After the last reunion our class has decided not to wait another 10 years, likely we will have another one in five.

You take a nice eye of round. Roast it until tender. Let cool. Cube cooled meat or pull apart into nice sized chunks.
To the pan drippings add cider vinegar and pickling spices. Fold in corn starch or flour dissolved in water until thickened as gravy. Add meat.
Let sit overnight in fridge. Serve over glace* the next day.

*Glace are a kind of heavy, boiled potato dumpling, filled with buttered toast squares.

Yum!

I will use astral projection to occupy a seat at THE BRAIN FROM PLANET X this afternoon.....

I am on my way.

I thought I spotted you the other day, JRAND--or at least your aura.

Jeanne, did you post your rating of THE BRAIN over at the New York Times site?

You really were pretending to cook

Hey, don't knock Hamburger Helper. Tonight, I am having a can of Beef Stroganoff!

So, DR TCB, I'm roasting the eye of round tomorrow. . . can you make for dinner on Sunday at seven?

I stopped on my way home from dropping DM, to pick up a pint of wonton soup and an order of steamed dumplings. (It's soooo nice to have a take-out Chinese restaurant within walking distance now).

No, I'm sorry I can't make it, but I would love a rain check.

Take one piece of bread, put a piece of bologna on top, spread a layer of Hellman's on that, put another piece of bread on top of that.

If it is for you, eat as is....if company is coming, cut corner to corner to make a triangle.

Serve.

Actually I had never had it before now. It is the latest in the line of Campbell's Chunky Soups. This is from their latest line, Chunky Fully Loaded.

And to be fair, the can says that is Stroganoff Style Beef Soup.

It isn't real Stroganoff, but it isn't bad for a can.

When I am on Vicodin, you really don't want me using knives or ovens.

Thank you for reminding me, TCB. I checked the NYTimes a couple days ago, looking for their review, and completely forgot that they had a rating system. It is done now--a big 5 stars, natch!

At least you are eating which is very important to do before taking the Vicodin. Thank goodness it doesn't make you sick.

Fantastic! The first two people who rated it, both gave it one star each. So, it has taken a while to climb out of that cellar.

Thank you all for your kind remarks about my prom pics. I was never a shutterbug and don't really have a lot of pics. The only pics I have of BK are the few from the prom and then a couple he sent me in his STOP THE WORLD costume. I brought three of the prom pics on the trip. There really isn't much else. Sorry, Mike.

I am remembering to eat AND to drink lots of water. Actually these anti-inflammatory pills are worse on the stomach than the Vicodin.
