Last night I experimented in the kitchen. I had leftover green chiles and just
a little bit of rice and some cheese, but I wanted to make this rice dish.
(What an eloquent way of stating it) ANYWAY, I decided to add a few more
ingredients and see what happened.
I added the green chiles (pureed), sour cream, rice, shredded cheese, tomatos,
and several eggs and baked for about 40 minutes ... a delicious casserole.

Sitting down to eat does not imply slackerdom to me. To enjoy a meal, I believe it is imperative that you sit and savor. Relax and eat comfortably...
BTW I usually "grab" lunch too -- my bad.

Speaking of the dining alone...
I've just recently acquired the ability to do so comfortably. In fact, in
Boston this summer, I dined at Legal Sea Foods solo. Me, a glass of wine, a

Yes, don't worry, I'm far better with the kids than with myself - otherwise they'll never have survived to the ripe ages of two and three. I have a book with about a hundred menues for kids and how to make it look more attractive so they'll eat it. I'm trying to prevent them from turning into slobs like myself!
I'll go to the library and try and find something a little more suitable than the Afrikaner cookbook. A friend of mine once read somewhere about a banana diet, where you eat only bananas for a whole week, and this is supposed to clean out your system. After a week she was bunged up as a stuffed animal, and two kilo's heavier! Think I'll stay away from that particular one . . . .

salmon burgers
stuffed mushroom
spinach/cheese stuffed shells
potato/zucchini cakes
falafel
oh... can't forget Mac N Cheese night!
the stuffed mushrooms were 'the absolute BEST ones you've ever made' according to Brandon. I substituted crushed cracker crumbs for bread crumbs because... I was out of stale bread. I could of changed a few more things around but it's hard to tell... perhaps more garlic. More butter? The freshly dried herbs?

Today (well, yesterday really but I'm having leftovers tonight) I cooked shrimp scampi. Couldn't find pink shrimp and had to settle for brown ones, which I don't like as much. In Texas pink shrimp are imported from other parts of the Gulf. Brown shrimp are native to Texas waters. But the scampi was OK.

Actually, white (pink) and brown are not different species. There's just a variation within the same species. For some reason white ones are found in the eastern part of the Gulf of Mexico, and brown ones in the western part, where Texas is.

Any seafood will pick up some of it's flavor from the surrounding water. Different water = Different flavor. Usually the difference is subtle, however I
can tell the difference between fresh water catfish, and farm raised catfish.

I always like to hear about someone that is willing to dispense with the turkey
on Thanksgiving, and eat what they really want to eat. I, on the other hand, ended up eating turkey, primarily because it was cooked by a friend, and it was

He did a good job and It was very good.

All of the rain-lovers should plan a stay in Hilo. We get upwards of 200 inches
(508cm) of it a year, and it is never cold and achy...it also does not get leaden and dark for days on end. Our Tomato plants die of old age...but we have the very same season all year round. Boring!

This is true. You can plan on leaving your crampons and snowshoes in Colorado unless you like to be in 10% air. In that case, you can snow ski at 14,000' and get a really bad headache while you are doing so. Where you will be running, it will be mostly humidity and sun you will have to battle, element-wise. They start you out pre-dawn so it is cooler for you...but you also just might get rained on gently and briefly. It is considered a blessing in Hawaii!

Don't even think about that...*sigh* We are far enough south of Japan that the northern jet stream and prevailing winds should carry it up to the Aleutians. Of course, nothing of that nature escapes the Earth's atmosphere and gravitational pull so we just might all be sprinkled with the deadly stuff eventually!

Please tell all our fellow springeurs that I will be back this weekend--technical difficulties kept me from posting early this week (though I could read posts). Obviously, that's been corrected and I'll be back with bells on to see what's going one with all of you.

Had a takeaway pizza last night (go on, shoot me) and then a chicken / rice / vegetable stir-fry this evening. Good stuff!

Your first salad as a main meal?! Interesting milestone. Salad bars have been a way of life for me since I was a teenager. I confess that I, too, had carryout pizza last night (but still had a salad on the side!)

yup! Me, too. Now I make great big ones with all sorts of goodies in them so they are a complete meal. On a hot day they are perfect. We have especially bedacious avocandoes over here (about 2 pounds each and NO strings with a buttery flavor and no bitterness) which I add liberally. If I ever leave Hawaii, I will miss them most of all I think! The one I made last night had white boneless, skinless chicken in it, and small herbed tofu slices along with fresh spinach, tomatoes and other greens. And two kinds of cheeses.

Hi Autumn, there's a topic on cultural aspects of food in the cultures conference (of which for my sins I am now host) created last year on someones suggestion. Bit broader than specific countries/continents food I think ...probably some overlap inevitably. One of the things I hope to think about there for example is customs or rituals surrounding eating.

Spam-fried rice. I make it in batches so it is enough for next Sunday's breakfast, too. It tastes better if the flavors have had time to permeate the rice. Delicious topped by fried or soft-boiled eggs.

Baked clams, chipotle rice, cupcakes for Halloween!
The clams and rice are part of the whole 'cook it now and freeze it before the baby comes' nesting thing, I think. The cupcakes are just for fun. When Kendall gets up from her nap, I'm going to try and decorate them with the expert help of an 18-month old!
