And you got Ass Soup out of those ingredients?

I'm impressed! :-)

:rofl: I think it's the ham.  My recipe says to cook it for and hour and a half.  It's only been ten minutes.

It ain't done until it turn the color of baby shit green. Then add just a smidgen of corn starch for consistency and you should be good to go.  :evillaugh:

It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.

School is cancelled for all the surrounding counties, but not this one tomorrow.   :mental:  It's supposed to be around zero in the morning.   :censored: winter.

When I was in MN, I used to run the trash out in winter wearing only a robe. No slippers or anything. Never bothered me much....... So, y'all can quit whining about the cold.......

0 this morning.  They revised tomorrow's forecast.  Instead of -5 Friday morning, they're callling for -12, which means my house will be at least -15.  Add the wind, and -35 wind chill is not out of the question.

And when it's that cold, kids, I don't care HOW good your humidifier works.  Right now the humidity in the house is in the single digits.

I was going to gripe, but after reading this, will be quiet. Algore is an idiot.

You must be SR's eeeevil twin. He does that too. It drives me crazy; I'm shivering and moaning about the cold and he moves from Florida and makes footprints (with his bare feet) in the snow when he runs out to get the paper. Good thing I have a short driveway--and that so far the snow hasn't been deep at all, almost non-existent.  :-)

Chill is to be -5 to -15 by morning.

All the schools around our county are closed except for ours......but "absences will be excused".
I'm thinking the only kids that will be in school tomorrow will be the kids whose parents work and they can't get babysitters.
I know if I was a kid in school and my mom would let me stay home, there's no way I'd be sticking my nose out from under the covers. :uhsure:

Ditto... :p  I know I wouldn't... I'd stay in bed and watch movies/tv all day.

My soup was a little salty from the country ham.  Not enough to make it inedible, but it did add some flavor.  I don't normally add salt to my food; it was a nice change.

I forgot the ground beef for my chili.  I'll have to go back to the store tomorrow.
