Conner, Koda & Me are praying for you! Good Luck tomorrow & speedy recovery.

I am just picking at the Football apetizers that we got for the game 2nite! I am not cooking...No way! Not today

Speedy Recovery to Conner. I ordered pizza and had hubby go pick it up. MMMMMMM good.

kdlmon · 01-20-2008, 02:13 PM

Husband out of town--so girls' night out! Dinner out (yay) and a movie.

janelles · 01-20-2008, 02:34 PM

Good Luck tomorrow, Hope it will go well, and he will back safe and sound at home. I have to go through this with Teddy very soon. Uhg
I made cabbage Rolls, and corn bread. My husband can just help himself, and doesn't have to miss the game. I'm thinking that I would like to eat at your houses though, your meals sound delicious.

I don't know .... cabbage rolls sound really, really good.

How do you make them and who are you rooting for in the games?

janelles · 01-20-2008, 03:24 PM

Hi
My husband was hoping that San Diego would win, but----they lost. Now, he is gearing up for the second game and is hoping that Green Bay will win. Please avid football fans, don't get mad at me, but I am not interested, so I head for the sewing room, where I made Tootsie a valentine dress, now maybe a St. Patrick's Day dress.
Cabbage rolls, are not hard to make. I mix hamburg, and ground pork, sometimes ground veal. Add a couple of eggs, garlic salt and pepper. Wrap that up in the cabbage, and layer them in a big pot. Between each layer I add sauerkraut. Then pour a big can of tomato juice over top, and add a few dabs of tomato paste. And that's it! You can let them simmer for hours. (Smells up the kitchen, though.) ha ha I really don't have any exact ingredients, just whatever I feel like doing. Everybody seems to like them.
Give it a try

I forgot the rice. Add rice in with the hamburg. That could have been a disaster.

We ordered Pizza Hut Mia pizzas. They are quite tasty.

Stella's mom · 01-20-2008, 03:45 PM

We're having chili con carne and cheezy corn muffins.....cream cheese brownies for desert

Janice, if I could sew ... and even though I LOVE football ... that's what I would love to do too. I really admire the seamstresses on YT, as there is SO much talent. I hope you will share a picture of the dresses when completed?

I think I will borrow this recipe, if you do not mind. It sounds wonderful and I know my husband would really enjoy it. Thanks so much !

simonandhallie · 01-20-2008, 05:58 PM

Awwww speedy recovery Connor! We will be thinking about you tomorrow. I had tacos for dinner

Nikki+2 · 01-20-2008, 06:08 PM

We ended up at a Mexican restaurant. I had shrimp enchiladas- yummy!

janelles · 01-21-2008, 05:54 AM

Hi RYorkies
I just wanted to tell you, that you have to get the cabbage leaves pliable, by dunking them in boiling water for a few minutes, or you will never be able to wrap them. When I first started making cabbage rolls, years ago, I did not know this.I decided to make them for company, I tried to wrap them and they would crack and break. I was cursing, and sticking toothpicks everywhere, in them. I called my Mom, who told me what to do. Hope this helps, if you didn't know.
Yes, I love to sew. I made my daughter's wedding dress, the flower girl and half the wedding party. It was a real challenge, I started it a couple of months ahead, she would gain a few pounds, lose a few pounds, what a fiasco! It had a v waistline, a scoop neck, and big puffy sleeves, (like the dress Lady Di wore) I'm not sure I would ever do it again.
Just try something simple, and you will have it down in no time.
Good Luck
Janice

janelles · 01-21-2008, 05:58 AM

Hi ryorkies
It's me again. I would love to show the pictures of the dresses that I make for Tootsie, but I don't know quite how to do it. (Afraid to ask cause I don't want to look like a dumbell, and am not all that computer savy.)

Please do not be afraid to ask .... we all need help learning.

Hi Janice,
Here is a link that will help you to post pictures. I have just purchased a new Macbook and have not found a program that will work for me yet, but I do have a message out to our resident guru for help.

I hope to see your pictures soon!
