I’m curious what a rasolet set is? (That Kathi keeps in garage cabinet with fondue pot & other big things).
Hi Kathi and Tonya.
Been enjoying the blog and vlog for about 5 years now.
Cleaning out the refrigerator once-a-month was mentioned in this replay.
Can you please do a show about how to make do with leftovers or about-to-expire items?
For instance, when hubby brought home a FOUR POUND bag of tortilla chips, we had Nachos, Taco Soup, some Mexican-inspired casseroles, and lots of Chilaquiles (eggs scrambled with salsa and broken tortilla chips.)
Eggs about to expire? Deviled eggs. Stale bread? French Toast. Veggies looking not so sharp? Stir Fry. I would love to hear other subscribers’ ideas especially with leftover turkey after Thanksgiving (Turkey Taco Soup, Turkey Pot Pie….)
