I think we can all come together in our disdain for the Cornish.

I LOVE this video! OMG it's so catchy. I will never get this song out of my head now today. ARGH! OK. Deep breath. I'm having a bad day. Panic attacks all day. Now popcorn. WHEE! Alright. OK. As usual, kamap to the rescue! Ms Kamap is in SO much trouble! 
What do you mean I'm in trouble???? Kamap's in trouble when he's not home on time (he needs to go squash with a friend) and I'm not making excuses.... Perhaps I should just leave the dishes, he can do them afterwards and I can enjoy a good soak in the hottub. My shoulder is really hurting right now, a massage would not go amiss (and my hubby is so good at them). Shame he needs to leave and can't give me one.
Because your husband is a really fun guy, who cheers me up a lot, but DON'T TELL HIM or I'll never live it down!
So you want to whisk me away to a subtropical island to entertain you all day while you sip cocktails?
There must be a pun in there somewhere.
No need to tell me that I'm a fun guy, my wifes tells me on a regular basis.

My wife(s) approved of said post, so they knew what I was revealing, even before I posted it.
(Might have just been a typo but lets run with it and see how they react)

You have more than one wife? You MUST be crazy! I'd think even one would be a challenge! I know I'm not up to the challenge of being a wife at the moment.....
There, there, I'll lend you a shoulder to cry on.
Anyone got a clue where Noodle keeps his stash of shoulders?:crazyeyes:
I'm Irish - born there, lived there til I was 17, still have an Irish passport. Learned Irish in school though I've forgotten it all. Not Irish-American - Irish. Also American. On alternate Thursdays. When I remember.
Ah. If it's not too much nosyness, wheresabout in Ireland did you live?
I have a connection to Northern Ireland due to my best friend living there, we rarely visit south I have to say, though last year we stayed in Clare for a wee bit, visiting Aillwee Caves.
Being in the North, you don't learn Irish so my friend doesn't speak it.
Neither do I.
I also wonder what's the point. I remember my sister (when we were young) once putting on Clannad, and then mother complaining that she didn't understand what they were singing as they were singing in Garlic. (...)
Cakes...it IS a country. Belgium is bigger than the country I'm from, some miles up north, The Netherlands. Now that is tiny. And flat. And full! There's bloody 16 million people crammed in there.
They're all independent countries with their own governments - failing ones, like mine, or taking their time becoming a government at all, like Belgium. (Not having a go at you or your country Kamap, just that after the last elections I vaguely remember it took a long time).
Yeah we won the trophy of not having a governement for the longest since they started democracy and such? Which was 541 days if I'm not mistaken. The truth can be said Vivi, I wont see that as having a go at me most of the time (it depends on who).

Do you have an Irish accent? /drool
It's okay. I was late on my own birthday too. ^_^ Thank you! *hugs Lucky*
All this sexy European talk and I'm so confused as to what country is what. Let's start from the beginning.
Je suis americaine. Qu'est-ce que tu es? roughly... >.> Ahem...
So... Belenux= the area of Belgium, Luxembourg, and Netherlands? Vivi is from the Netherlands so does that mean she is Dutch? Dutch people hail from Netherlands? Belgians from Belgium and what are people from Luxembourg called? I know Korial is Norwegian. and even though I haven't heard him in a loooong time, he has the most adorable voice/accent ever!! :cloud9:
I know there is some unpleasant history between the Irish and Britains. Can anyone enlighten me please? or maybe I should just look it up. that might be better. >.>
Omg! there is this Australian girl in my French class. Not only does she have a beautiful voice, she has the most perfect French accent out of the entire class. Je suis jealous. XD
and I don't care what anyone says (ahemZOKARahem) but Steel Magnolias is the best chick flick of all time. OF ALL TIME!
A nice cool day, sitting around watching basketball and eating potato pancakes. I feel like a Jewish grandmother.
Noodle's Potato Pancakes (Latkes)
Two russet potatoes
1/2 yellow onion
Two eggs
Flour
Oil
Super easy - peel the potatoes, and grate using the coarse holes on a grater. Line a large bowl with a clean dish towel, and place the potatoes on top. Grate the half onion, and add to the potatoes. Gather up the ends of the dish towel, and squeeze like your life depends on it. You will be amazed at the amount of liquid that comes out. This is an important step to guarantee crispy pancakes.
Mix in the eggs, and two tablespoons flour, and season with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium - high heat. (Like a six or seven on a scale of one to ten.) Once oil is hot, place a large spoonful in the pan, smooshing it down to flatten it. Add as many more as you can fit without overcrowding the pann. Cook for about four minutes a side, until nice and crispy. Remove to a paper towel lined plate, and place in a low over to keep warm while you make the rest.
These are easily scaleable - for each standard sized potato, you use 1/4 of an onion, one egg, and one tablespoon of flour.
I like mine with sour cream and chives, but the ol' lady has a sweet tooth so I made her some applesauce - just seed, peel, and dice a couple Granny Smiths, and cook in butter over a low heat with cinnamon, brown sugar, a splash of vanilla, and a little water. When the apples soften, you can mash 'em up some - I like to leave a little texture.
