Think I'll sit down here for a bit... (6)

Well, Rad, what do you expect in the kitchen?

I love to cook my pasta sauce from scratch. White or red, doesn't matter. I especially like making Spagetti sauce though. Mine takes around six to seven hours to make. Then I put it into the fridge overnight. Don't ask me why, but it seems to make it better that way. People are always surprised at my sauce though. It has chunks of Bell Peppers, tomatoes, onion, olives, mushrooms and meat of course. It's kinda like a stew in a tomatoe sauce base, really.

Using a white sauce, I like to add baby carrots and sometimes peas, for french country chicken. That was my mother's favourite. I haven't made it in years.

It's the least I can do.

Allrighty then, go wait by your mailbox

Eww..meatballs..yuck! Let alone MOLDY meatballs..

I don't make moldy meatballs... (I just wanted to watch the little drama queen again )

Both sauces sound delish

Glad I could oblige.

Glad I could oblige.

Thank you



Now I wonder what kind of soup will show up tonight for soup and bread supper...

When it was my turn to bring soup -two weeks ago, I made alpahabet soup

 

[latebloomer]

Sounds good! Wonder what they had at church tonight. Had to work & couldn't go.

Seajoy, how's that new archeology Bible? I've seen it at Walmart, looks interesting.

 

[porterross]

I had to work, too.

 

[filosofer]

I had to work, too.

Creatively, too, no doubt.

I had a rolled meat dish that was made from three finely shaved types of meat. Yum.

We knew an Italian cook many years ago and she invited us to her house for a taste experience. I don't remember every thing that she cooked but she asked us an odd question. She wanted to know if we wanted it served traditional Italian style. Then she explained that traditionally it was not served on plates but dumped in the middle of the table. Everybody took what they wanted with no plates. We said no!

 

[RadMan]

Oh dirn--I forgot lenten services.

 

[porterross]

Creatively, too, no doubt.

As long as it's legal and ethical, it's all good.

Well, WHAT part of Italy do they do that???

that sorta thing is rather common in southern Europe. Disgusting

 

[latebloomer]

Does the food get dumped directly on the table, or is it on a platter or big bowl or something? It sounds like it would be a real mess to clean up the table after the meal was over.

 

[dinkime]

soup supper & church tonight -- they had leftover bbq from an event on sunday, so that was nice & different!

Seajoy, did you get your special lamp yet? I heard on the radio this morning that 74% of northern latitude adults are Vitamin D deficient by February, due to lack of sunshine, leading to immune deficiencies among other things. They said that rickets in children are making a comeback. No wonder my mother always bundled us up and sent us outside every day for fresh air. (She dressed us in my dad's worn out insulated coveralls, with the legs cut off at the knees. They were gray so she called them our baby elephant suits.) My husband has switched a lot of our light bulbs to the "daylight" type of compact flourescents. They make a world of difference at our house.
