I *CAN* Do It!!

Yesterday I was up pretty early. Made some of grandma's pie crust, then made a very yummy apple pie. That came out of the oven around 8:30 in the morning.

Then I put a beautiful chunk of smoked ham, still on the bone, in with some onion and spices to slow simmer.

Then I baked a batch of sweet corn bread.

After a while I added some chunked up red new potatoes to the ham.

About then it was time to start cleanin' the fresh green beans I picked up at the farmer's stand down the road.

When those were cleaned and snapped I took the ham out and cut it into nuggets and set the bone aside.

Finally I added the fresh green beans.

All along I kept adding some seasoning to the pot and stiring things up.

It was fabulous, if I must say so myself.

Why do I tell you all this? Because I made this entire meal without cutting or burning myself one single time. Not one additional injury was added to my repertoire.

And I'm pretty damned proud of myself, thankyouverymuch!

You see. I CAN do it!!!!!
