So... Whats for lunch?

[CK]

yes, they were smoked, like the canned ones. Hey, if they have it on the menu, why not? (of course it was on the "build your own pizza" list).

[P.C.]

Well in that case it sounds like pizza perfection to me !  CK ? [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/more/bigs/a056.GIF" border=0]

W00h00!!
I had thai food and it was amazing.
Chicken pan fried noodles with garlic. And to drink some scrummy thai iced tea.
I love this thai restaurant. It has orange walls. That should be garish and annoying but somehow isn't.

Wow. I go away for one day and I missed out on all the fun. Must have been a busy lunch date.

  purelife - it's really easy to make congee in a crock pot but easier if you have one of those fancy rice cooker that cooks the stuff. What I do is to add 1 cup of rice to about four cups of water. Toss in ginger and leave on slow overnight.  Then 1 hour before you start eating, throw in fish (or whatever you want) and scallops (I use the rehydrated dried scallops) and set crock pot to high.

  Garnish with cilantro and scallions. Pepper to taste. I also add a dash of sesame oil. We bought chinese donuts from the store and cut them into pieces to add to the congee for some authentic taste. Delicious.

  And oh, speaking of puking... I almost puked the other day when I was eating at the Metrotwon McDonalds. Disgusting place! I couldn't believe the floor stank of poo..... and my husband told me the delightful story of just exiting their toilet. Apparently someone had smeared poo all over the walls. Great.....NOT.

Your congee recipe sounds yummy.  It sounds about like how my mom makes hers but I didn't know about the cooking the rice with the ginger for a long time.  Good idea.  Do you use white rice or brown?  I've always had congee with white rice but know that white rice is bad for you.  So, I wonder how it'll taste like with brown.  

Thanks Lise.

No probs, purelife. My mother's brilliant when she makes congee. She adds the ginger in order to give it a bit of a flavor. I had no idea you could make congee in a crock pot but thanks to my mom, I get to do this very simple dish when it gets cold in winter.

  You'll get to sample her cooking this weekend.

Sweet!  I love home cooking by mom's.  Mom's cooking is always the best.    

The other day, I was at a friend's house and his mom made this meatleaf and sauce for tortellini and OMG, YUMMY!  

Whenever I want homemade food, I head to my mom's because I just don't have the time to cook at home with this second job and errands in the evening when I'm not working.  




 

[Lise]

That sounds yummy. Any idea how she does it?

  Yeah, you're so lucky your mom's here. I wish mine was living closer so I can just haul my butt over whenever I feel like homecooking. *sigh*
