Beauty shop talk....and chicken talk!

Not much going on today. I did go get my haircut this morning as my hair was way too long and unruly and dry at the ends. Im low maintenance and only get my haircut about 2-3 times a year. A good haircut will still look good after a coupla months. When she got done my head felt 20lbs lighter and my hair felt so much healthier. My hairdresser is awesome. I dont care about the latest hairstyles or anything of that sort. This was my second haircut of the year so I may or may not get another haircut before Dec. 31. My last haircut was I think in Feb. or March.

On a different note, I had been craving my late Grammas awesome chicken and gravy for sometime. That was my most favorite dish that she made. I watched her make it a million times since I was a kid but trying to duplicate your Gramma's awesome cooking is some feat. I did my best but something was missing and I dont know what. I get frazzled when I make gravy but I sure love a lil thickness in muh gravy. Anyway, the turnout was good but I will have to keep trying and trying. I realize that to perfect it to taste like hers may take years and years but I could still taste some of her cooking in it and I was happy with that. Didnt have any pinto beans made(which Im making now)so I cheated with pork and beans from a can, a few tortillas and a beverage and you're good to go. I enclosed a pic to give those friends I had mentioned this to an idea of what it looks like. Oh yeah, I used chicken thighs cause its what I had. You can click on the pic to enlarge it.


Well, thats it for now and thanks fer stopping by this lil place o' mine. Until next time, see you in the backroads.
