No i never asked her about her recipes, probably because i don't make so much fancy food to my self.

I used recipe 1 and followed it pretty closely and we both thought it turned out great. I even added the nutmeg which I typically omit as I don't like it. I will update this thread or post a new one regarding 1 or 2 small changes I made.
I will go ahead and say now that 3 TBS of flour to a cup of cream is way to much. I had to cut it with milk to thin it down. As we ate some with gravy and some without I will even go so far as to say just make your standard milk gravy + the beef stock (for me that is 50/50 water and milk) as the sauce. The cream adds a lot of calories and cost to what could be an inexpensive great dish.
DW ate some of the cold, sauce-less patties for breakfast and certified them as still good. I will taste one later and share my opinion.
Last night we had, I made, the most decadent carrot cake I have ever eaten. Nothing healthy about it. There was no milk or water just oil, eggs and crushed pineapple for moisture.

Haven't had carrot cake in ages. Is the recipe online somewhere?
Mom brought a Chocolate Zucchini loaf over yesterday.
My contribution of something different for today: Homemade Mango Salsa. One of our Filipino friends' wives makes something like this when there is a get together (sans Jalapeño).

It is right here. Warning you need a deep 9 inch pan. I wound up making a big one and a little one from a single batch size. Did not have corn oil used soybean oil. Cheated and used a canned cream cheese icing. I can't make it for the same $.

Some use various other meats, and seasoning, but we just use ground beef and basic seasoning like salt pepper etc. If you like it with a little "heat", add some crushed chili peppers or cayenne.

Cool with a lot of rain today, so baked ziti is on the menu for tonight. Two casseroles, one for tonight, and one to freeze for another night.
