It's surprising Douglas would worry about Symington much less introduce her to 400 people who didn't know she existed.

 

Douglas is a slime ball.

 

1st point is both amusing and worth thinking about. The 2nd is wasted space. "Slime ball"? Really? What, exactly, is the point of posting such nonsense? It certainly won't change votes. Articulate a bit, eh? Or, take your graffiti elsewhere. Haik does a good job of raising issues and fostering good discussion. Crap like that is an insult to what goes on here. Although, Haik's general good nature might support your right too post uselessness. I on the other hand, do not.

Now, enough of that. On to actual content. What are voters to think of a legislator who blames the governor for not getting enough done while in office? Is it not the job of the legislature to enact laws to get things done? It seems a precarious perch on which to rest one's campaign. Thoughts?

 

Ha!

That has got to be the lamest and weakest attempt to change the subject I've ever seen. Keep trying.

 

I generally appreciate all comments unless they're threatening or obscene.

Aw, pipe down or I'll kick yer ass, ya sunuvabitch.

(But first, can I have some more of those really yummy stuffed-grape-leaf-thingies? pleeeeeeeez....? I'm still having dreams about those....)

 

Poopsie's Unbelievable Grape Leaf Lamb Dolmas Recipe...

Mix:
2 containers of fresh ground lamb.
1 bunch of chopped cilantro
3/4 cup of any rice
1 teaspoon of salt
1/2 teaspoon of pepper
3-4 gloves of diced garlic
1 med. onion diced
2 tablespoon of tomato paste
mint optional (it wasn't in the one's at the BBQ)

prep your leaves by runing it under hot water for 5 min., or boiling in a pot for a couple of minutes. you rid of the salt and soften the leaf that way (you could also use fresh leaves, if available).

lay down the grape leaf (smooth side down) on a flat surface. place a tablespoon of meat in the middle of the leaf. neatly wrap the meat in the leaf. make sure the finished product is tight and neat, and meat is not sticking out. don't put too much meat, or you'll have a hard time wrapping it. if you have run out of leaves, just cook the meat as is. shape it into a ball and put it in the pot.

TIP: when you put all the dolmas in the pot, place a ceramic plate upside down on top of the dolmas, and gently pour cold water covering dolmas. cook at high heat, 25-30 minutes, until rice is cooked to your liking.

REMEMBER, you can put other ingedients, or put less or more of the listed ingredients.

some people prefer no tomato paste, others include olive oil in the meat mix.

have fun, and make sure you don't overcook it. rice is a good indicator when dolma is ready.
BON APPETIT!

 

the best rice to use is basmati.
