I did the same thing a couple of days ago. The local paper ran some
rec from a new casserole cookbook and - Shepard's Pie! I hadn't
thought of that in years.

Of course, that is about as much as I took from the newspaper
recipie. (like I'm going out in the snow to try to find ground
lamb). Did have to go get a bag of frozen peas (I think the peas and
the mash are what define the dish), but then did some fridge
cleaning.

What a great use of leftovers. Mine was more like a gardener's pie,
more veg than meat, but it was a cold night and this was a forgotten
comfort food.

That said, what is " crumbled garlic sourdough pretzely type things".
Sounds interesting.

And, hey. Don't hate me because I get here through google . I'm sure
I could give you plenty of better reasons.

Yeah, I chopped up some leftover baked ham and chucked it in as well. Was
going to give it to the pooch (the ham) but thought better of it :-)

Just went to have a look at the packets. I had a couple leftover from a
'gathering' a little while back, and without really looking at the pack,
ripped one open and had a taste. They went really well with some
'sundowners'.

But the funny thing is........ they're made in the USA!!!

I just saw "Hanover" and thought some of our German friends had brought
some 'home' product along!!

The above pack is almost gone, and I have this one left.......

http://www.snydersofhanover.com/en/p...hp?cat=2&id=26

"Hot Buffalo Wing"!!

I'll have to look more closely at what people bring to our gatherings from
now on :-)

You *could* mung your 'Gmail' address........ but then, you're going
through the Google website, aren't you?

There are plenty of good free newsreaders out there and plenty of free
newsservers.

It'll take you about 15mins to get set up and rolling :-)

Unless of course, you're accessing Google Groups at your local library!!

one...........

Nice and spicy!!

They'd go nicely with some cold beer.

I'll have to Google Earth it :-)

But I do know York and Gettysburg from Civil War history classes.

They seem to be quite popular in this neck of the woods..... the
supermarket I went into had shelving 4' wide, 5' high .... all stacked up
with different flavours and sizes. Quite unusual for an o/s brand.
