ANYTHING left over was deftly used. Corn & bread crumb & burger casserole? Sure. I used to like lumpy mashed potatoes better too. ~MaryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768077704812123238.post-4110918290757967882009-02-09T10:00:00.000-05:002009-02-09T10:00:00.000-05:00Your grandma sounds like mine, at least in the coo...Your grandma sounds like mine, at least in the cooking department. She's famous in our family for her bad cooking. She was certainly not the stereotypical grandma, I don't even think mine baked. Everything was always overcooked. I managed to insult both my mom and grandma once with one sentence. I was eating mashed potatoes at Grandma's house in Houston, PA, and apparently they didn't taste very good to me. I told everyone at the table, "I like Mommy's lumpy mashed potatoes better." Everyone laughed, Grandma and Mom were both embarrassed, and I realized I said something wrong and learned to keep my opinions about Grandma's cooking to myself :)Cheriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04625105591596765120noreply@blogger.com
