Schadenfreude
N/A

Posted on 03/03/2005 10:23:50 AM PST by Right Wing It

I was unaware up until this point that there was a German word meaning "happiness at the misfortune of others" The Word is "SCHADENFREUDE". What makes it ironic is that it is the only national language in the world to have a word for such a subject. Who else thinks there should be an American word for this?

When you're done with that, I've got some vegetable stock on the stove and a bag of noodles.

(Is there a word in a foreign language that expresses the anticipation of homemade chicken soup, shared with friends with perhaps a side order of Road-Killed Beeber?)

Umm.. I thing it has "Chow Mein" in it or attached to it.
Goes really good with sweet and sour sauce too I hear.
Dunno what the word is off the top of my head, suffering from a mind drill moment.

Okay......easy recipe,but it takes a long time to make.

I suggest that you make enough for two full meals.........but you can cut this recipe down,if you'd rather.

In a HUGE pot,place 8 meaty short ribs of beef, water almost to the top of the pot,one entire bunch of washed celery,with leaves, a bunch of parsley,five (you can always use more) large carrots cut thinly into rounds,two small peeled Spanish/yellow onions,a turnip if you care to,and three tablespoons of salt. Bring to a rapid boil and skim the muck off the top. This will take you a while. Just keep skimming that brownish/white gunk off the top until there is no more.

Place the lid on the pot,but allow for some steam to escape and simmer on THE lowest possible flame for a couple of hours.

Remove the celery and the parsley and the onions and simmer for another 1/2 hour. Let cool and place in the icbox overnight.

About 3/4 of an hour before you want to serve dinner. remove the yellow congealed fat,which has come to the top and hardened.Bring to a boil and then simmer for about 1/2 hour.

Serve the soup with some of the carrots slices. Then serve the meat and carrots with a baked potato and pickles and horseradish (either red or white)on the side.

It's easy,delicious,and cheap. ENJOY! :-)
