Oh, you didn't?
Heh-heh-heh. I'm ready for the snow when it hits Seattle Wednesday night.
Stay home, snuggle under the covers, and be thankful you don't have to go out in that stuff.
Jake is safe indoors, yes.
he a crazy dog, and loves to be outdoors.
Christmas Eve, the charge nurse let one of her pets go home early for the third time that week.
She knew I had to be up at 4 am and back to work early, and she did it anyway, even after I had asked her not to.
I was very surprised by this..she is not the person I thought she was, and that smarts..
Ah well, lessons learned, I guess.
I will probably set something simmering on the woodstove tomorrow, just haven’t decided what, yet.
LOL
*HUG*
What a great idea!
Thank you, Star and Kathy, for Part III of one of the greatest
acts of compassion that a victorious military ever performed
for their former enemy. Only the American military would
have that kind of mind-set! God bless our troops...past,
present and future!
*HUG*
I DO have some frozen ham hock and bean soup!
LOL
You know me too well!
I am VERY thankful not to have to go out in that mess!
I think I posted that recipe from my late mother's collection some time ago. I made it under her watchful eye when I was in New Jersey during the aftermath of my father's death in 1997. Her hands were too twisted from rheumatoid arthritis to cook anymore, so I followed her instructions as she observed me.
That stuff was so good I finished it before I took the train back to Seattle.
Stay in, stay warm, stay safe!
Ham hock and bean soup is delicious, filling and warming!
I love it with fresh corn bread, too.
I think I remember you publishing her recipe..
*HUG*
Thank you, teenie.
I like to put a bit of Worcestershire in the bowl as I eat it, and wash it down with some dark beer or ale.
Hmmm..
Interesting!
I like to drizzle mustard on it!
Regular yellow mustard or the hot Dijon?
I like Dijon, best!
YOM!!
Washing it down with a dark ale sounds good, too.
Do you like Guinness Stout?
!!!Stout tastes like medicine to me. It’s a bit too dark for my taste. An Arrogant Bastard ale from California or a darker beer from our Pacific Northwest microbreweries will do the trick.
Smiling at you....several inches of snow here and 30 degrees and dropping.
Stay warm Kathy.
It is disgusting to me when so-called “professionals” have
preferred people that they work with and cause hardship to
other just as deserving people. She will pay for it someday!
I know whatever it is you decide to “simmer”, it will be yummy!
We still have TONS of food left over from yesterdays feast.
Mr. LUV did himself proud with all the great stuff he fixed!
(He loves doing it...and I love having someone else do it! LOL)
It took me a while to learn to like it, but I do now.
I never did develop a taste for Heineken..
(I know it’s not a dark ale)
Yuck
Taste like le skunk!
Thank goodness you don’t have to work tomorrow! Those at work, may be stuck there. Has that happened before?
Good description for all beer/ale in general! :)
