Is that your hand in the picture above?






Mamaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

Ummmm... this is obviously FRENCH!

No cuz I don't have dirty nails

Oh, I thought it was that spaghetti o's sauce that got in the fingernails. Sorry.


Let me ask you this Mig. Seriously now.

Do you make Grits?

You don't hafta take this from Cardi, Mig..... He only knows about grits because he watched "My Cousin Vinny".

(Come to think of it, thats the only thing I know about grits, too).

"Da two yutes!"

Actually I happen to like grits with a little bit of sugar added to them.

But I was really interested to know if Mama Mig makes Grits.

While on my honeymoom traveling toward Fla, we stopped for breakfast in Kentucky. I ordered ham/eggs and the waitress, with an strong Southern drawl, "y'all want grits with that?" I said, "what are grits?" She said, "Y'all don't know what grits are?"

I didn't end up ordering them, but....I saw them from other orders, and they look like cream of wheat.

TIS

I tried them only once.... on a trip down to North Carolina.... I can't say I liked them much but the rest of that breakfast was awesome!

Where'd we eat (in some country type setting) that the food was really good??? Was is the 2 yolk egg place?

They also made chicken spread.

The first morning when I met you guys in Chicago.

A two yolk egg means four yokes. A 1 yoke egg is really 2 yokes. What the f**k was that all about? I was so confused that I wound up ordering a cheeseburger for breakfast! Remember?

I still can't figure that 1 yoke, 2 yoke shit out!

Right! That was the place.... I think they had grits on the menu.

EVERYONE was confused by the math....

Yeah. the YOKE was on us!

Ah yes, that was such fun. Am I the only one who thought it was quite cool getting that extra yoke??? When it comes to food "more" is better.

TIS

Yes TIS, I remember when the waitress was trying to explain the yoke / omelet thing to us, as soon as she said that basically you were really going to get double of what you ordered, you were very happy! And then you doubled your egg order once more!


And talk about weird food combinations. I believe that I had a cheeseburger and a side order of Grits!

No she doesn't cuz she doesn't like grits.

Nasty

But this is good

I don't know how weird this is, but am I the only one who loves chicken wings? Granted they're not real meaty, but you have 7-10 and you're full.




TIS

A friend turned me on to chicken lately... since I can now bake it myself I've tried making wings.... you're right - they don't have much to them.... I bought a package of 10 and it went in a few bites.

They're good to eat as appetizers, though.

They are good bbq'd

Not me. But as a kid I liked it on potatao chips.

What gave you that impression?

Hot wings are great! They're just incredibly fatty and caloric cuz they're deep-fried, and the "hot sauce" is basically just melted butter with hot sauce added to it... mmmm... awesome

Fried chicken wings are great, too - and I actually prefer them when they're a bit less meaty and almost overdone.

Anyway, did this topic turn into Random Food Whoring? (I was actually thinking of starting that )

Well, I figured some people like wings. My whole family thinks I'm odd because I prefer the wings and can eat them for a meal. I also don't mind the neck.

Since we're random food whoring, does anyone bread their chicken? Even wings. Lightly dip chickin in oil and add a tad of lemon juice, garlic salt (or bake with garlic cloves) and dip in Italian seasoned bread crumbs. Very tasty.


TIS

SC, try buying Oven Stuffer wings next time. They're a lot meatier.

I love grits. I eat them whenever I can. I bought some once to make at home, but nobody else would eat them, so I never bothered very often.

I like them with butter and salt and a splash of milk.

I Love Chicken Wings!

Flatmates think I am particularly perculiar because my favourite meal is basically the pasta (fusilli, the twirls) with cheese and tuna that I make for myself.

It's not weird at all to me. Ironic, though: one of my flatmates this year is a vegetarian and the other hates cheese. Go figure.

I'm gonna use the green beans that I have left and make Leather Britches.

Are you gonna make leather pants out of left over green beans, or is this a dish of some kind?

Is that a redneck receipe???


TIS

Hi TIS,

Leather Britches are green beans that I string up and let them dry out. Ane when they are all dried out I cook them for about 2-3 hours and they are delish.
