My coworker laughed at me, but one day I brought cold cooked, shelled, shrimp with cocktail sauce. Tasty. I also look forward to lunch when I have a fruit salad made with fresh cantaloupe, strawberries, watermelon, seedless grapes, and sometimes, in season, fresh blueberries.
Nabisco chipsters and a glass of chocolate milk made with PDQ.........yummm.....and then for dessert, maybe a Milkshake candy bar.
I love the googly eyes, um, on the bananas.
they don't look like anything i'd like to put into my mouth, but then again neither do steamed clams
Anybody remember Sprinkle Spangles? Anybody? It was a cereal made of star shapes, sprinkles and lots of sugar. Beautiful rocket fuel.
I just found some cookies that are a lot like Magic Middles at a truck stop in Italy. They're called Grisbi. Google them online.
Everyone's talking about quinoa and I still hadn't tried it, so I made some last night and brought for lunch today. It turned out really really well. It's kind of a sweet salad that's good hot, warm, cold...whatever. So works well for lunch. Just boiled some quinoa, added cinnamon to taste a tsp or so of brown sugar and a pinch of salt and then chopped up two pears drizzled with lemon juice to keep them from browning and stirred it up. It's like a dessert--so tasty.
My dad used to put pig's tails in the sauce on Sunday....he & I were the only ones who would eat them. Haven't had them in years, but I do remember they were good!
@tweetypez have you been looking in my dining room window? Aside from pig tails, steamed clams are one food I dream about and stalk at every opportunity! It's foods like this that keep me from going vegetarian ;~)
When my Grandmother used to roast a pig for Serbian Orthodox Christmas the tail, along with the ears, used to get done ahead of the rest, so we kids always got a "free sample".
It was the best part.
@purpleceline, thanks! Do try them; minimum effort, maximum deliciousness.
This looks fantastic. I will have to try it-- kudos to your efforts, it looks like they turned out incredibly.
