Hi Fugi.

I love hominy, but only toss it into a pot of greenbeans on RARE occasion, olwatshisname hates hominy. But this sounds good, especially since it has 'maters in it! Dahubby is working 2nds this week, I might cut this in half and make it for my supper one night. Are chilopte chiptople whatever peppers HOT peppers like jalepeno or habaneros?

Ohh. Did you get your computers/laptops/networks/phonelines all straightened out?

yeah but milder more of a smokey taste. Nope have to get some special gear to make work, ordered over the web took hours to find, nobody makes the stuff anymore because they think everyone else is making it. LOL Or they think that everyone has compatible systems and that the equipment does not need to mechanically seperated when plugged into the same line. LOL :D

How was your party? Loud & Wild? ;) :p :D

The 90th birthday party was crowded and really nice. We saw a lot of relatives we hadn't seen in a very long time.

Cut out of there about 2:45, hightailed it over to my s-i-l's for the Rams game. She had a roaring fire built for me and kept it going during the game - everyone else was b*tching how hot it was in the house, stripping down to teeshirts, opening all the windows (was close to 70 here today!) I just curled up on one of her kid's beanbag as close to the fireplace as I could without igniting and watched the game. (didn't even kill my other s-i-l that drives me to distraction, now she's a football expert-ACK!)

EVERYONE else was loud and wild, too much food and waaaaaaaaay too much beer. I had a Doc Otis about 4 and that was the extent of my partying. I was 'designated brain' for the day! Thinking I'm skipping the Super Bowl party at my b-i-l's next week and staying home alone with some carry out Chinese and the TV all to myself - will probably watch the game. Or a movie! ;)

Methinks inlaws should be outlawed. At least limited to one or two per family...NOT 16!!! I do like about 5 of them though. :D :eek: :D

Still need a cure for this headache...can't shake it. Pour me a shot of something! ;)

:D Pours JayBird a shot of Glaya on the rocks, drink up only 4 more and you won't have a care in the world!!:p

WADDAHELL was that stuff??? WHEW!
((checks for chest hairs))

Four more? HA. Not a chance, I'm a cheap date. ;)

I was seriously thinking a shot of SC couldn't hurt, I've had this headache since last night. :cool:

:D SC? on the rocks or neat or mixed with something?


actually for me when I have a major headache a little Port Wine helps me ;)

Southern Comfort, neat. Rarely mix it, and rarely on the rocks unless I'm out somewhere and nursing it.

PORT WINE? Isn't that a birth mark? :D

I HATE red wines. My daughter loves a good merlot and that stuff just is NASTY. I brought 4 bottles of wine home from the winery in Indy last weekend, one is a sweet aubergine, the rest are white, a sweet riesling, a peche, and ummm I forget what the other is. There's a near-full bottle of cabernet in the frig (Sarah left it)but I think I'll stick with my SC. After a few of those headache should be gone. It's probably just my allergies...I'm allergic to inlaws. ;)

;) Thats what I thought "Southern Comfort"

I dont touch the stuff, something to do with a night out cruising, 1 bottle of souther comfort & 1 bottle of Lime Vodka (I was 16 at the time) by the end of the night we had 2 empty bottles and the next morning had very sore heads, very nasty hangovers. :p

As to the other well;

TODAY'S RECIPE

ESPECIALLY FOR FUGI! ;) :D

HAGGIS
:eek: :eek: :eek:
(Thanks to The Scottish St. Andrews Society of Greater St. Louis)

Ingredients:
2 pounds lamb’s liver
2 pounds lamb’s heart
1 pound ground chuck
1/2 pound lamb suet
1 pound of oatmeal (pinhead, Irish coarse or stone ground)
1 lemon - juice
5 medium onions
1 Tablespoon pepper (more if desired)
2 Tablespoon salt
1/2 pint stock
Sherry or whisky as desired
**I'd desire about a 5th of each to even make this. There's not enough booze on Earth to get me to eat it! **

Preparation:
Mince all the liver, heart, ground chuck and onions, and brown thoroughly in a little suet. Grate the suet very finely in a small food processor if possible. Toast the oatmeal lightly on a large baking sheet in the oven for 25-30 minutes at 325-350 degrees. Prepare a good stock with carrots, celery, salt and pepper, and the juices from the meat. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly and fill into small (1 pound) loaf tins and bake on tray filled with water for 45 minutes at 350 degrees.

Excuse me while I visit RRRRRRALPH!
