  1. I use "thingers" often at home. I mean the WORD "thingers". That didn't come out right methinks. "Thingers" can mean so many things in so many situations. It is quite...er...interchangeable.
  2. Tonight we are having: Lamb Chops that we were going to have last night then my pain went haywire. So, we are having the lamb that I marinated in a whole schwack of lovely things (including orange juice, juniper berries, gin, fresh thyme and rosemary, garlic) that will have a Dijon sauce brushed on it and then covered in a yummy breadcrumb mixture...
  3. Sounds great! What did you put in it, Sora?
  4. MMMMMM! On our culinary trips we take along our coolers, of course, so will be on the lookout for scampi (which will not be the freshest as the nearest sea is about 2,500 miles away). But the combination with pineapple sounds wonderful.
  5. This is an interesting article. I know that occasional bacon makes my heart happy!
  6. LOVE this. Where on earth do you get your...uh...thingers? This bacon guy is so cute I could just pinch his fatty cheeks.
  7. I did not know that! Or if I did I had forgotten. Obviously you know your Thai curries like no other! Anyway, there is something so gratifying and therapeutic about making curries from scratch, isn't there? I made one last week. I don't know which I like better - red or green. I'd have to say both.
  8. This looks soooooooooooo darned good. Sometimes you've just got to have a great burger. And I know yours will be no ordinary burger.
  9. You are sure to love it. It will grow on you and then you will become addicted like me. Heck - once we had something similar only with blue cheese added! FANTASTIC. So, if cheese causes migraines as it used to me, go all out...
  10. Definitely not around here but when my husband takes me to the nearest city (three hours away) every two months on culinary escapes (as we call these trips) we find the lime leaves (fresh and frozen) at an Asian market. We stay in a tiny boutique hotel that is so charming. It only has about 12 rooms I think and each time you get a different one. They are...
  11. I know what you mean. Both are equally good, actually, and completely different from one another. Let us know what you decide! Short ribs should be its own food group, as bacon should be.
  12. So happy you are getting excited about Thai chicken! I have never, ever used curry powder in Thai dishes but instead make all my pastes from scratch with kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass, chiles, etc. Curry powder to Thai chicken is as authentic as Spam is to bacon. Who needs curry powder? I LAUGH in the face of curry powder.
  13. Sora, I love short ribs. The following are amongst my favourites: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Braised-Short-Ribs-with-Chocolate-and-Rosemary-233706?mbid=RF (yes, they contain chocolate, but it is sort of almost mole-ish). http://www.napastyle.com/recipe/recipe.jsp?productId=2847&parentCategoryId=614&categoryId=721&subCategoryId...
  14. Gin and juniper-marinated lamb chops with Dijon walnut crust Hasselback potatoes with lots of bay and garlic Red cabbage vinegary slaw
  15. Sounds like you are enjoying yourself on your cabana assignment. Maybe go incognito?! We need pictures for inspiration. I mean project. I mean, well, you know...
  16. It would be a great slogan. Along with the RBJ pizza bit!
  17. The snow is, well, quite abundant. Our winters are just too darned long!!! And the cabana boyz? What boyz? I have no idea what you are talking about.
  18. Wow - thanks for making my day with the compliments! It feels sooooo good to be loved. I am adamant that we take control of our own health (as much as we can) and do good things for our bodies, such as growing herbs or vegetables or ingesting things that our mothers and grandmothers used to. When you think about it, it is doubtful that my grandmas would...
  19. I so agree with the above. Michael Pollan says it very well, "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants." HOW TRUE!!! When he says to eat food, he means real food, none of this fake fandangled crud we have grown so accustomed to. Many of you are aware that icky things like margarine and Cheez Whiz are one molecule short of plastic, right? What are we doing...
  20. I've been behind with the forum as of late and it looks as though I've missed some good stuff! This dinner looks fabulous.
  21. Tonight is British Pub fayre: Cumberland Bangers with Mash (and my mash ain't no ordinary mash) and Caramelized Onion Sauce Mushy Minted Peas ...and I'm working on something else. Not exactly sure what it will be yet. And no, this is NOT code for something cabana-boy related, Irish!
  22. Yes - I'm just picturing cattle and sheep grazing on Switzerland meadows. Not so bad!
  23. Ugh. Your veal Marsala and risotto and swiss chard sound absolutely disgusting. That is such a classic, wondrous meal. I think we have room for all our meal ideas (at least my tummy does - it is now used to eating a bit more than usual). Lots of flying and airports involved but I think it'll be worth it!
  24. Finger foods. I am making: Buffalo wings Deviled wings Garlic bread with my homemade bread Korean scallion pancakes with sweet and spicy dip Roasted sweet potato fries with warmed spices
  25. Your meal sounds just a touch healthier than mine. But thankfully tomorrow is a new day filled with greens and vinaigrettes! Don't you just love mandolines? Mine gets good workouts, too.
