Hothouse rhubarb.
Comments (21)Linda, German-Russians lived in distinct & separate villages in Russia. They brought their 16th century German with them to Russia but as time went on each village developed its own dialect. You'll have a difficult time getting 2 German-Russians from different villages agreeing on what the proper German word for "aunt" is much less rhubarb. When they immigrated to America they tended to congregate by village into certain areas of the US. My village, Norka, practically moved the entire village to Portland, Oregon. Mid-western German-Russians came from different villages & their speech patterns are very different. Texas' German-Russians speak yet a different dialect. Their language is mixed with Russian, Polish, Slav, even some mid-eastern. It's a mess for genealogists & cooks alike. /tricia...See MoreDoes anyone know why Subway doesn't put mayo on the bread?
Comments (53)LindaC, now you're talking Elery's language. He spent his teen years working in a small neighborhood grocery owned by an Italian family. Now we sometimes go to GB Russo's and he gets a sandwich from the deli, much like you describe, but with a special "dressing" that seems a lot like vinegar and oil with herbs to me. The capicola is too spicy, the raw onions give me heartburn, even if I pick off the hot peppers the residue remains and I don't like vinegar and oil dressing, LOL. So, I'll pass, but Ashley and Elery think they've gone just this side of heaven. (grin) Ashley likes the addition of mortadella on hers, and as far as I can see, that's bologna! I've had Jimmy John's once and that was enough, and the only sub joints here now that I've moved is Subway, Mancino's and Jimmy John's. They all have way too much bread and not enough "stuff", so if there's no other choice I'll throw away the top half of the bread and eat the rest of the sandwich. I do the same thing with most restaurant sandwiches anyway, everything now has seemed to go to "artisan" bread and it's inches thick, far more bread than filling.

Comments (45)Thanks PKGuy for responding to ivamae's question. You would definitely be more familiar with this area than I am as I don't really go to that area. My husband may have been able to answer this as he usually goes golfing at Lakeside at least once or twice a year. Ivamae, you're right, it is neat to see the hot air balloons on the calm mornings and evenings. We see the mountains every clear morning on our way to work, and sometimes get a little too used to seeing them to appreciate their beauty. mande...See MoreHappy Thanksgiving from this Canadian
Comments (23)Thank you, I love my Northern neighbors, it's the only time I get to say that I live in the South, LOL. Here it was pumpkin pie, cheesecake, chocolate pie, homemade ice cream. Oh yeah, we had turkey too, LOL. Amanda woke up throwing up but came anyway and napped on the couch while the kids watched "How The Grinch Stole Christmas" courtesy of Netflix DVD. Ashley had one of those troublesome gallbladder attacks so she didn't eat much either. Madison played with her cousins, Mom and Elery had a couple of glasses of wine. We had lots of leftovers too, so we made up some plates and sent them to Ashley's co-workers who were stuck working emergency today and Kevin, who is pulling a double shift. CLBlakey, it was 55F and sunny here, a lovely Thanksgiving Day. With a wonderful husband, both my daughters and all my grandkids, I have a lot to be thankful for. Annie...See Morecookebook
