The Husband Search

Terry, I have good news. I found this on the Farmer's Almanac website under "Folklore." Yes, there's hope for us, and yes, I have too much time on my hands!!! ? Husband Search According to some tales, if, on Halloween night, a girl puts a sprig of rosemary and a silver coin under her pillow, she will see her future husband in a dream. Now, with my luck, the silver coin will make my skin turn green and the rosemary will actually be poison ivy. I don't know that I've ever dreamed of my future husband, but I HAVE dreamed of the Colonel wearing red, footed-pj's!!! Does that count???!!! BTW, I found a recipe for Red Lobster's Cheddar Bay Biscuits - might have to give them a try for Halloween. Tia

I'd settle for having the future husband under the pillow and dreaming about the silver coin/rosemary...hehe LOL@the colonel...was he wearing Santa hat? Oh cool about the cheddar biscuits...yummy! I had something good last week in Williamsburg I had THE BEST cornbread at this one place we ate at..it was Sweet Potato Cornbread. You almost couldn't taste the sweet potato (it wouldn't have mattered either way because i love sweet potatoes) but the cornbread was so moist and slightly sweet. I was thinking about looking for a recipe for that for next time I make chili. With the weather cooling off, it could be anytime now. T

Nope, no Santa hat!! He laughed when I told him about it and said, "Was I sleeping?" and when I told him no, he said, "Well, I'm glad I was awake," and I said, "And I'm glad you were dressed!!!" If you had the husband under the pillow, that would probably mean that you were holding the pillow over him!!!! I LOVE sweet potatoes, too and that cornbread sounds yummy. Since I'm off next week, I want to cook, cook, cook, but first I have to clean, clean, clean. Actually, in cook, cook, cook, you can insert shop wherever necessary! T.

BTW, I found this for you (I'm SUCH a good Tia): www.allrecipes.com Sweet Potato Corn Bread Have fun - save me a piece! Tia

Hmm...yummy. Hey, do ya want me to bring that on Halloween? That way you're not doing cornbread (which I think you mentioned at some point) and the cheesy biscuits? Let me know. Oh hey....I didn't say what part of said hubby would be under the pillow....hehehe. T

Terry, Check out Super Fresh for corn bread. They have the BEST pre-made corn bread. Very moist and sweet too. My mother buys it all the time, but it can be hard to find because it goes fast. Also, Safeway has a ChiChi's corn cake mix that is really good. I prefer corn cake to corn bread. It's softer and scoopable. Heather

BUT...does it say we'll REMEMBER our dream?? THAT'S the question!!

Honey - My dreams are soooo weird I ALWAYS remember them! I fear he's always going to be better in the dream than in real life, though!!!! Tia
