    Thursday #320-Soup to Nuts?

    It's been crappy weather almost all last month.

    Cloudy, cold and kinda humid. Soup weather.

    I am boiling up a pot of Lima beans and pork. Any takers?

    I think some kind of mulled anything should do the trick.

    DONE!

    -----------------------

    The weather guy came out and said that we have had 27 days of below average temperature. The sun breaks through in the afternoon, but that is way to late for my taste!

    Yummy! I love lima beans. Have never cooked them with pork but sounds good. I have some nice crusty bread to go along with it. I splurged and bought fresh bread and REAL butter from the store today when I was out at lunch time.

    I also love Lima Beans.

    However, instead of something murky to drink, would you please fix me an Amalfi Cocktail?

    Yes!

    1-1/2 oz citrus vodka
    1/2 oz Limoncé Limoncello
    1/2 oz fresh lime juice
    2 sprigs lemon thyme or regular thyme

    Put vodka, Limoncé, fresh lime juice and the leaves from one sprig of thyme into a shaker with ice. Shake vigorously. Strain and pour into chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a sprig of thyme.

    And a bowl of beans.

    DONE!


    Happy,

    I had a huge piece of pork loin that I boned. I set the bone to cook with water, onion and garlic. I let it sit over night then, took off the small pieces of meat still stuck on the bone. Today I did a quick boil of the beans, rinsed then drained them. I took the pork broth and tossed in a diced potato, diced onion, diced bellpepper, S and P....

    Real butter, cannot go wrong there!

    DONE!

    Sounds yummy, but I was thinking more of this recipe -

    4 flavored vodkas
    blue curacao
    mango and strawberry purees
    Frozen and powerful . . . .


    At least that's the way they make it near Narragansett Beach.

    And soup is the most basic food. I am sorry you have to be soo careful...But, that said? Bring your bowl over!

    DONE!

    Liz,

    You grab your favorite bowl/cup, butter up some bread and sit down at the table wrapped in the throw off of the couch?

    DONE!

    Grace,

    Only if you promise to give me your car keys.....The Malfi recipe I got off the 'net. For a minute there I thought I was pouring Tony Soprano's therapist!


    DONE!


    LP,

    LOL, cook like a Texan? I am flattered, But, like Texas, I'd have to be HUGE.

    I barely fit an XLL.

    Two bowls, two drinks and a fire extinguisher.

    When David shows up you came change assignement?


    Gini can vouch for me about the weather, I am sure she really hates the trip in the morning to get to her office!

    LOL, I heard from one of those fancy manner books that you hide what you don't like under a napkin......These are the times I miss Mario!!

    ------------------

    There is another PTer that don't eat mushrooms because they scream when you cut them-I wonder how the 'old' gal is doing!

    Never worked at our house ...
    Mom *insisted* the nappy was on the LAP before food was consumed.

    And NO Dawg till I was in High School ...
    and even then the Dawg wasn't allowed near the table (and the unwanted
    Lima beans) - she had to lay in the hall-dining room doorway ...
    too far to toss 'em.

    And they *SQUEAK* when you *byte* 'em!

    Those are probably more authentic than any Cah lee Fuh Nee Ah recipe.

    LOL, which brings me to the old joke about us Messicans not having BBQS..

    The beans fall through the grill?

    Thanks Grace!

    I'll fill the tank when I am done!
