Just stopping by to say good morning.

Nasty day here in central Florida....but MUCH better than 4-6 inches of snow.

Hard to believe the party is only a week away and that you dont know all of the secret surprises yet.

Ok...that was my real reason for popping in. I has to stretch my "taunting muscles".

Thanks for the Taunting...See you next week!!

Paul, I will be there on Sunday Night. Sorry to hear about the complication with your finger, hope they don't have to do more surgery.

 

[kathrna]

Howdy peeps.

Howdie, Paul!

I am sorry to hear that the finger is not healing properly.

I would love the recipe!

We have probably 3" of the white stuff on our deck. DS is rounding people up to go sledding. Too cold for me!

Afternoon all - very yucky here today, no snow yet, but I think there is a chance of an inch or so later on tonight. It's all good as long as Tuesday is good weather, which it looks like it will be. I'm not a good flyer in bad weather.... Actually I'm not a good flyer at all, every little bump scares me.

We did some final trip shopping, the usual fun stuff - sneakers, socks, razors, ect... fun, fun!

Paul - sorry to hear about the finger, hope it gets better before next weekend. We have a NY reputation to live up to!!! We will be at MVMCP on Sunday as well.

Cheddar Cheese Soup Recipe - original recipe came from the recipe thread on DISboards.

Cheddar Cheese Soup

¼ lb smoked bacon, finely chopped
1 medium red onion, cut into ¼ inch pieces (I dice smaller)
½ cup finely chopped celery
½ cup finely chopped carrots
3 tbs. all-purpose flour
3 cups whole milk (I use ½ 2% and ½ heavy cream)
2 cups chicken stock
12oz. grated white cheddar cheese
3 dashes Tabasco
½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
½ cup Moosehead Canadian Ale, room temperature (I just use ale I can find)
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tbs. finely sliced chives (I usually omit)

I find it easiest to finely chop the bacon by freezing it first.

Cook the bacon in a large heavy bottomed, non reactive soup pot over medium heat until wilted not browned. (I try to lightly brown, I can’t get it to brown like the recipe indicates.) Add onions, celery and carrots; cook until translucent and bacon has crisped. Sprinkle in flour and stir consistently for 2 minutes. Stir in milk and stock a little at a time, blending well to ensure no lumps. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 15 minutes.

Remove from heat and whisk in cheese, Tabasco, Worcestershire and ale. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serve with your favorite bread and top with chopped chives.


It is actually very easy.

Thanks for posting, Anne.

One question: what is a "non-reactive soup pot"?

I use an enamel dutch oven - its the metals that can change the taste of foods.

I finally got the iron-on on my pink hoodie. I put it right below the hood it looked perfect. I forgot about how long my hair was and it covered the DAP logo. So I went out and got my hair cut. I have been wanting to get my hair cut for awhile.

What a fabulous reason for a haircut!
I hope you feel refreshed with your new do and your packing and trip down go well.

Thanks, but I can find the recipe online. I just really wanted the soup!

I once had beer soup with blue cheese. Or was it blue cheese soup with beer? hhmmm... I really llike blue cheese, but I don't really care for bitter beer. It was hard to eat.
