When I was young sometimes we had to eat what ever we could get, my mom was great for coming up with ideas. One of my favs is her tomatoe juice and noodles.She would use home canned tomatoe juice and any noodles she would have handy.Cook the noodles,drain them, pour in the tomatoe juice heat up and add a tb. of butter and salt and pepper.I fix it now for my kids, and they love it.It's good on cold days .

This sounds like something I will have to try, I think my youngest daughter would really emjoy it. When I was younger, my mother use to bake a lot. One of the things she made quite often was biscuits. However my mom always baked (and still does) enough food to feed an army. So quite often the biscuits would not all get eaten in a day or so. By the third day, if they weren't all gone, she would fry them up in molasses. It was soooo good! I have tried it myself, but unfortunately haven't been able to master the technique of not getting the molasses to candy on me :(
