Mushroom Dressing – ETC-ETS
This recipe for mushroom dressing is an adaptation of our traditional holiday dressing. It is changed to be easy to chew and easy to swallow. The main changes are that only ingredients that can be cooked soft are included, they are chopped quite small and cooked longer than usual to render everything soft. The texture…… Continue reading Mushroom Dressing – ETC-ETS
Salmon Patties – ETC-ETS
Salmon patties are a delightful treat. This recipe is a slight variant on the recipe that comes on the label of the brand of canned salmon we usually buy. The can lists 350 mg of sodium for a third of the can’s contents. Since this recipe yields six nice patties, the salt content will be…… Continue reading Salmon Patties – ETC-ETS
Mosaic
Mosaic based on a kaleidoodle – based on an abstract “a-major” – based on a photomanipulation of a photograph. See, I go to a lot of trouble to bring art to you. Mosaic

Bridge
Bridge A small contribution to Becky’s square image challenge, specifically the “Geometry of Bridges”. Normally I shy away from square images. They don’t fit well into the themes of my sites. My posts start with a “featured image” nearly full screen width. The viewer can’t see all of a square image and has to scroll…… Continue reading Bridge
Roti Chicken – ETS-ETS
A pleasant chicken entree that is easy to chew and easy to swallow is readily made from a grocery store rotisserie chicken. Remove the meat from the bones and also remove the skin. Put the chicken pieces into a casserole dish and pour about a half cup of unsalted chicken broth over the chicken meat.…… Continue reading Roti Chicken – ETS-ETS
Sweet Potato Casserole – ETC-ETS
This version of our sweet potato casserole has been adopted so it is easy to chew and easy to swallow. Rather than a pecan crust a layer of finely ground pecans forms a soft topping. Ingredients 3 to 4 sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed 2 eggs, beaten 1/2 cup light brown sugar 1/2 cup milk…… Continue reading Sweet Potato Casserole – ETC-ETS
Squash Broccoli Casserole – ETC-ETS
Recently it became necessary to consider “easy to chew – easy to swallow” in addition to low salt for our culinary creations. Our traditional recipes required some modifications to comply with these needs. One perennial favorite, squash casserole, has been under some development. Here is the latest version. It calls for the ingredients to be…… Continue reading Squash Broccoli Casserole – ETC-ETS

Gallery Window Norcross Gallery & Studios is housed in a plain old building. What is significant, to me at least, is the photography exhibit inside. I am proud that three of my photos were accepted and one of them is right inside the front door (the juggler). You may already have seen my post Norcross…… Continue reading Monday Window – 241209

Glowing Computers Way back in 2011 I assembled a computer from parts purchased at a local store. It worked well for many years, but now no longer does. Here is a photo of the parts: Computer to be The case, as you can see, was plain with no adornments, the side panels were just black-painted…… Continue reading Monday Window – 241118

Flowers by a Window It all started when the patient next door completed the stay at the rehab center and donated a bouquet of flowers to us. Then other flowers seemed like interesting photo subjects. Last week I already showed an artistic rendering of one of these photos. Here it is again. Flowers by a…… Continue reading Monday Window – 241021

Last of Chamblee Drive-by Finally we come to the end of my Chamblee drive-by photography set. At the top of the city, along Peachtree Boulevard, there are what seems like dozens of car dealerships. Just about any brand is represented. I photographed just two of them. In drive-by photography one of the hazards is street…… Continue reading Monday Window – 241007

Still driving through Chamblee We are not finished yet with our drive-by photography tour of Chamblee, but we are on our way back. Here we are on Peachtree Boulevard, no longer on Peachtree Road. Don’t let that confuse you. In the Atlanta area there are dozens, if not hundreds, or streets bearing the peachtree name.…… Continue reading Monday Window – 240923
