,not all. Hope for you a beautiful day. Janice
