Our Hazel was really something in the kichen. She made it hum so well she made Julia Child look like Lisa Douglas lol.

If you could have Hazel come by and whip up a full course gourmet meal what would you propose?

Here's my fantasy

Shrimp cocktail with Hazel's signature cocktail sauce

Lobster Thermador

Caesar Salad with Hazel's homemade garlic croutons

Parker House Rolls baked from scratch with the best creamery butter Hazel could conjure up

Baked Alaska

Coffee

Passionfruit flavored seltzer

NOW WHAT'S YOUR fantasy gourmet meal by Hazel?

I'd rather her make an all American comfort food type meal ! ;) Like meatloaf, fried chicken,mashed potatoes,corn, green beans !! Apple Pie or chocolate cake for desert !!! :happyface

Or a hearty breakfast: French toast, sausage,coffee !!;) :happyface

First, I’d love to try Hazel’s brownies. After that I’m curious about her cheese horse doovers, or those cheese puff things she made. Her beef stroganoff sounds delicious too. I’d even like to try her Garlic horse doovers that she fed Mr. B & “Flirty Gertie” in the episode where she thought Mr. B was going to have a little fling.

LOL this thread is making me hungry!

Dessert for me would definitely be an enormous "slab" of pecan pie with whipped cream. That would be worthy of giving Hazel "a big smack (kiss)," as she would say.

This is from the March/April 2017 issue of The Saturday Evening Post.

I think I'd like dibs on those brownies.

I'd like one of her brownies (sans nuts, please) also, but only one...I don't want to look like Mr. Griffin.

I think I'd take a pass on her prune pie (which she told the snotty couple who came to dinner on the wrong Saturday was her specialty), but I'll give the beef stew a go.

For breakfast, I think I'll try some of your pancakes, blueberry, if you please.

Good to see this old thread revived. Gives me another thought, I'd love to have some of Hazel's Peach Cobbler like she made in the Thanksgiving episode where Mr. Griffin requested it. By the way, related to another thread, this Thanksgiving episode's end is always cut but on the commercial DVD you see the family and Mr. Griffin along with Lief Erickson and wife Alice Mitchell all enjoying the Peach Cobbler and seconds for Mr. Griffin. :lol:
