Gastronomology: Pantry Tom Yum Soup
http://gastronomology.blogspot.com/2008/12/pantry-tom-yum-soup.html
Saturday, December 13, 2008. Pantry Tom Yum Soup. Everything apart from the tin of prawns came from the pantry so this isn't a truly authentic Tom Yum but a pantry Tom Yum suitable for someone with diminished capacity (for food that is). Alli's pantry Tom Yum soup. 1 tin of prawns. 1 packet of two minute noodles (discard the flavourings). 4 mushrooms (I had swiss browns). Chilli, fresh or dried. Fish sauce (2 tblsp). Lime and chilli seasoning. Chicken stock or booster. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Monday, February 2, 2009. Chicken and vegetable soup. 3 gloves of garlic. 1 can of beans. 1 can of diced tomatoes. 1 cup of rice (uncooked). 4 rashers of bacon. Now this soup is a main meal in itself. Your spoon will stand up in the bowl. This is also a big pot of soup, those ingredients fill an 8L pot, feel free to 1/2 or 1/4 it. Also feel free to leave anything out you might not like, these are my favourites. Wash and prepare your veggies, I grated the carrots, celery, swede and turnip. Stir through fi...

http://gastronomology.blogspot.com/2009/03/lobscouse-with-beef.html
Sunday, March 29, 2009. Lobscouse - with beef! Ah yes, its a theme thing. . . I feel like that kid in 'The Castle' - "Dad, I made another stew". This time it is beef, with a warm smokey flavour and loaded with winter vegetables. It is one of the oldest Forecastle dishes, and eats very savoury when it is well made". The Far Side of the World. 1 Large Onion - diced. 1 Leek - chopped. 1 Swede - diced. 1 Parsnip - sliced. 3 large carrots - sliced. 3 large potatoes - diced. 500g Pumpkin - diced. 1 cup of peas.

Scrapbook Widower: The Church of the One True Scrapper
http://scrapbook-widower.blogspot.com/2008/02/church-of-one-true-scrapper.html
Wednesday, 5 March 2008. The Church of the One True Scrapper. And while on the subjest of religious affiliation. . . I note that members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints (more conveniently called 'Mormons') are very, very fond of Genealogy. They certainly have extensive databases dedicated to collecting and recording family details. Thus it should be no surprise at all that they also feature heavily in the scrapping world. How do they do it? Does it influence the scrapping style? Ahahaha...

http://gastronomology.blogspot.com/2008/12/sangria.html
Saturday, December 13, 2008. Sangria is a traditional Spanish summer red-wine punch. There are any number of recipes for sangria and generally with the basics of fruit juice and red wine to begin with you can improvise endlessly to find one you enjoy. I made a jug today and have been enjoying it slowly through the evening. 1 Apple, diced. 1 Orange, diced. 1 lime, diced. 60ml Triple Sec (Orange Liqueur). 500ml citrus juice (I used a lemon/lime/orange blend). Serve chilled over ice. Pantry Tom Yum Soup.

Scrapbook Widower: I'm Sorry
http://scrapbook-widower.blogspot.com/2008/02/im-sorry.html
Wednesday, 13 February 2008. And I'm glad we've finally heard that from our PM. No, saying sorry doesn't solve the problems but it is a damn fine starting point. We might not have caused the problems but we do have to fix them. The tears pouring down the faces of some of the elderly Aboriginal people in crowds around Australia give the lie to the previous government's claim that saying "sorry" didn't mean anything. It did to those people. Now there is work to get on with. Life of a Scrapbooker's Husband.

Scrapbook Widower: Equilibrium
http://scrapbook-widower.blogspot.com/2008/10/equilibrium.html
Saturday, 11 October 2008. Morti made a a comment on my last post a few hours back that made me feel guilty - I haven't posted here for nearly six months. I could blame it on being busy, but then even at my busiest I have managed a post each day over at Cafe Grendel. I think what has really happened is that rather than the wild ride that being married to a scrapbooker was a year ago, things have now settled into a balance. I have visions of him stepping through the television and looking around in horror:.

Scrapbook Widower: The walls
http://scrapbook-widower.blogspot.com/2008/03/walls.html
Monday, 10 March 2008. It is spreading like a contagious disease. Off you go merrily to work in the morning and return home in the afternoon to find that the scrapbooking has leapt off the pages and on to the walls. I wondered if she'd run out of paper, but no, there on the shelf is the usual rainbow of cardstock - this was graffiti, pure and simple. Let me make myself clear. Not at all, never. Can I just state for the record that I am not acid-free and that I intend to commence lignin eating immediately.

Scrapbook Widower: Predictions
http://scrapbook-widower.blogspot.com/2008/02/predictions.html
Saturday, 16 February 2008. I'm going into the clairvoyant business. After last weeks blogging effort I almost have to - I suggested that a scrapbooking novel might be an idea, and lo, there are several. I predicted that scrapbooking paper would make a good spacecraft, and the Japanese are rolling out (or is that unfolding? Their plans for origami space flight. Lurid 1960's prints will continue to annoy Mrs Grendel who has only boy children to scrapbook. Digital scrapbooking will not become dominant over...
