I was watching this old show on the cooking channel this morning and it triggered a memory in the corner of my mind. These two big women are using camping stoves and fishing and cooking the fish by burying it in a pit and covering it with a beach towel.

Was there a thread on is show before? It just cracked me up and afterward I came in and started searching for it.

I ask this because for the 5th week running I have won some-thing on the lottery.

Most weeks, I will have 3 some-times 4 numbers on the National Lottery and 2 even 3 numbers on the Euro Millions. One In 3 scratch cards I will win on..

The only time I ever did a lottery ticket on the Littlewoods Pools, I won the Jackpot. I had never done It In my life before and never done It since. I had to put down four numbers, I was In a hurry and 3 being my lucky number just... [Read More]

Hard to believe but this lovely lady turns SEVENTY today!!

Bought fresh shrimp to make a risotto and went to de-vein it - there looks to be veins top and bottom. Do i need to take both out? It seems to chop it up a bit much, IMO.

And the cooking shows all say you don't use cheese with seafood, but the only risotto I've had used cheese and tasted fine.

What's the consensus here?

If Australia and South Africa can learn to play for the whole 80 minutes, they might even look like they can win the All Backs.

Granted the Wallabies is a young team, but the Springboks.... argh I think they are just too... old

Despite all the hype on the new film "The American" with George Clooney, I found it required the viewer to imagine a story line on their own rather than the film making the plot clear. There were a number of questions that remained unanswered. Still, the film was entertaining and the love scenes quite erotic.
Questions----who did Clooney kill and why? Who did Clooney work for? Why did they kill Clooney? Did they not want to pay Clooney? Why did they bother to give Clooney the... [Read More]
