new: mnf november: *defrost yer turkey*
Comments (75)Hi Perennial! :O) Great to see you post, it HAS been awhile, huh? Baby's doing fine (her name is Lili), she'll be 1 in December...and we've got another one on the way in April (long story, and a true miracle!). I do like your idea, BTW...it's kinda like a white elephant, isn't it? Sounds like it'd be fun, in any case! Okay, Dan....here's the deal....I almost NEVER use a written recipe when I make soup! I'm a "what ever I darn well feel like" kinda gal. I only use recipes as *guidelines* when I'm baking...never cooking. Anyway...here's what I usually do when I make chicken soup (keep in mind, I make enough to feed 10 people or so!): I take about 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts; one large, chopped onion; 4-6 crushed garlic cloves(large ones); red pepper flakes (probably about 2 tsps); 2-3 chopped jalapeno peppers; fresh chopped oregano (or dried, probably about 1 tsp dried, a good fistful if fresh); salt & pepper......I boil all of that in a stock pot that's about 3/4 full of water. Boil it until the chicken starts falling apart, usually 1.5-2 hours. Then, I take the chicken out & shred it...pop it back in there, add bunches of chopped carrots & celery stalks, plus some more spices- paprika, cumin, tiny pinch of sage, curry.....and whatever else I feel like it needs. Let that boil for another hour, then I add either some cooked rice or uncooked noodles- just however much I want to fill in. Sometimes I like a lot of broth, sometimes I don't. That's basically it- just throw & go, is my motto. :o) Oh, and when there is a sick person in the house (with a cold or such), I usually go for more spice & more broth. I've even thrown some lemon balm in there, along with catnip & other "cold fighting" herbs. I don't think I cook the same soup twice. LOL...See MoreGame XL for November

Comments (59)My first guess for A1 was 'pedestrian sidewalk', but then decided that was redundant, 'pedestrian crosswalk' made more sense. For some dumb reason or another it took me longer to realize that B1 was names of states than it took me to figure out the answer. And I feel like I should have gotten C2, but I didn't. I just couldn't get past the word 'snot' , and when I made myself read it as 'tons', I had 'tons of clean air'. Knew that had to be wrong, but was the best I could come up with. And no way I'd ever get D1, I didn't even get the Tennessee part. Nor did I realize the symbol in D2 was Pi. When it was given as a hint, I got it right away. Although it still seems like it is incomplete, should have a building or something with it. So once again, I got all but two. Guess maybe that's not too bad. . . . . . Rusty...See Morekathy_t
