It can be used on any kind of meat and it sounds delish. I haven't made it but can't wait to.

I personally don't like lamb chops but it caught my attention saying you can marinate any kind of meat so I bet it would be great on pork or even chicken....If you go to www. WHDH.com (go to lifestyles and it is the first recipe)I believe they will show you what to do and what it looks like. It was on this AM's news. The combination caught my attention.
Elston the only time I make lamb is Easter and that is a leg of lamb. You either like it or hate it with no in between.

MWBW-great idea. With what's left of the cabbage I just chunk and add to the pot.

NMS-close call-you could've been airborn.
Good thing I didn't have my broom with me or I would have been!

Glad you are safe and sound and all your hard work in the yard survives.

VP so good to see you my friend.

Anyhoo, the musical is done until next year! The kids did great but I am exhausted and looking forward to just relaxing today. I made dinner early yesterday but couldn't eat it until I got home at 10.

I made in the crockpot chicken taco meat. Take chicken breasts, taco seasoning, small can of diced chiles, small can of jalapenos, some diced onion, two cloves of garlic finely chopped, juice of a lime, 3/4 cup of tequila, half a beer, dash of hot sauce, a bit of salsa, and whatever else you want -- black beans might be good. Cook on high for a few hours and periodically mash the chicken. It will break down and start to shred. Most of the liquid will absorb and then serve with all of your favorite "accessories" So good! Will have some more for lunch. But first, breakfast. Coffee and cinnamon rolls.
Congrats on the musical. I know what it's like to have to go thru all that stuff. Your chicken sounds wonderful.

DH came home early, and dinner has been decided. Vegetarian pizza on Boboli crust. Yes, Nomad.....jalapenos have been invited to the party!

I'm trying Giada's chicken cacciatore tonight. I usually use red wine but her recipe calls for white. I'll give it a try and let you all know.
I'll try to send some warm weather and sunshine your way too

Oh, how I know the feeling; we love lamb, too, and it is just way out of the budget for the most part. And the worst part is that all too often, when you do find "lamb" at a decent price, it's really the lamb's great-grandmother, and so strong in flavor that it's nearly inedible.

We did break down yesterday and buy a small boneless leg of lamb from a high-quality butcher shop here in town, because our weekly dinner guests asked us last week what Middle-eastern cooking is like. We're planning marinated lamb-kebabs, hummus, cous-cous, tabouli, cucumber-yogurt salad and pita bread for them this coming Tuesday, and there'll be enough of all of it to send them home with a couple of meals' worth afterward. But that's enough of a splurge that we probably won't do lamb again for six months or more.

I keep reading Vichel's posts about the wonderful lamb she gets in Oz and wishing that it were more common here. Vichel, the next time you have a lovely tender delicately flavored leg o' lamb, think about us up here drooling at the thought of it!

I think you will love it. I have made this recipe 3 times already. In fact, when serving it as a leftover, it's even better! Enjoy!

It's slower alright. I have to really translate my thinking from English to Chinese before I speak in Chinese.

My niece is half Japanese and she is taking Japanese in college. A lot of her Japanese is coming back to her she said.

It's still snowing
