  1. Yup - Virginia - so why am I thinking she's done something involving Oregon lately? It can't possibly be Kim as they are headed or left for London and Paris and I don't believe she could fit in blogging while she was there. Kay
  2. This doesn't have water chestnuts in it but is this the recipe? Spaghetti Casserole INGREDIENTS 1 tbsp vegetable oil 1 lb ground beef or turkey 2 6 oz cans tomato paste l onion, chopped 1 clove of garlic, minced 2 28 oz cans of Franco-American spaghetti Parmesan cheese, grated DIRECTIONS  Brown the meat, onion, and garlic in the oil in a skillet, and drain thoroughly.  Add the spaghetti and tomato paste to the meat mixture, and mix well.  Transfer the mixture to a 13x9 pan, sprinkle the top with Parmesan cheese, and bake for 1 hour in the oven at 350.

  3. What no more clues? Since none of us are guessing, I think we need one. Kay

    Pork Shoulder

    I couldn't find anything on Allrecipes that matched what you are remembering. However, I did find this My link recipe on Food.com, which was previously known as RecipeZaar. It has a lot of similarity to your described recipe. Hopefully, it is it and you just misremembered the source. Kay
  5. Spaghetti with Ground Lamb and Spinach My link Herbed Meatballs with Garlicky Yogurt My link Both very good and we have been enjoying them for years. Kay
  6. Scotch Broth with barley, carrots etc. Kay

    Your best cheap dish

    Which recipe is this one you mentioned? I am about to cook for a large group of men and this sounds interesting. Thanks, Kay
  9. Many years ago when the children were young and we tent camped, one of our camping recipes was 'One Pot Spaghetti' where the pasta was cooked directly in the pasta sauce with onions. Definitely resulted in a very paste like tasting dish that was definitely "sturdy" to say the least. None of us minded when it no longer made the rotation. Kay

    Cream of [?] Soups

    Dan, You might find this site a good source of ideas. http://www.soupchick.com Kay
  11. Would this be the one? http://www.astray.com/recipes/?show=Tomato%20cheese%20souffle Kay
  12. Toliver is my guess for one of them also. I do remember reading about a large Pez collection several years ago. Kay
  13. Blount is considered the leading frozen mussel supplier in North America and provides the foodservice industry with year-round availability of IQF fresh-frozen mussels. These are sold in the large oriental markets in the Seattle area and I use them in any recipe in which I would use steamed mussels, other then a bowl of simple steamed mussels. Treating them as Tracey indicated should be a good start. Just don't cook them too long as they are already cooked. You just want to warm them through. They can pretty much be substituted for chopped clams in lots of recipes, i.e. pasta sauce etc. Kay
  14. This is the information that I found on getting a subscription delivered outside France: they suggest on their website that you call. They state: For overseas territories and abroad, please visit our subscription service 03 88 66 86 11. Hope that helps. Kay
  15. You might want to check out the following for information:http://www.chowgeeks.com/cvorestaurant.html Kay
  16. Are you trying to get a subscription to the US version of Saveurs or to the one from France? If the US version have you considered reading it online? I have a subscription but do use the online file to backfill when I can't remember in what issue I read an article. If it is the France version then all I could find was info on the publication in French. Kay
  17. Did you try the recipe and was it similar to the one you had in the restaurant? Kay
  18. We recently enjoyed a great meal at Olivar Restaurant http://www.olivarrestaurant.com. Their 3 course menu was interesting and varied the night we were there. Street parking in the area can be an issue if something is going on at the Harvard Exit Theater that is across the street. The night before we enjoyed dinner at the Red Fin Sushi Restaurant & Bar http://www.redfinsushi.com . Every Monday evening they offer a 10% discount for customers living in their zip code or staying in a hotel in the zip code. We had originally chosen the restaurant as we were staying at the adjacent Hotel Max following a long day of driving. We were extremely surprised and pleased with the quality of the offerings and some of their uniqueness. We second T squares' recommendation of Spring Hill. We really enjoyed our food there. Have fun where ever you end up. There are so many choices. Kay
  19. You have not been the only person trying to determine this recipe. See the below link for other info including the "chef's verbal description on how to make the dish." Link regarding dish Now I want to try it. Hope that works out. Kay

    Dinner! 2009

    Prawncrackers, the pork belly confit looks delicious beyond belief. Will you be willing to share the recipe or the link? Al, my husband, loves pork belly and I have yet found a recipe that I was very happy with flavor and appearance. Yours looks like it would be definitely worth the effort. Thanks, Kay

    Dinner! 2009

    Lindsey, Do you have a recipe reference for the Lamb and Honey Tagine? We brought back two tagines from our recent trip and that sounds like something we would enjoy. Used them last night for a chicken tagine with green olives and lemons. Thanks, Kay
  23. I think these are the greatest. Have had one since we got married 44 years ago. Have used them when we had our kitchen being repaired and when we lost gas power in a different house. Currently on our second or third one and use it many times a week. Hard to find the very large truly square ones now. Most are slanted or circular. Our is a Black and Decker but they no longer are produced. The heat control light doesn't work so the temp is based on instinct. Still continue to use it and enjoy it. Would really miss not having one. On the other hand none of our children use them in their homes. Times change I guess. Kay
