toast; don't let anyone else sell you on this minced beef in bechamel stuff

I've heard of this, but oddly, my mother called cabbage rolls (ground beef &
pork in cabbage leaves simmered in tomato sauce) "pigs in a blanket".

Then quit letting them read Usenet. This isn't your private little
chat room, ya know. If you want a
nicey-nice-Mary-Sunshine-blow-sugar-out-your-ass newsgroup, migrate to
Yahoo - there are PLENTY of moderated groups there.

But Om... there are cooks... and there are cooks. Depends on who is
cooking as to what the end result is... which may well be how the
anacronysm became popular!

nudge, nudge, wink, wink.

Must admit, there are some dishes my Mum used to make which certainly
looked as though they had been extruded from some orifice I'd rather
not know about!
And my MIL's gravy is utterly disgusting. Wouldn't even put it in the
bin for fear of contaminating the rubbish!! (Lumps and clots of flour
like you would not believe)
So it's really no wonder some nicknames come into being.........

.....and I'd rather not know what nicknames any of my disasters have
been named!
(Only a week ago I made the Hershey's supreme chocolate cake, put it in
a different pan and the thing erupted all over the inside of my
oven............ still tasted ok, what was left that is... but it sure
didn't look pretty. Kids dubbed it Choc Vesuvius... hmmm)

I hate to tell you this, but the kidlets are exposed to worse than "cuss
words" on a daily basis. If you don't want them reading this, then don't
let them read it. YOU and their PARENTS are the one in control of the
computer, or aren't you? Maybe you let them run all over you and then worry
about what someone might say to offend them? Controlling little brats, are
they?

Get over it. SOS = Shit on a Shingle. Maybe you should sign them up to
serve in the military; then they can get tough and learn some new words.

Dad wasn't kidding; he used to take a baked potato to school in
Pennsylvania. It was a hot potato and he'd hold it in his gloved hands to
keep himself warm. Then he'd eat it cold for lunch His mom would tuck a
packet of salt in his pocket so at least it wasn't a dull, boring cold baked
potato LOL

Then you would like 'Bubble and Squeak' a fry up of cabbage and potatoes. I
once asked the origin of the name and was told if you eat that much cabbage
that is what your insides would do.
