Stop bragging. At least you didn't include a picture this time like you did with the lobster. |

was trying to describe grits to my 7th graders last week |
could you try to explain it too me instead? heard of it, still can't quite fathom what it could be?
btw, cooked me up a "roast" lamb the other day. my oven ceased to work after 10 minutes of cooking, so im thinking " oh shizzer, i am not wasting this very expensive bit of sheep. so i shoved it in a big pot, lowlow heat for 2 hours, with loads of salt and rosmary and "wallah!" almost like a bought one! it turned out perfect, complete with pan fried spuds, carrots, and broccolli and of course, awesome gravy! so a pot roast works just as good i think, dont need no oven at all ! |

You really can find anything on the internet... there are entire websites devoted to grits!!

1) What are grits?
Grits are made from the milling of corn kernels. The first step in the process is to clean the kernels; then, the grains are steamed for a short time to loosen the tough outer hull. The grain kernel is split, which removes the hull and germ, leaving the broken endosperm. Heavy steel rollers break up the endosperm into granules, which are separated by a screening process. The large-size granules are the grits; the smaller ones become cornmeal and corn flour. |
Have you ever had corn porridge? I guess they're sorta like that... but white instead of yellow.
Best I can do for ya mate. |

I've got some mouldy jam, four pots of the pickles that come with takeaway pizza, and some pouches of diarrhoea medicine.
Any chance I can knock up a decent dinner out of that lot? |

Maybe you could leave the pickles out the fridge for a few days and consume them, then yuo'll probably need the bung bum medicine. |

You can go to any butcher in any supermarket and pick out a chunk of beef. Just dont let them chop it up.
Some places you can buy Australian beef which is much much cheaper. I have a nice 1 kilo roast defrosting in my fridge as we speak. Cost 10,000 |

I made homemade yoghurt yesterday with cow's milk- it came out terrific, using a box and a heating pad. Today I have goat's milk yoghurt "yogging" in the box.
The cool thing about making yoghurt is that you can have a steady supply of the best yoghurt all of the time- just use some of the existing batch as a starter for the next.
Sorry- just wanted to share. |

Sharing's what it's all about.
We're just about to make a black bean lobster stir fry. |
