The Barnraising

[caitlincares]

New around these parts.

I consider myself Christian first, Protestant second,
and then whatever church that is preaching and living by the Bible.

For about the last 15 years I have attended/visited mostly Baptist/Anabaptist churches which have
included Independent Baptist, Conservative Baptist, and Mennonite.

I have been hanging out in the "reformed" theology congregational forum.
Thought it was about time I headed over here to check in.

Howdy all. I wouldn't mind some of that tea, sans milk . But wait a minute, something seems to be missing here. A bunch of Baptists gathered together and no food???

 

[Busybee]

No milk in my tea, just sugar and good ole ice .

How about a heaping plate of chicken and dressing. Yummmmy! With some sweet potatoes and green beans on the side!! Delicious Mrs Shuberts rolls to top it off.

Can ya tell I'm hungry? Speakin' of hungry, let me go cook before my husband turns canibalistic in here

that food looks awesome!!!!!

I guess I just realized that I was hungry!!!!

I have never added milk to my ice tea, but I usually don't add mil to my tea either. Sweet Tea is a favorite of mine. I drank it first when visiting my brother in SC, and have loved it ever since!!!

Umm... yeah, I think so, a GMI tag...pictures of the Urals, umm... yeah, OK, sure... no.

Wait, wait...no.

I think I can figure it out. I will just practice and preview my posts until I get it. But I don't have any pictures of the Urals.

I have to cook a church supper for about 30 people Sunday night. I'm afraid I've gotten in a rut. Anybody have any suggestions for a menu?

 

[2Timothy2]

@@Paul@@, I think I got it, muchas gracias, amigo. But I will have to wait 'till I get to 100 posts.

Crazy Liz,

Here's what I'd do for a quick and easy meal:
Ham, potato casserole, green beans, salad, bread, and cobbler for dessert.

I'd just slice the ham and put some pineapple slices and a lil bit of brown sugar on top and bake it at the same time as the potato casserole (http://southernfood.about.com/library/recsbb/blbb711.htm). Cook some green beans, put a salad together, put out the bread or rolls (along with butter and jam), and the cobbler (http://www.cbt.net/dedwards/peach_cobbler.htm) can be cooked earlier in the day if you want, and there ya go!

 

[momof4angels]

are you cooking the whole dinner by yourself, or just a dish in it?

My favorite is a beef soup/stew. Very filling, has most of everything in it, and easy to boot. Can't get any better than that.

My votes for Hamburger Helper!!

Makes a GREEEAAATTT meal!!

I'll be cooking the whole dinner this time, but I can get help with the prep work, like chopping vegetables, if I need it.

I've done different soups a couple of times, and they like it a lot - especially with my homemade sourdough rye bread. I was kind of hoping to do something a little more special this time, though, because it will be a kickoff for the fall.

I've never even made them a recipe with a can of soup in it. They are spoiled. Everything homemade, except I sometimes buy bread or dessert.

Look at my posts in the recipe exchange to get an idea what kinds of things I usually make.

I was thinking about maybe barbecuing a turkey. That would be a little bit of a logistical problem, though, since I'd have to do the grilling at home, and have other church responsibilities in the morning that will prevent me from going to the early service. Unless I come up with a better idea, I'll be in a dilemma about whether to skip the morning service altogether.

Have any of you ever barbecued a split turkey? I split chickens to barbecue them. I wonder if I could do the same thing with a turkey? That might solve my time problem.

Guess that's a question for the recipe forum.

Thanks, guys! Keep the ideas coming!

Goodness!...then I guess you aren't exactly looking for "quick and easy" are ya?! I can get a meal together if I have to, but quick and easy is definitely how I like to go about it. The barbecued turkey sounds great! Let us know what you decided on! Good luck and God bless!
