If you like eating dead pig, tonight would be the night to just drop by my place. The pork roast I bought was too big for my slow-cooker, so now I have a garlicky pork roast in the oven, and the other half in the slow-cooker with sauerkraut, onions, and apples.

I think the last time I cooked this much meat, I was feeding a birthday party full of people.

Oy.

Well, at least I made my mom happy by calling her for cooking advice. She loves that shit.

Aaaak! I'm 3000 miles away! Please enjoy for me. Sounds wonderful!

Either it was silly of me to make meat when you're that far away, or silly of you to be that far away when I'm making meat. :-)

But I didn't know you were going to make meat. Besides, my boss made me do it!

Dammit! Six hours over the hill to get to you and no money for gas.

Sounds nummy, though.

Mmmmm, garlic and dead pig, the peanut butter and jelly of the pork world.

My mom use to love when I called her for cooking info too. Because I had an older sister that loved to cook (and hated doing anything outside in the "dirt"), she became the designated Mom's helper and I was Dad's helper. This lead my mom to believe I never learned anything about cooking and that I would starve to death and take any "husband" with me, if I could even catch one in the first place - I mean how could I get to a man's heart if not through his stomach. (I never told her there was a quicker way *nudge, nudge, wink, wink*.) So when I would call her for advice, even when I was well into my 40's, it activated her instinct to pass on the "woman skills". It also made her feel like I still needed her; like I ever, to this day, stopped needing my mom.
