We've got lots of snow here. Blowing and drifting. Not a fit day for
man nor beast.

I'm making pot roast with onions, carrots, and potatoes for dinner.

Tomorrow, I'm making some beef broth with the bones from last
Christmas' standing rib roast. I'm considering hacking them in half
with my trusty cleaver. I've heard that you can get more flavor that
way.

Then I'll add carrots and potatoes. When they're tender crisp, I'll
add cubed, leftover beef. Then thicken the whole mess and make
dumplings for the top. Crash will be in hog heaven.

I wonder if I should bake some bread?

What do you guys cook when you're cozied (spell checker says that's
not a word - well it is now) into your home with nowhere to go?

Oddly enough, the same foods I want when I'm sick! lol
Chicken soup, beef stew, pot pie, ribs & chicken with dressing....comfort
food.
It's been a long while since I've been snowed in, that's for certain...but
there's days when it is dingy and gray and drizzly and cold when it almost
feels like being snowed in: I sure want to stay in my cozy warm house and
snuggle! We're big on having cocoa in front of a fire in the fireplace in
our house too...with a slice of pie or maybe a cookie or two.

I don't know if you have Ikea in the States, but it's a Swedish furniture
and household store and it has a restaurant. Whenever we drive the
distance (1 1/2 hrs each way) we have the swedish meatballs with gravy and
potatoes.

My daughter is a fiend for those Swedish meatballs from Ikea! Her best
friend is Swedish, and her mom goes there weekly for lingonberries. One day
they invited my girl along and had lunch. She's been hooked ever since!

So, I'm trying to make meals with half a kitchen and I got this neat idea.
I grabbed a couple of au jus gravy packets and mixed them up in my
crockpot base (which hubby knocked off one handle while building), put it
on the stove and cooked the gravy. Threw in a bunch of my small frozen
meatballs and put it in the heating part and put it on high. I put on
potatoes and green beans and by the time they were done so were the
meatballs. Oh and I added some nutmeg to the gravy.

Then I served the potatoes mashed with the green beans and the meatballs
beside with the gravy over the potatoes.

Yum!

What else have you tried from that book? I don't think I have ever
fixed anything from that book that wasn't a total winner....

Well, her recipe for garlic oil seems to court botulism; I must have lucked
out by using it and NOT dying as a result.

I haven't ever had a recipe from THAT book bomb, but the follow-on book
_Morning Foods_ has a bread recipe which I've never gotten to work.

Oh, we do indeed have Ikea in the States. My girlfriend is an Ikea addict.
Currently, I have to drive 100 miles to the nearest Ikea, so I've been able
to forestall regular Ikea expeditions, but there's an Ikea under
construction in Sacramento. When that finishes, I'll probably be there every
week.

Ikea's pretty far-flung: When I lived in Kuwait, our apartment furniture and
other appointments were mostly from Ikea.

There is one about 50 miles from me, on the way back from "the city" but far
enough that I don't make unnecessary trips to it. I am proud to say that they
last time I went through there I only spent $21. It usually costs me closer to
$150 to walk through that store. They have some great stuff in there. I
especially like their candles. One of the things I picked up on that last trip
was a flexible cutting coat. It is a sheet of plastic sturdy enough to cut on
and flexible enough to fold over and pour things off. At $1.99 it seemed too
cheap not to buy one. When we got home and unpacked things we discovered that
the package had two them inside.

We also have IKEA . I went just yesterday there and I've bought a powder to
make the seasoning (a cream) for meatballs. It is very very good! They eat
these meatballs also with a few sugared lingonberry jam. Very good.

A half cup of beer, huh? I guess I'll be forced to make a triple
recipe of this. What a tragedy! LOL! I love beer soup with popcorn
floating on top.

Thanks!

Hey Carol, we had our pot roast last night, and I baked some (ahem) bread to
go with it. It was one of those Pillsbury pop-n-fresh French loaves. It
wasn't fantastic, but it was warm, and it was bread, and it served its
purpose well: it was quick and easy, it sopped up the pot roast juices
well, and the kids were thrilled with it.

Still waiting to hear what you end up doing with dem bones!

I got mine at Dollarama...two for a buck...Canadian. I've used them
for about 4 months and they are still fine. I cut one in half for small
jobs since my counter is very small. ...Sharon

I remember when the first few Ikea's in the US opened, one was in Pittsburgh. My
reaction was this will never fly in this town. Boy was I ever wrong. The place
thrives. More than I ever expected from the Pittsburgh crowd.

Now as transplant way south my only hope is they build the one in the SE Florida
area and that it catches on enough they come to the Gulf Coast.

The Sarasota area in my opinion would be perfect, lots of x-Europeans and plenty
of people with disposable income, plus those looking for good furniture at a
decent price.

I have a kitchen set thats one of those folding tables and 4 chairs I purchased
from them 10 years ago and 3 moves later its still going. Admittedly it gets
little actual use as I use mostly the bar/counter or the tv tables since 99% of
the time its just one person. Thats why I love that table it folds up and can be
put out of the way. Unfortunately that still leaves me 4 chairs to deal with,
but nothings perfect.

A trip to Ikea is worth it just to browse and get those fantastic HUGE cinnamon
rolls. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!

They're in the process of building an Ikea in the metro Detroit area. I
think it's slated to open some time in mid-2006.

Pandora, I buy the small jars of the lingonberry jam (Felix brand, I think).
Last time I went (in New Haven, CT) I bought the big bucket of lingonberry
jam and found it isn't as sweet as the Felix brand, and still very good. I
just heaved the last of it this week, it lasted a little too long for two of
us, and took up too much space in the refrigerator.

When we eat there, DH eats the meatball plate, and I eat the salmon plate.
The restaurant in New Haven is quite nice, but the one in Woodbridge, VA is
pretty cramped and not too interesting.
