OMG ... YES!!! A leather whip. How did I miss that.






Oh, yeah, my wife borrowed it ... Ouch, ow, ooo, ow!

:D

I think there were also a couple of recipes which I'll publish. Just read back through the list and remembered them. Oh well, I'm slow but do bad work to compensate. :)

That's okay. After Ralph (aka "Houdini") went to the big hamster wheel in the sky, we got Crystal, who turned out to be the anti-Christ hamster. When we took her back to the pet store (yep, she was THAT BAD), we ended up with Lucy, a big poofball of a teddy bear hamster who also, unfortunately, likes to escape but *fortunately* is not very good at hiding. :D

Indonesian Corn Cakes
 

Here's the first of the recipes ... courtesy of osuche

-----

One can drained corn - crushed (use can or mortar & pestle)
1/2 tsp garlic powder - more if you're brave
1/2 tsp pepper - more if you're brave
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp sugar
1 whole egg
1 tbsp chili pepper - fresh if possible / 2 whole chilis
2 scallions or 1/4 onion
1 whole egg (it was repeated on the recipe ... don't know if that was a goof or not.)
1 tbsp flour

Mix all ingredients together (add flour & onions last). The batter will not be thick, but you can add more flour to thicken if you like.

Drop teaspoons of batter into fry pan coated with oil. Wait about 2-3 minutes (burner on high). Turn. Remove from pan when golden brown.

Serve.

Thank you, osuche. Sounds great. Will have to get my wife to try making it.

Peanut Sauce
 

Another gift from osuche.

-----

2-3 red tomatoes skinned (can sub can for whole tomatoes)
2 red bell peppers - sliced without seeds
1-2 red habenero peppers - chopped without seeds
2-3 garlic cloves
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1/2 jar peanut butter (creamy)
1/4 warm water
2 tbsp sweet soy sauce
1 lemon

Blend tomatoes, red ball pepper, habeneros and garlic clove in food processor or blender until liquid. Pour liquid into a sauce pan and add salt & sugar. Heat sauce on medium (careful not to burn tomatoes).

Add peanut butter and stir until mixture thickens. When ready to serve, add water, 2 tbsp sweet soy, and the juice of a lemon. Stir.

Best when served with chicken or tofu and rice. This is a tasty sauce for any meal.

More good sounding food.

OMG ... I first read, "A litany of good eaters we are for sure."





Come to think of it ... that works, too.

:D

Picky ones at that

You bet. If it doesn't fit or can't be cut to size ... I'll only try a few times to get it eaten. :)

That is soooo cool!

Wow...!!! I am so impressed with DB's inventory -- and impressed that a couple of people actually managed to avoid eating their See's candy bars. :D

The recipes came from my first trip overseas...have alot of history for me. And if you like spicy food, you'll love them.

I included mostly stuff from San Francisco (and the odd Death Valley bit), knowing the PF would cover Ohio. :)

Man...this was cool. I love you guys!

LOL! Awesome! This was a great idea and lots of fun to have participated in! :D

I'm looking forward to Box # 3 ...

Cool project...... altho I didn't find those panties from IWM!!!!! I think they got intercepted!!! :)

I confess to eating the maple sugar State of NH....... what a sugar rush!! hehe

Thanks DB for putting up the inventory. That was awesome!

I need more buckeyes. My 2nd graders saw it sitting on my desk and now they all want one.
