Makes a great shish-kabob too. Let me know if you want the full recipe.

Pico and ME · 09-24-2008, 04:13 PM

Ive never done shish-kabobs, but I'm willing to try them out. Do I need to go out and buy the kaboby things or is there something else I could use instead?

Bamboo skewers, they cost a couple bucks for a hundred in the grocery store. Be sure to SOAK them in water before you use them. This is especially important when grilling.

Are you affected by msg?

BigV · 09-24-2008, 05:12 PM

I'm guessing it's the S in msg.

Dangit. I can't remember the name now, but Dad used to have a container of "spice" that was *just* msg. If I remember correctly, it was a red cylinder with white lettering.... catchy title .. that I can't recall... grrrr....

The stuff tasted like salt, but much ... wetter... it just melted in your mouth, and not as salty as salt.

Accent!

My semi-dyslexic nature thought that read "Cadaver's" at first.

lol

My MIL likes to shop rummage sales for birthday and Christmas gifts. I dont care but it hasn't endeared her to the boys.

My late great Aunt Alice used to buy knock-off stuff for us at the local street market. One year I got an annual (a book, in case you don't have them over there) which was a year out of date. In later years we'd often get a pair of tights (pantyhose) and a packet of handkerchiefs - the tights were always bright 80s colours like cerise and electric blue... in 1998.

I have to say her presents to us were treated as family jokes, but we didn't love her any the less. In fact the fact she remembered we liked brightly coloured tights was really sweet. And our presents to her were just as useless - Mum found a stack of gifts when she helped to clear out the house!

She never gave us MSG though. Now that is a weird gift Top Trump.

Aliantha · 09-25-2008, 04:33 PM

Yes very weird. I did try to tell you all. lol

Cloud · 09-25-2008, 04:35 PM

yeah, but you said she was weird 'cause she gave you meat. I've been known to give my kids meat for Christmas, so . . .

Aliantha · 09-25-2008, 04:40 PM

I did mention a couple of other things. lol But at the time I didn't think of the msg thing. It was so long ago and there have been so many other weird gifts and occurances in between.
