ROFL!!!!
Parkway North!
You?
ROTF.....George Burns was warned by 3 doctors to quit smoking cigars, and drinking scotch every day. He buried all three!
Seriously though, California really needs a few Crackerbarrel restaurants.
Actually, canola is rapeseed oil. Soybean oil is typically marketed as 'vegetable oil.'
GreatGrandma and GrandMa made greasy bread. Oh,I can taste it now! Mom made the best stuffed pork chops and barbequed lamb chops. I love to barbeque turkey parts like the thigh and breast.
You know, it is possible for Americans to work on more than one issue at any given time.
You didn't mention the possibility of a new Pauly Shore movie.
I've been on an 8 year quest to find the perfect cheeseburger, and so far, the two best are one I had at some Bennigan's-like place(I forget it's name, but that burger was good!) on the Westbank in the New Orleans' suberbs, and the other comes from a local bar in my hometown. I usually hate ketchup on my burger, but they mix it with Tobasco, and it's unbelievable.
That one is just too unlikely to make the list.
However, if it should happen, I will include it.
A young man of my acquaintance, a St. Louisan, went with his bride to visit her relatives in Jackson, MS in the 1980s. While there, the two really wanted to find a bagel, but all the Jackson natives they asked thought they were referring to "labels" and kept directing them to office supply stores. I imagine they settled for a donut until they could get back to St. Loo.
Chaminade, class of 80
ain't complete or healthy without some greens cooked with ham hocks and doused with the pepper sauce (you know, the one you refill until the peppers turn grey, then you eat the peppers)
Amen! They also conveniently ignore the fact that Yankees surely don't eat 'healthy' all the time either. How about hot dogs, philly cheesesteaks, so on? You are right too - I am more than willing to take on any Yankee woman in a cooking contest AND a fitness one :)
Reminds of that old song "That's What I Like About the South" performed by Phil Harris (among others):
"Lets go down to Alabammy
Let's go see my dear ol' mammy
She's fryin' eggs and broilin' hammy
That's what I like about the South
Why there you can make no mistakey
Where your nerves are never shaky
Ought to taste her layer cakey
That's what I like about the South
She's got baked ribs and candied yams
Those sugar cured Virginia hams
Basement full of those berry jams
And that's what I like about the South
She's got hot corn bread and black eyed peas
eat as much as you please
'Cause it's never out of season
That's what I like about the South
She's got backbones and turnip greens
ham hocks and butter beans
You and me and New Orleans
And that's what I like about the South
Don't take one, have two
They're dark brown and chocolate, too
Suits me, they must suit you
'Cause that's what I like about the South"
Man do I love a good Southern breakfast. Pan Fried Ham, Sausage Gravy, Buttermilk Biscuits. Though someone's gotta teach this Yankee how to eat grits. I just smother mine in salt.
