Good grief! I have been cooking since I was 8. Cooking. Not using
packets. I only bought the packets because I assumed it would recreate what
they serve in the restaurant. They don't.

She was born in this country but is Swedish on both sides of the family.

Speaking of nationalities in that way makes sense to Americans.

Besides, to you, doesn't "Swedish" mean "rutabagan"?

Technically, she is of Swedish decent. However, the terminology Julie
used is quite common. Many American born here will say they are Polish,
Irish, whatever. Nits not picked.

Well, they don't look the same. The picture of the sauce in the packet is
white. Like I said... What they served appeared to be a beef gravy with
some sort of dairy in it. But brown for sure.

See? You knew what I meant. She ate a lot of Swedish meatballs when
growing up so I know that at least in her household, they were commonly
eaten. But since neither of us have been to Sweden, we couldn't say for
sure.

You could substitute water for some or all of the cream. You bought
it, might as well try it. :-\

I didn't buy it for me. I bought it to use with the meatballs as I assumed
that was what they served in the cafe. But no. I will probably just get
rid of it because it doesn't sound very good. I should have looked at it
better in the store but at the point in time when I was looking at the
packets, all these people came up to get meatballs and I would have been in
the way had I not moved. For some reason, they had none with the other
frozen foods. They were in a low, free standing freezer and the sauce
packets were above it. I just grabbed two and went on. I'm sure they
couldn't have cost very much. No biggie.

Cream is not something I ever buy. I think perhaps I have bought it maybe
half a dozen times in the course of my lifetime for some recipe. I looked
into getting powdered cream but I would only need a very small amount and it
seems that it isn't sold that way. I will just use a beef gravy when I
serve them and add milk to it.

I would just assume that people wouldn't want to be smelling paint fumes and
such. Plus there isn't much parking the way it is so we don't need another
truck here right now. Granted, the guy I want to do the job lives right
around the corner from me but I think he'd still have to bring his truck
with the supplies. The guy on the other side has so many workers over there
right now, he is hogging up parking like crazy. Somebody told me that it
only takes a day to paint a house. If that's true, they need to tell him!
He and his friend have been working on the painting now for going on 4 days
I think. I am getting tired of it. He has been working on that house for
years as was the guy who owned it prior. I am beginning to think it will
never get done.

The *one* thing?! More like *one more thing* you do not do. We know
you won't handle raw chicken. You buy canned chicken instead. This
naturally leads to the fact you don't make chicken stock from scratch.
And the beat goes on...

Meatballs - any kind - are one of the easiest things on the planet to
make. It's obvious you really don't know how to cook.

Don't you dare "get rid" of that packet? Are you really that dumb?

It was supposedly the real recipe for their meatballs. Powdered
packets are ok sometimes and that probably tastes very close. You
didn't buy it for you but you bought it for your husband and he sounds
like a normal eater.

At least make it before you toss it. Let husband try it. He'll
probably like that taste better than any beef gravy that you whip up.

Parking on your street is not your problem. Don't worry about fumes
going next door. Most people use water-based paint now and no fumes
basically. Potential buyers looking next door will be happy to see
neighbors keeping up their houses.

> Somebody told me that it only takes a day to paint a house.

If a painting contractor ever tells you that, thank him for his time
and never call him again. No matter how small a house, or how many
people he brings in, you will get a crappy paint job if all done in
one day.

Outsides of a house need to be washed first, otherwise they will be
painting over dust and dirt and the job won't last very long. Then
comes scraping, sanding, caulking, priming raw wood,etc. All that
followed by 1-2 coats of a good brand of paint.

You make sure the preparation is done properly and a good brand of
paint is used or you WILL be sorry when you have to repaint again way
too soon.

I've been doing this for a living since July 1973 and I am one of the
high-priced painters. I know what I'm talking about here.

Also, everyone should get at least 3 estimates (they're free) and ask
all what they plan to do. Also references from friends help. Word of
mouth is the best advertising for any company.

Yep, the neighbors had painters painting their house yesterday and the house
is very close to my backyard. No smell whatsoever.

That makes no sense... there's a huge Irish, German, and Norwegian
population here... I've yet to see any Irish, German, and Norwegian
department stores. And most items sold at IKA are not from Sweden,
they're from China, India, Pakistan, and the Philippines.

Don't you know? She just likes to buy things then complain about them
without trying. She likes to throw things away.

Hmmm, I thought she said she donates food to the food bank. I'll bet
someone would be more than happy to get those packets of gravy mix.

Most recipes that call for cream work about as well with milk
instead... But I'd use water, I think a dairy based sauce with beef is
TIAD... actually I'd read the ingredients and probably use beer, and
maybe doctor it with herbs.

My neighbor had her house painted a couple of years ago. Also the fence
that separates our (small) property lines. I never even noticed they
were there. I was at home. No fumes, not a big deal.

My house was painted last year, I was inside they were outside - there
was no paint smell. I didn't smell paint when my next door neighbors
painted their exteriors either.

Julie isn't smart enough to do that.

All she does is decry about what she bought but "can't eat". She'd
rather buy stuff and throw it away than try to find another solution.
Merely so she can say she tried but ooooh! there was something wrong
with it.

I've never encountered anyone who ran into as much moldy bread as she
has. Oh, don't forget the guy wearing a turban sweeping the floor of a
store. It's obvious he was out to get her. Singled her out.

She's nuts. She doesn't know how to cook. She buys prepared stuff,
heats it up and then bitches about it. Things she hasn't even tried she
throws it away because she allegedly can't eat it. She's the ultimate
martyr. Seems to me last year she said her husband couldn't heat up
canned soup in the microwave. Somewhere in one of these threads I
remember reading her husband cooked some herbed carrots and then
actually helped with cooking dinner.

Are we supposed to believe this? Maybe he just wants to eat *real*
food. He may be cooking in self defense. I know I would.

That's because all the paints are now water based.

OK, an interesting enough aside. I think Feng Shui is important too,
though I'd be hard-pressed to scientifically quantify why.

Not really. People like me who aren't into dairy and dairy fat might be
impressed. People like my wife who love cream and its richness will
certainly notice. I have made recipes with heavy cream and butter and
they work out nicely, but when you cut back on the fat you need
something else to thicken it.

From the history of her observations here on their cuisine it's a
losing proposition year in and year out.

Given that I don't she where's she's on sacred ground to diss Julie.

Julie's finicky as heck, but she's genuine too.
