I've been taking care of my 3 month old granddaughter and she is unhappy if her mother didn't pump the correct amount of milk for her feedings. Can you imagine not having enough food for your children or babies?!!Evelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17824964122794535252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-52447888125711774302016-10-07T06:04:12.724+02:002016-10-07T06:04:12.724+02:00This all looks delicious.

I had an uncle in N.C. who wouldn't eat seafood because he said that was all they had to eat in the 1930s -- fish, oysters, clams, mussels... He was disgusted by all that.Ken Broadhursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04430899802705818716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-73096880842177420272016-10-06T13:11:25.600+02:002016-10-06T13:11:25.600+02:00Oooh, I'll bet that broth is tasty.

But I think the northern French/Belgian "hochepot" is pretty close to this, though "hodge-podge/hotch-potch" might be more related to the Dutch/Flemish "hutspot", which is mashed potatoes and carrots and such like, usually with a sausage or piece of braised meat.Autolycushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17642868944400656922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-47812097796021798612016-10-06T12:00:40.384+02:002016-10-06T12:00:40.384+02:00I'm surprised that you didn't mention the ...I'm surprised that you didn't mention the rutabagas.
