Dinning Alone

Next time YOU do dishes! I know he said we could both use my comp but I dont want to get us both banned if I screw up like I did this afternoon.

Tonights dinner is just a small spinach salad and "Salad creame" (its something I got very hooked on in England, its made by Heinz) Its sweet and really yummy. I splurge once a month and buy it in the specialty section of Krogers. 5 bucks is well worth it

you mean Salad cream?, that stuff tastes Manko Barasi (well not very nice, it's a soccer play pun)...could be something else, but I know you don't have Brown Sauce (HP Preferably...although they've been taken over by Heinz too )...I think it's called AJ's Steak sauce over there, you should try it...it's good with everything!!.

Not sure about the hockey pun LOL but I LOVE Heinz Salad creame I think we call it A-1 steak sauce and it has to much of a bite for me. (yall have some very strange smilies here I best get to the store.........*HUGS*

I am right, it's the stuff your thinking of, and there's no extra E, it's just salad cream, come's in loads of brands. But it is virtually unkown in the US or Canada. A1 Steak sauce is soft, soft I tell ya!!!.

REAL brown sauce has got a heck of a kick to it!...Daddy's brown sauce is the best for a bit of zing, I did try some A1 in Minneappolis, not that much of a fan, it's the nearest you get to brown sauce, but it's tripe, really.

I personally dont like salad cream, can't abide the extra vinegary twang to what is essentially mayo, but different strokes and all that. I'm surpised you didn't get hooked on decent chocolate (I wont say real, cus half the EU would disagree with me), well chocolate that isnt as bland as hershey's, or the hershey made cadbury's up in Canada (was I shocked when I tasted Cadbury's in Toronto?....heck yes.

(oh and sorry, that was a soccer pun, me and my friends call anything bad, manko barasi, after the Brazillian soccer star Franko Barasi, basically calling it mank, horrible etc..)

Venus De Millo Soup

1/2 hamburger
1/2 chirico (or italian)
1 can stewed tomatoes
4 cans water
2 envelope beefy onion soup mix (lipton)
1 frozen mixed veggies
3/4c orzo maccaoni

brown meat, add stewed tomatoes, soup mix, water. Bring to a boil add veggies and orzo cook on low 1 hour.

Does great in freezer ( IF you dont eat it ALL!!!)

This is Sissy's recipe tastes FANTASTIC!!!!


I just made the venus de milo soup in the crock. If your cooking it in the crock DONT add the Orzo til Id say about 30 minutes from the end. It basically thickens if you put it all together at the beginning. Live and Learn eh?

Im home and I'll be posting from my own computer from now on. I had been posting from the library but my Sister and Feronia and I have talked it out and theres no need to be scared of anything or anyone. Im not doing anything wrong I didnt do anything wrong before but running back and forth to the library while Feronia uses my comp is stressing me so we are both going to use my comp. I already asked premission from the powers that be and I was told it was ok.

Im just getting home after dogsitting again for 3 days. I took advantage of her kitchen and baked some cookies (butterscoth morsels, choclate chip and oatmeal/cranraison) and made wine jelly with plum wine for gifts for Yule. I made liver and onions for me but couldnt manage to eat it. Holidays suck dining alone.

Wine Jelly

3 cups sugar
2 cups wine (I used plum wine......as Rachel Ray would say "Yummo")
1/2 6 oz bottle liquid fruit pectin

Paraffin

Measure sugar and wine into top of a double boiler: mix well. Place over but not touching rapidly boiling water. Stir til sugar is desolved. 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat. At once stir in fruit pectin and stir (gently) well. Skim off foam if necessary. (if you stir gentlt there wont be any) Place a metal spoon in hot sterilized wine glass (to prevent glass from breaking) Quickly pour hot jelly into glass to within 1/8 inch from top. Remove spoon. Cover at once with 1/8 inch hot paraffin. repeat with 5 more glasses.

Heres a little tip, if you have a migrain try a bit of dark choclate to get rid of it. If your allergic like I am it wont work lol so I try a guiness before I reach for the hard meds. Sometimes it works........not tonight.

 

[Jay]

I try a guiness

Try 3 or 4 of them...
