roasted hen with salad - that IS healthy eatin! congratulations, set and ehbeth. see? it was painless and even tasty.
I got no choice, the Sweetiepie Girl is a little big bully . . .
A very close friend of mine totally ignored his vegetables. He wanted to eat steaks and gravy and the like, skipping breakfast and eating things like baloney sandwiches for lunch. It put him in the hospital close to a week. He now says he is a believer. Hope he sticks with the new diet.
What put him in the hospital?
keep eating your steaks and burgers and you'll see, gus.
i like hospitals though. when i had my tonsils out i got to stay about 5 days, it was excellent. except for the pain. had a great roommate, everybody came to visit, it was like heaven on earth.
I sometimes wonder about the real health benefits of foods that should have all those vitamins & minerals, etc.... I mean, so many foods have been tampered with: tomatoes that no longer taste like tomatoes & have thicker skins, carrots that don't have as much taste as they should, but look good .... You know what I mean. Unless one chooses exclusively organic vegetables & fruit, I'm wondering if the nutrient value has been diminished in many of these "healthy" foods we eat?
What happens if you rub tumeric on your torpedo?

Nosey, ain'tcha . . .
Last night we had fusilli in a thick tomato sauce with mild italian sausage, onion, garlic, spices--all that good junk. We had eaten almost all the sausage, so the left-over pasta and t-sauce were tonight's side dish.
We had a salad, cukes (eBeth don't eat 'em, i got 'em all), cherry tomatoes, shredded cheddar, bacon bits and radiccio on a bed of romaine and spinach leaves.
For the main course, i roasted a hen. Fattest damned hen i've ever seen. When i was a child, we raised our own chickens, so we had good ones for a meal--but this was till the fattest damned hen i've ever seen. I roasted it in carrot and apple juice with about 15-20 unpeeled garlic cloves, and crossed two strips of bacon over the breast to keep it moist--it took more than an hour and half, one hour at 350, and half an hour at 450. When we roast a chicken like this, i like to take the leg quarters and leave the wings and breasts for eBeth. So, normally, i get two legs and two thighs. I had one leg quarter--one leg, one thigh--and i'm stuffed. It'll have to wait until tomorrow to finish it.
Fattest damned roasting hen i've ever seen . . .
This all sounds sooooooooooooooooooo good!

That is SO warped, Dag!
Betcha like funerals, too! All that food! All those visitors!
Oh yeah, an half of 'em so glum, there's more food for the irreverant ! ! !
Plus the occasional cannibal horrified at the waste of good meat.
Set and ebeth, I confess. After your description of the fat hen, I got naked.
As I see it, I had no choice; it was YOUR fault. Pornocooking, wow.
Ooooooooo . . . it war so good . . . i been pickin' at the carcasse today . . .
Stop, Stop, I can't stand it!
funerals are interesting for another reason, not so much for the 'good vibe', as for the fashion. how many creations are good looking in black? what kinds of hats are in fashion and where did they get them? is there a guy standing near a parked black car, leaning on a window, wearing a hat, sunglasses and a long black coat like in the movies? who of the present have slept with the deceased (ok, that only if that's not a funeral of anyone i know well)...

My sister was in the hospital in Tonga for about five days. A case of the Dengue Fever. She wasn't too thrilled with her stay. She said the first day there she thought she was imagining things when she saw a cat walk by, but, sure enough, there were cats in the hospital, as well as a plethora of lizards.
Boy has this thread unraveled.
Howsabout some baked beans with chipotle turkey sausage?
