choclate ice cream?


  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup cocoa
  • 3 tbsp corn starch
  • 2 cups milk or light cream
  • 1/2 cup choclate chips
  • 1 tsp vinelli


  • If this really is an ice cream recipie, then those experimenting with it would have put the ingredients into the proper mixer and make it.

    28 July 2006

    Breakfast: Bowl of oatmeal (no milk) with splenda and brown sugar, a toasted English Muffin and a couple of small rolls (left over from the office luncheon of yesterday - I didn't attend since I didn't work yesterday) and a cup or two of coffee.

    Lunch: South Beach Diet Caprese Style Chicken with Broccoli (Breast Srips with rib meat in a Marinara Sauce with ricotta sand mozzarella, served with broccoli)

    Dinner: [projected to be a salad...]

    and so it was! A salad, that is...


    My wife went to the local McDonald. She went to the drive up and ordered:

    "One Asian salad with broiled chicken and one club salad with crispy chicken."

    The clerk replied "did you say two Asian salads, one with crispy chicken and one with broiled?" "

    No! I said one Asian salad with broiled chicken and one Club salad with crispy chicken!"

    "Thank you, please pull up to the next window."



    She got home and I got the two salads out. The highly competient staff at McDonals had given her two Asian salads. That's fine for her, she likes the green crap they put on those Oriental -er- Asian salads. I don't!


    She was all upset and appologizing and I was telling her "it isn't your fault! They fucked up at McDonalds! Anyway, next time we go to the Wyat Earp McDonalds, we're going inside! Not that that helps much; the last time I ordered "Asian salad with broiled chicken and Club salad with crispy chicken" they screwed it up and I ended up having to tell the "crew" a couple of times what I wanted...

    Rant off...

    27 July 2006

    Breakfast: Aunt Jamami pancakes and sausage, coffee.

    Lunch: Dillions for salad and a DP...

    Dinner: Crockpotted Beef Strogneoff and a glass of water and a Mic and later, a gin and tonic...

    Wednesday, July 26, 2006

    26 July 2006

    Breakfast: Cream of wheat, two slices of whole wheat toast with mar-jar-in and a cup of coffee.

    Lunch: Casey's Cowtown with the Lions: Chicken Fried Chicken, mashed potatoes with white gravy, corn and a roll. I had a glass of DP with lunch and had to wait so long for the refill that the little bits of chicken and potatoe and roll I was hoarding were quite cold by the time our waitress managed to get around to bringing me the 2nd glass. I'm thinking of switching to ice water in the future since I can always refill from the flash on the table. Aside from that, the service was quite adequate. (Can you say "damnation by faint praise? Of course you can!")

    Dinner: Apllebes for the chicken/steak faheti combo with rice and cheese and a very decadent cupcake, vinilla ice cream and rich choclate sauce. I had a glass of ice water with lots of lemons squeezed into the water and made the sacriface of drinking the "mistake"...

    Applebys, where we were placed at a table without a waitress. It's rare that Applebys has service worst than Casey's but there you have it! Atg least at Casey's, we had a waitress who came around. We flagged down a waitress who took our food and drink orders. Then, the "assigned" waitress showed up. The food menu went through but the drink order was completely screwed up. They brought the wrong kind of wine to Kathie but rather than return it, I made the sacriface of drinking it myself...

    It was a glass of Mountain Home White Zin (my favourite!)

    It's sad when the service at Casey's is better than the service at Applebys...

    The Guam Hilton recipies for "Long Island Ice Tea" and "Mudslide"

    ______I wrote the Guam Hilton and asked about their recipies. I don't have a copy of the letter I sent but I do have their lovely reply. This can be read at: http://showcase.netins.net/web/chargerhorse/Hilton1991.pdf
    ______Here are two other recipies, from Guam, for the same two drinks:
    http://users.pld.com/mwbell/recipies.htm
    ______I'll have to "gin up" a pdf version of this file and save it and reference and I'll probably just "cut and paste" the actual recipies...

    25 July 2006

    Breakfast: Aunt Jamami pancakes and sausage, a cup of coffee and a DP.

    Lunch: A McDonald's club salad and part of a six-piece of McChicken "nuggets" and a medium "Diet Coke".

    Monday, July 24, 2006

    24 July 2006

    Breakfast: We went out...two eggs over medium, hash browns, whole wheat toast with grape jelly and two-three cups of coffee and a glass of water.


    Lunch: Two large hotdogs on two slices of whole wheat bread and a DP.


    Post Blood donation "snack": A small bowl of watered down potatoe soup and several carrots and a couple of cream filled cookie thingies. Also, a cup of weak iced tea and a couple of cups of water.


    Snack: Some folks came in to work on our radar (WSR-88D) and brought in fresh Krispi Kreme donuts. I can now see why folks love those fuckers: when fresh they are irrestable and seem to meld in my mouth. Not exactly what a diabetic needs to be eatting. However, four of these fuckers proved to be completely irrestable.

    Dinner: Healthy Choice Beef Pot Roast (with Gravy, Carrots, Roasted Potatoes and Apple Raisin Crisp). They seem to have forgotten the "Raisins" and I can only "THANK YOU!" and hope this is a trend!

    Pre-Bed snack: this and that and nothing much of anything...no booze...

    a recipie for "Homemade Bailey's Irish Cream"

    Homemade Bailey's Irish Cream as copied from Irish-recipies

    Ingredients:

    1 pint half and half
    2 eggs
    1 1/2 cup Irish whiskey (Canadian Club works too)
    2 tblsp. chocolate syrup
    dash cinnamon
    1 tsp. vanilla


    In blender, combine all the ingredients. Blend until mixed well,
    serve cold. Stores up to two weeks in the fridge.

    I'm going to try this but the notion of raw eggs bothers me. I think I'll go with "egg beaters" instead.

    Breakfast: Owens® "Sausage Gravy & Biscuits" (White Gravy with Pork Sausage & 2 Biscuits) and a can of DP. (I had initially tried going to McDonald's but the drive up line extended damn near to the road. I then drove around and thought of parking. However, the parking lot was quite full and more customers were entering. I decided "fuck this shit" {sort of} and drove over to Bugger -er- Burger King. There wasn't much of a line but they're doing road destruction -er- re-engineering and it simply was too much of a hassle to go in...

    I bought the Owens barf-on-a-biscuit at the 14th Street Dillions...)

    Kathie's chicken in soy...

    Kathie took some chicken thighs and removed the skin. Then, she put this in a large pan, put in maybe 2 cups of soy sauce and covered the chicken with water. She took a piece of ginger root and chopped up maybe 1/3 cup of the ginger root. She also added some sesime seeds and several tablespoons of chopped up garlic.

    This was brought to a boil for seveal minutes, covered and allow to boil for several minutes and then simmered for about an hour. After that, we brought the liquid to a boil for several more minutes.

    You can buy the ginger root at any good Oriental -er- "Asian" food store.

    Breakfast: Aunt Jamami pancakes, sausage and a cup of coffee...

    Lunch: At Casey's: a large hamberger, with strips of bacon, french fries and two Diet Pepsis. (Unlike last week, the first glass actually tasted like a Diet Pepsi. Unfortunately, the waitress is a bit overworked and I had to remind her of my free refill twice; at Montana Mike's, a fresh glass would have been brought out before I'd finished my first glass. Mike Casey has still got a continuing problem with his "wait staff"...)
