Unsure as to whether or not to do this (seeing the distress of some other
posts), but here goes briefly... Glasswalker Upper East Tennessee, USA Been cooking for almost 30 years now. Recently remembered that Usenet has more than just binary groups. Enjoys trying to come up with good Eastern European dishes but am probably really ignorant on the subject. Potatoes are always my back up (part Irish, so it's not my fault). Hope to stay around and learn and share with everyone. Thanks! -Glasswalker- |

Not yet. I basically got back into Usenet after years of leaching from the
web interface with EasyNews. Felt like it was time to give something back. I honestly don't remember how I stumbled across RFC. I'm glad I did, though. -Glasswalker- "Goomba38" > wrote in message . .. > Glasswalker wrote: >> Unsure as to whether or not to do this (seeing the distress of some other >> posts), but here goes briefly... >> Glasswalker >> Upper East Tennessee, USA >> Been cooking for almost 30 years now. > > "Hey There" from Georgia. > Have you seen the RFC webpage that ChattyCathy organizes? > http://www.recfoodcooking.org/index.html > > Goomba |

Wasn't too bad, but I think it could have been better. I made a recipe (I'll post it as soon as I can find the paper it was scrawled on while cooking it) that uses pirogi, kielbasa, peppers and the kitchen sink. I also recall trying to make something that was like polenta, but turned out rather horrid. 'Authentic' stroganoff using buckwheat kasha wasn't a hit, but I enjoyed it. It's just one of those areas that you find yourself attracted to it in most every way, but there's no good reason for it. -Glasswalker- |

IMO: not trimming sticks out like a sore thumb when you're a bottom poster because you make readers scroll down too far for your response. Please understand, I'm not accusing *you* of it.... but poor trimming is a common bottom poster's mistake. With top posting, it doesn't matter if you trim or not - readers who are familiar with the thread can see the reply without searching for it and readers who aren't familiar with the thread can continue down to familiarize themselves with it. That's why I don't care how you post, but please be judicious if you choose to bottom post. Welcome to rfc! -- See return address to reply by email |

Learn something new every day. However, when growing up, and being told by my mother that there was Bohemian blood in the line she was not meaning it this way. She meant from the Bahamas, and there was a possibility that one of our ancestors had land down there. So I guess Bahamian, maybe? (Not enough coffee, yet.) She was also known to butcher words, and not even realize it. -- -Glasswalker- "... anything defined surely loses its truth, for it becomes unmalleable and unworkable.

So have you been attempting to make food from Eastern Europe without knowing it wasn't in the Bahamas? LOL It is time to research some island recipes :) Sidenote: Bohemia, was a forest rich area which could provide the heat that was required to make the gorgeous Bohemian crystal and glassware that region is well known for. |
