    This would also be fun to bring to your in-laws over the holidays. Why waste time baking when you could bring a meal in a bucket!

    That’s so typical; just because I’m too afraid to leave the house, I have to eat bizarre freeze-dried rations. Where’s my “cordon bleu in a can”, eh?

    Agorophobics unite! We have nothing to fear but, well, the entire outside world…

    @Wayne:
    Given my mother-in-law and her sister keep saying my turkey is “too wet” (they were raised on overcooked, dry turkey), that might be a good idea for next Thanksgiving for them.
