Yesterday Addie woke up and I asked her if she wanted cereal. She thought for a minute and said “I think I’d like grits, sausage and biscuits.” I love how she says what she wants! If I didn’t want to make that, she would have been fine with cereal but I had sausage and grits and frozen biscuits. I asked her if she wanted one or two pieces of sausage and she said “I’ll start with two pieces of sausage and two biscuits and don’t forget I like cheese on my grits!” Yes, ma’am!
Since my skillets have all been used on the gas stove, they leave a black smudge on the glass top stove that I have to scrub so I brought my hot plates and have been using those with the cast iron, which will have to work til I can get the stove switched out.
This was actually my plate. Addie ate one biscuit and all her grits, left one one biscuit and both pieces of sausage. I told her I’d save it so when she got hungry, she could eat that before eating anything else. After a couple of hours, she asked me to microwave the biscuit and sausage and she ate it all.
She goes through spurts where she hardly eats anything and other times, she eats so much I wonder where she puts it all.

Judy I know you will be getting a gas stove when you get there permanently. Why not switch out your gas stove on Texas with the electric one you had there–or was it a lesser model of a gas one there–and bring your stove with you to Missouri? I know they are not inexpensive and that might help with an expense and you might get it put in faster. Just a suggestion I have been thinking of for some time now.

The one in Texas is one I bought when I was canning inside, which I won’t do again. It’s very high BTU burners and I think I’d like one with lower powered burners. Besides, everything we move costs us money. By the time we add the weight of the stove to move to MO and then we would have to rent a U-Hal to get the stove from MO back to TX, the cost wouldn’t be worth it plus, the stove in MO is white and everything in the TX house is stainless.
It would be a good idea though if a few things were different.

I think that is the way kids are. I remember when I was a kid, we were ashamed that we ate sausage and biscuits! Now you can buy them at any drive thru!!
