My honey she's making Minestrone soup-- that is as instant as I can get.

Mmm.

Stop by anytime, Sun.

Something NOT delicious

the lazy man pierogi at the local Greek deli...yes..I know...the GREEK part shoulda clued me in that their POLISH food wouldn't be all that good. But I paid for something that I can cook better myself. And that irks me more than a lil bit....

It didn't even have saurkraut in it!!! Im appalled....

No clue...it was bland...tasted vaguely cheesy...had meat in it....blech...i think they just shredded cabbage and put it in....

Mines is soooo much better. I even make it into a casserole...almost like a reuben...

Mmmmmmmmmm... I am beginning to recover from gardening when the wind chill is down to 25 *-4 C, Urs! Am I nuts?!* because I mulled some cider.

It's funny how things which were always so exotic to me when I was growing up in the desert turn out to be so doggoned simple. I mulled it in the microwave in a covered bowl.

1 quart cider, room temperature
6 cinnamon sticks (broke them in half)
a few allspice berries
a few anise seeds
then a teabag with nutmeg, cloves, ginger--less than half a teaspoon of any of them, less than a quarter teaspoon ginger

I heated it 7 minutes on high and 10 more minutes on medium. It's about as hot as coffee... and not so exotic at all. But ohhh so good on a freezing cold day! My insides are starting to thaw.

Great idea! Micro Mulled cider! You would do well to publish articles, you have so many great ideas.

I love good cider.

That is the worst thing I have heard in a while.

Yuch. Poor you.

A Reuben casserole would be right up my ally. Feel free to send one to me. I don't mind Reuben is my favorite sandwich though sometimes I make it with Turkey. One time I made it with fake sliced Turkey. Not bad.

How is that place in business with food that bad?

Mmmm Reuben is one of my fav sandwiches too. Someone turned me onto it recently in the past few years. I like fresh deli bread toasted then some corned beef and brisket with swiss cheese add some thousand island a bit of mustard and sauerkraut and you have yourself a delish sammich!

happy Monday everybody. Any exciting food recipes ya'll are up to this week? Any thing brewing for Xmas?

Tonight I'm making some ground beef and bean green chili burritos with diced onions and tomatoes and some shredded cheddar.

I want to make some pumpkin emapanadas and some sugar cookies for xmas!

I will stick to the ones I know and love. I tried the Florida variety ONCE and never ever again....like ever. It was gross and watery. They are much bigger than the haas ones...but size isn't everything....really it isn't.

Ummmm..yeah.

So, I like the Hass variety and the Bacon, the one on the left. The Hass is featured in the link. The seed is darker.
