Schlack, Here's a link that might help you with those chicken pinwheels. If you already have this particular skill dialed just ignore this. made a decent fist of it but not perfect. will perfect the technique. poached the chicken and was a little bland. will fry next time. cooked up a big batch of pasta/pizza sauce today, marinaded tandori chicken and have pastrami seasoning in fridge. all set for the week!

I gallantly asked my wife for a productive and necessary task in preparing for the big feed this afternoon and was directed to french cut a bunch of green beans. I was told that it could be done in front of the teevee while watching football, which excited me a good deal... until I remembered that I don't watch football. But I did scare up the Sabata series at about 1/3 into the second one. Love that Lee Van Cleef! The third one is on now, with Sabata transformed into Yul Brynner (I keep expecting him to go all Egyptian on me). Not really watching so much, got started on the Mimosas - hark! Is that Western whistling I hear in Italian?

My sisters and I (there are four of us altogether) have been in an argument about what are the best potatoes to use for mashed potatoes. @ of us prefer the red rose potatoes, with the skins. One sister likes the russet, and one sister likes Yukon gold potatoes. I like the red rose potatoes, because they are better for diabetics, and with the red skins, they look very festive. I also add mashed turnips or rutabagas to my mash, and I use real butter and a bit of cream or half and half. One of my sisters adds garlic and sour cream to her mashed potatoes, too.

This in the news today... Avoid these Mashed Potato mistakes They say a mix of Russets and Yukon Gold, some waxy potatoes, some starchy. I like to add Rutabaga too, Scout, gives them a rich buttery flavor. You need to boil the Rutabagas separately though because the cooking time is not the same as potatoes.\ I just had a nice bowl of radishes for lunch, with pink Himalayan salt. Stir fried mixed greens and haricot verts for dinner. I had turkey yesterday.
