Things Are Better Today!

I have discovered mushroom and cheese pie! MY LIFE IS FULFILLED.

Also, I think I accidentally made Plague Cookies yesterday. I thought I was making a fantastic batch of sugar cookies,* but this morning I woke up with THE PLAGUE. Sore throat, sore eyes, and don’t even ask about the nose. I am just hoping no plague found its way into the delicious cookies.

Off to make tea and see if there’s any mushroom and cheese pie left! I may have the plague, but today, life is good.


*Tragically colorless, however. We will have to get to the store for food coloring for the next batch, because there is nothing more fun than dividing the frosting you’ve made into small bowls and colorizing it. This was just one of the many Early Educational Activities Mom came up with when we were small. Inevitably we would decide to experiment with mixing ALL THE COLORS, resulting in a whole lot of what Dad called “earth-tone cookies.”

It is from a medieval cookbook I got from the library, but Mom and I added onions. Slice onions and mushrooms, saute, then mix them up with a few tablespoons of olive oil, half a teaspoon of mustard powder, salt, pepper, and a WHOLE LOT of cheddar cheese. We just used a storebought double crust smeared with beaten egg. Then bake for about 25 minutes at 400 degrees.

Stupid germs. They do get around.

Nice and easy, and sounds Delicious! I'll probably try that next time I go over to my Mom's. I don't have any Pie Pans here, and my oven kind of sucks.

Both my Mom and I can make really good Pie Dough, but it's such a pain that we just get Pilsbury instead. The difference between that and homemade is so not worth the extra effort.
