Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #188: Hockey Is The Real Politics

My late grandmother had an Armenian friend whose rice pilaf recipe we cling to, to this day. The recipe insists on the use of a wooden spoon. :p
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #188: Hockey Is The Real Politics

Ah yes, the wooden spoon. Mom used that in the rarest of instances. Now, Great Gramma, she threatened to cut a switch from a willow tree. Only once did she start to go out and cut that switch, and my bro and I freaked out enough at the thought, that we behaved instantaneously.

Evening, Lodge. Scouting out some vehicles, so as to make a choice in springtime, lining up the many beer releases that happen every Oct/Nov and picking and choosing (and proxy buying for others) said beers, and dreading the cold weather that is almost here. Might be a touch of snow this weekend.

It's really simple - toast broken vermicelli and pine nuts in enough butter to coat. Add chicken broth and rice. Cook according to standard rice directions.

If desired, garnish with more toasted pine nuts (or almonds) and fresh parsley.

Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #188: Hockey Is The Real Politics

I fell asleep at 8 last night and slept until 6 this morning. I feel like I'm caught up on sleep for the week.

Where is everyone?

Hockey tonight with the golden globe uglies. Baking brownies and reveling in the fact I have the next week off. First time in probably 30 yrs I have been able to get the day after Thanksgiving off :D Happy Dance!!
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #188: Hockey Is The Real Politics

Feast or famine at work this week. I have a feeling the colder weather + hunting season is the cause for slowness today, and most likely tomorrow.

Sounds like western and northern MN is gonna get nailed with a crapton of snow tomorrow night; metro area only supposed to get a couple inches at most.

What I've had to say over the past day or so isn't fit to post here, so I've been elsewhere.

Nah, flying to Belfast first for several days, then a couple days in Dublin. The things some of us do for this crazy sport of college hockey.

ETA: I'll do my best not to run the taps dry, GE.

Yeah, I've gotten the spoon, flyswatter, and whatever was handy a few times.

Probably the most memorable one was the one time I went past the line that I wasn't supposed to cross back when I was five. She was out riding her old gelding Rusty and she rode him over to me and started to beat at me with the reins as I ran back up to the house. Rusty must have either felt sorry for me, or thought for sure he was next and didn't quite follow me right away.
