Whats on your plate? - Page 15

The real question has nothing to do with plates. The real question is...

What's in your wallet?

Nope. I'm absolutely certain that that is not the real question.

Well, it was corned beef, steamed carrots, and *almost* colcannon. I say *almost* because I fry the cabbage in olive oil/butter mix and make regular mashed potatoes, only combining them on my own plate, because Chris won't touch cabbage.

I think this is the best corned beef meal I have ever made - only took me six years to get it right! I'd never had it before I fell in love with a Southside Chicago Irish boy, LOL. Chris made ours the first few years I was here, but since he works second shift, we were reduced to having it on the nearest weekend to St. Patrick's day, which while acceptable, isn't ideal.
Finally I figured out that if I just crockpot the corned beef it turns out tender and perfect, and I've never had a problem with the veggies. Neither of us like them cooked with the meat, so it's all good. I actually usually prefer the corned beef hash that comes after the St. Pat's meal, but this year the beef by itself was pretty darned good!

Oh, and why did I say that it was on my plate? Because the plate's now empty!

ah. Japanese noodles versus spaghetti.
Nothing to do with loosing weight or diet.

I am sure that one has to be as multicultural and open minded as possible. But ...
If one does not perceive the abysmal difference or if perceives it in reverse than I do have serious doubts ...

Bagel with jam and some juice = breakfast

I must unsubcribe to this thread! you guys are having all the delicious dishes!

SameOldStory · 03-18-2011, 02:20 PM

Egg and Tune salad.

And I agree with maianhvk to some degree. You guys have to share a little. Can you just get together and plan a party? Then invite the rest of us. I'll even volunteer to supervise someone else doing the dishes.

SameOldStory · 03-18-2011, 10:45 PM

Then that makes two nice people I would like to visit in Italia.

But the best I can do is to buy an old Roman coin now and then.
