White Gravy

I was stuck in the routine of packaged powder gravy and canned biscuits… . a horror story now that I look back. I decided if I was going to be a good old fashioned cook, I better master this. I did! EASILY! This gravy is virtually no-fail… unless you scorch it of course,then you may as well dump it out, worsh your pan and start over. (; team this awesome gravy up with that amazing biscuit recipe I posted, and you're sure to win everyone over!
This recipe is also MORE Amazing if you cook sausage first THEN use your grease from it to make your rue! (That may not be quite enough grease, so adding oil would probably be necessary). When your gravy is finished, add the sausage into it! YUMMO!

I love ❤ cooking! I hate the dishes tho(; .. Southern-home cooking is my favorite! My favorite cuisines to eat are Mexican, Thai, Japanese, and Chinese. You can never go wrong with Italian either! I rarely measure anything. I just throw it into a bowl, mix, and go! Butter is a very important main-ingredient. Remember that!I am married. My husband's name is Jacob. We have a mountain lion, ahem… I mean large tabby cat 😽 who is a large fatty named Charles. A long-haired tuxedo cat 😽 who thinks she is queen of the world 🌎, named Rita. We also have a delightful french bulldog of which we call our warthog for all of her snorty- replies, named Patty. They get to eat 🍴 all leftovers. So they get to enjoy the recipes I try as well! My cats loved the chicken 🍗 salad leftovers!:) My husband is quite the character too! He calls me mrs potato 🍠 head. Hence the potato 🍠 head lady. ~ I live in small-town arkansas and am a Jesus lovin girl! He's number 1 in my life. I hope you enjoy my recipes. Remember, most of everything will be approximate measurements. Toodles for now!
