Kugel (FIAR Cookbook... still good six years later!!

[Heather (WI)]

Since I just realized that our FIAR Cookbook will cover our upcoming BYFIAR units, too, I got it back out last night, and we had a fun time reading through it and looking at all the photos and recipes (since we used it like a scrapbook of our FIAR cooking, like Jane suggests).

Well, dd (now 11yo) saw the recipe for "Kat Kugel" (what she named it) from Mrs. Katz and Tush, and said she remembered how good it was and asked if we could make it again now.

SO, we made it tonight, and it is just as yummy as we remembered!! :thumb:

It was cute, because when I told her we hadn't made this recipe in six years :eek:, she said, "Yeah, that was over half my life ago!!" :lol: ;)

OOps--sorry for the double post--not sure how that first one got posted before I was ready. :blush:

I made kugel this spring when we rowed Mrs. Katz and Tush, and it was not a hit. I ended up eating most of the pan all by myself. Turnips, after a week of reading Down, Down the Mountain, were not a hit either!

:lol: Laura, I hear you--we had a few that weren't favorites here, either.

I was thinking about this week, wondering if anyone else had favorites that they make again and again. I wondered about this as I made "Robert Frost's Chicken Pie" for the 6th time this year. :yum: We have a few like that.

It was funny when I looked up the recipes for Andy and the Lion, and saw that it is basically a regular in our house. I noticed that with some other stories too. We liked them so much, when rowing with the oldest, they stayed a part of the dinner rotation. I am thinking it was a little less exciting for the youngest this week because of that. :lol: At least the dessert will be a new one.

Donna, you will love it!! We used ours as a sort of scrapbook (with photos of our cooking adventures and notes about the meals), and it is SO fun to look back through it and relive all those memories--like when dd could barely see over the top of the kitchen counter (and now she's almost as tall as me). ;)
