DR Jose, looks like you drove right by Sioux City.  You probably didn't notice.

Whew!  Caught up at last.

Read all about MR BK's nearly flat tire - DR RLP's new toy - DR RODZINSKI's anniversary and trip to LI - saw tulips and daisies - read about DR CILLALIZ's new kitchen AND her brief flirtation with a handsome actor - whew!!!

DR CILLA LIZ - if they have one in your area - the Tuesday Morning Stores have great bargains on home furnishing accessories and sometimes have beautiful area rugs at great prices!

The best things are the non-advertised clearance items!

Hmmm, there is one that just opened. I had no idea what it was, I just saw "Tuesday Morning" on the outside of the building. I did find a rug today at Lowe's.  I'll post a photo when I get caught up on the posts

Actually, I think we went to the Applebee's there.  -We went to a lot of Applebee's on that tour.

Oh, yes!  Tuesday Morning.  The selection can be hit and miss at times, but if you get there early enough you can find some great items.  They will close for restocking every couple of weeks, so each time you go back you can browse through different things.

I believe Ms. Lauren Bacall does TV commercials for them.

DR SWW - Have you ever made the Greek Lemon Roasted Potatoes?  My favorite accompaniment with leg of lamb.  -But a really good rice pilaf is good too... as is yanni, the Greek-style green beans.  -Not the Greek-style, long-haired keyboard artiste.

;)

Do you have a recipe for the potatoes?

Well, here is Martha Stewart's recipe.  I really do love these potatoes.  When done correctly, the potatoes develop a "shell", and then the insides just melt away once you break into them.  And all that lemon and oregano.  You can roast these in the oven at the same you do the lamb.  Or if you have a big enough oven and roasting pan, you can do them at the same time.[/size]

So simple, and sooo good.

Guess I should have read a little farther. Thanks DR Jose

You're welcome, DR Cillaliz.

*The Greek place I used to go to in Richmond would make them on the weekends.  Sometimes, I would just make a lunch from them and some green beans.  Simple and good.

DR Dakotacelt - regarding the discussion yesterday, the Sioux are in South Dakota. They are called the Lakota Sioux. They actually came close to shooting Lewis and Clark near Yankton on their way up the Missouri. They were once throughout this area hence Sioux City, Sioux Falls etc. they call this area Siouxland. I read somewhere they are talking about not doing that anymore, but I've never heard anyone say they are offended by it.  

I grew up in an area where a large number of white settlers were massacred by Inkpaduta and a band of his followers. He was a Lakota Sioux as well. I learned it as he was just a renegade. Now they are teaching the whole story of how he was treated and his brother or another relative killed shortly before the settlers were killed. Anyway, they call it the Spirit Lake Massacre. Just thought I'd point that out

We have a Greek Orthodox Church in Sioux City that has the most wonderful dinners several times a year. The lines are huge and they have a bakery set up. All the food made by the congregation. They put out a great cook book last year, it's in a box somewhere, hope to find it sometime soon.

DakotaCelt, that is appalling, I can't believe you were treated with such disrespect! That sounds like a story for the local news if I ever heard one.

They pooh-poohed it...

I had heard bits and pieces. The Dakota Sioux up here prefer being called Dakota...


It was after 1862 revolt in Minnesota and they pushed out of the Minnesota River Valley into the Red River Valley.

University of North Dakota has been embroiled in a nickname debate for years.. It quite the controversy up here.

BTW, DR Cilla, my grandmother is originally from Bridgwater, IA

I love me some Greek Food Festival Food.  The Greek Orthodox church in Richmond, VA, has a wonderful annual festival.  Huge turnout of people for all the goodies.  And the Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Falls Church, VA, also has a nice festival.  And then there's St. Catherine's in DC... and... and...

I have been through Fargo. After my first year in law school, my parents, my aunt and I drove to Alaska. The way out was via the Black Hills, Yellowstone, the Canadian Rockies, then to Prince Rupert and the ferry. My Aunt flew back, my parents and I took a cruise and then drove back straight across Canada through Edmonton and Saskatoon then down through North Dakota, South Dakota and home.

Do they play toss the ring on Mount Olympus or Pin the Snake on Medusa's head?  I thought those games were great in the kids zone

Yes.  Although, the "game" I like watching the most is "Let's try to walk a straight line after drinking a couple of bottles of retsina and having a couple of shots of ouzo."

SLINGS AND ARROWS had a wonderful beginning to its new series by tying up the ends from last season.  It is such a neat show, and it's nice to learn once again that pretentious twits who think they're actors exist in the professional world as well as other spheres.  After that, BLEAK HOUSE started rolling toward its denouement, and I forget if there are one or two more episodes to wrap up this epic.  

It's been Mozart, Dickens, and a Shakespeare Festival today.  Thank God I had DATE MOVIE to bring me down to the level of American pop culture these days.

The problem with these so-called spoof films of today is that they are like a sketch comedy TV show, sometimes not as funny.  They all hope to invoke Airplane, but they don't actually learn anything from Airplane - Airplane was spoofing a genre, a specific genre, and while there are outrageous and outlandish gags every minute, they are always true to the genre they're spoofing, and at the film's core are two characters you actually like and care about.  That is the difference.

Show was decent today, although I am once again going to have to talk to the third actor strongly - he's now playing an entirely different play than everyone else, and the sad part of it is he has no clew, no clew at all.  We had about a half-house, which is very good for a Sunday.

Dinner with Pogue and Larry Drake was great, and we laughed and laughed and just when we thought we could laugh no more, we laughed again.
