The Hobbit Hole XXVII - And there are many paths to tread...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 01/16/2006 6:56:15 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And there are many paths to tread

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Mmmm...chocolate and shortbread...

I've bought those in years past, though seems like they had a different name. Friendship cookies or something.

But Samoas and Thin Mints are the best.

I'm having your curry again, sis! Mmmm! I've aquired the taste, apparently!

I made it slightly different...I browned the chicken in a separate skillet, instead of cooking it in the sauce, then added it at the same time I added the peppers and cooked it in the sauce until the peppers were done.

I prefer the browned meat.

It's delicious!

I'm making the curry tonight! Hmm, browning the meat seperately might be a good idea...

See what you think! I chopped it up into bite-sized pieces and browned it in butter.

That wouldn't be too complicated. Would probably make the cooking even faster.

Was my post that boring? ;-)

How are things going? Windy yet?

It did, because I cooked the chicken at the same time as I saute'd the onions.

Also, the slightly browned meat made it look nice!

I tried browning the meat in olive oil with some chili powder - it turned out well, the whole curry, but I'm not sure I noticed a difference between this and how it usually is.

But MMMMM! The spice... the flavor... the colors (added some red pepper so it was yellow with green and red). Soooo good!

Exactly, we get it out there first. We'll make a killing, and then nobody will notice the trail of bodies we leave behind.

Um...we're on the same side, right? I'll be good.
