Nope. I wanted a GE but they didn’t have one.

Yes, traditional lemon juice and sugar.

Last night, we made seafood gumbo with rice, biscuits and I made my own version of a King Cake.

Pored over my Brit recipes....Nigella had this salad.....dont know where she got the name from.
She calls it absolutely delicious, a brilliant and simple recipe. Yogurt or milk seems to work for buttermilk,
or use apple syrup for maple syrup. One Nigella follower zinged it w/ grated 1/2 green apple; says it's better without the syrup.

NEW ORLEANS COLE SLAW
METHOD Whisk cup mayo, 4 tb buttermilk, 2 tb maple syrup, 2 tsp cider vinegar;
toss/coat w/ shredded cabbage, grated carrots, minced scallions/celery. S/p then toss in fine-chp nuts.

Sort of a play on Green Goddess dressing. I make that and always add a bit of green food coloring along with the herbs.

As soon as I mix the salad with the dressing, it turns white again. Of course, I don’t use a lot of coloring. No one wants a lurid dressing.

Nice for St Pat's Day......served in green crystal glassware.

The Best Lime Ice Cream

ING 3/4 cup sugar 1 1/2 cups h/cream 2 tb grated lime zest 1/3 cup lime juice (Key lime juice is great).

Directions Stir/combine ing til sugar dissolves. Freeze in an ice cream maker, or in a wide, shallow container, stirring from time to time.

Chef's Note: the ice cream never gets really hard in freezer -- the texture should be airy and light.

Our local Safeway has point cut for $1.68 per lb. this week.

My husband usually prefers the flat cut, because it’s easier to deal with. The Point is two muscles, one on top of the other, with the grain of each opposed. To get a tender cross cut, you have to separate the muscles before carving.

Either way, corned beef is great - Enjoy!

I think the point cut has a bit more fat too. Hence, the theoretically lower price than the flat cut.

I think ‘they’ say that the point has more flavor, too.

We’ve always been happy with the flat cut; but with point going so cheap, we’re going to stock up :-)

Oh my, Guy Fieri just explained to the viewing audience that mountain oysters come from the underneath of the cow.

The mind can make some things very unappetizing, even when they might be ‘good eats’. I think I’ll abstain, and get my oysters from the sea :-)

(Please note the direction to the ‘prairie oyster’ hangover cure. My father, who was a boxer in his youth and won the Golden Gloves, used to give me that when I had the ‘flu - I guess he learned it as some kind of ‘strengthening’ cure. It was nasty, but I gulped it down to save his feelings :-)
