Brooklyn Back When - Open Thread

Danny - check your email for how to post your picture (a few options) -- it was too long to post here; I used up my posting for the week here, this morning. You'll have to get a Photobucket account.


Ciao to all -- have a blessed day.

Sorry Danny - I'm no help either - I work on a computer all day long but can't figure them out! I never attempted it as you can see by TinkerBell! Suzie where are yyyooouuuuuu??? Even Janet can help (and she's among the missing, where are you???? Janet????)

Patsy - we're all doing our share for the reunion.

Franny - she had it removed last year after having Jake - she was diagnosed with an ulcer at an early age (sometime after Raul died) but I bet all these years later it was gall bladder. Anyway whatever medicine she's on (long story, but the dr. left some stones - to quote you ladies "MEN") she's much, much better.

Back to work....

OK guys I'm off to check my email for the instructions Francesca sent me on how to do this picture thing. I have done this on other web sites with no problem. I started using a PC back in 1986 before they had a hard drive and there was no Windows so you had to know computer language to do anything. I thought I knew it all until this came up. See you later.
Thanks Francesca

Good Morning People. I am still here, but on my farms most of the time.

Maybe I haven't been on too much because I am still not sure if I can make it up for the reunion. Wahhhhhhhhhhh. We will see.
Sounds like it will be packed, lol, and am not sure if I can take it if it's hot, he he he.

Festina, can you send me the pictures you took when we went out & also at my sister's? I lost my camera and the pictures were STILL on it. Thanks.

OK, no one is here. Talk to you later Patsy & gang.

EASIER FOR US GUYS TO

COMMUNICATE

WITH YOU GALS

OK IT'S BACK TO HELL'S KITCHEN THIS WEEK

THE EGGPLANT PARM HAD TOO MUCH SAUCE

MY COATING: EGG-SALT-PEPPER-WHITE WINE
PARMESAN CHEESE-FRESH PARSLEY
DIP CHICKEN IN FLOUR AND THEN INTO MIXTURE.
HAVE TO HAVE EXTRA SAUCE WHICH IS NO PROBLEMO
WINE-CHICKEN BROTH-LEMON JUICE
ADDA LITTLE RICE PILAF AND SOME VEGGIES
BINGO.

NOW TOMORROW I'M TRYING A DISH WE'VE
HAD IN TWO DIFFERENT RESTAURANTS
MUSSELS IN GORGONZOLA SAUCE.

THIS WIFE HAS ONE IDEA HOW TO COOK IT
AND I HAVE ANOTHER. SINCE I'M COOKING
WE'LL TRY IT MY WAY:

BIG POT- ADD OIL TO COVER THE BOTTOM
AND CHOPPED GARLIC (WHO CARES HOW MUCH
SINCE WE'RE BOTH EATING IT
LIGHTLY BROWN THE GARLIC THEN ADD
WHITE WINE AND MUSSELS- STEAM UNTIL THEY OPEN.
REMOVE THE MUSSELS TO A BIG BOWL.
ADD SOME TOMATO SAUCE(NOT A LOT JUST TO TURN IT
PINK) TO THE LIQUID IN THE POT.
BRING TO A BOIL. PLACE MUSSELS IN THE DISHES
AND SPRINKLE THE GORGONZOLA CHUNKS OVER THEM
POUR THE HOT SAUCE OVER THE MUSSELS AND TOSS SOME
CHOPPED PARSLEY ON IT. FRESH BREAD.

My faith in the American public was restored when they voted for
Skinner on AGT. Daddy always taught me to route for the underdog;
and it warmed my heart that he won
