CHOICES?

Well I have about 14 items I would like to write about today but I will keep it down to only one as that will be long enough for someone to read. My topic today will be CHEESEBERGER PIE. I promised a while ago that I would post this receipe so here goes. This dish really tastes like pizza and kids love it so don't be afraid to make it for them. Do not use regular hamberg as the fat content is high, use either lean or extra lean whichever is on sale.

CHEESEBERGER PIE:
1 pie crust.
1 lb hamberg.
1 tsp salt.
1/2 tsp oregano.
1/2 tsp dry bread crumbs.
1/4 tsp pepper.
1 8oz can tomato sauce.
1/4 cup chopped onions.
1/4 cup chopped green peppers.

Preheat oven to 425 Degrees

Prepare pie crust.

In skillet cook hamberg till brown, drain off fat.
stir in all other ingredients and mix.
put ingredents into the pie shell.
spread cheese topping over the top. (receipe below).

CHEESE TOPPING.
1 Egg.
1/2tsp salt.
1/2 tsp dry mustard.
1/4 cup milk.
2 cups gratted cheddar cheese.
Beat all together before poring over pie.

Bake for 30 minutes.

It also freezes well and heats up really good in the microwave oven so if you make 2 and freeze one you will have the making of a quick and easy meal sometime down the road.

Well there it is in all its glory, the next receipe I will post is for the best damn apple pie you will ever eat. At least that's what people tell me who have ate it. I make it for special ocasions but being a diabetic I have never tried it.
Thats about it for today.

Todays UFI is:

(1) Seven per cent of Americans still believe that Elvis Presley is alive.

(2) Buckingham Palace has over 600 rooms.

(3) Male monkeys lose the hair on their heads in the same manner men do.

Till next time, take care.

ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL DAY IN GOD'S COUNTRY.

Well what a beautifukl day we are enjoying here on P.E.I. The sun is shining in all its glory, the wind is near non existent, and it is just a great day to be alive. Talk about God's country I believe if he does not live on PEI and you wanted to phone him than it would not be a long distance call. If this is not his home it is for certain his neighborhood. Nothing like a beautiful day to get you ready to accept winter because the sooner it starts the sooner it is over, not that winters are that bad as I enjoy each season all for different reasons. Stop and think for a while on how boring it must be to never see the seasons change over the year. No renewell and rebirth of all living things in the spring. The hot lazy days of summer with their trips to the beach and backyard BBQ's, and family picnics. The harvest of the farmers crops in the autumn, the animals storing food for the long winter approaching, and the beautiful display of multi colored leaves. Now winter which hard to believe is probally our most active season on PEI. You have community schools, card parties, hockey games, skiing and too many more activities to even list. Guess you could just call us lucky to be born in such a beautiful place and super residents.
For those of you who are worried about the winter that is due to arrive on Dec 21 remember that is also the shortest day of sunlight and the days are getting longer starting the very next day. I always figure that it always get better after we get that day over with.
Sorry for all the rambling today but it is just the way I feel and no matter what is happening now you can be sure that it will change, me I always figure that the change is always for the better. If not than it is never as bad as it could be and another change is just ahead.
The entries for my contest are rolling in so if you have not sent in your answer yet move your butt and do it now.
Todays UFI is:
(1) Eating raw onions is a good way to unplug a pluged nose.
(2) There are more caribou in Alaska than people.
(3) Elvis Presleys favorite food was a fried peanut butter and banana sandwich.
Till next time, Take Care.

IT'S TIME FOLKS.

Well folks it's time for my second contest and as previously advertised this one will have 3 questions. I think that someone will get this one right as the questions are not that hard. The contest closes on Nov. 25 which by the way is Thanksgiving for our good neighbors to the south. If there is a tie I will draw one name who will be declared the winner. My decisions are final. Now on to the questions.

(1) What sports craze did Roger Neilson start?

(2) In what city did the event occur? Extra points if you can name the team he was associated with at the time.

(3) Why did he do the thing that started this new craze?

Good luck all remember to send your answer to me at: lewpei@yahoo.ca.

Well that just about wraps it up for today, have a good one.
My UFI for today is:

Ralph Loren's birth name was Ralph Lifshitz.

Godzilla has made the covers of both Time and Newsweek.

Abby Road was the last album recorded by the Beetles.

Till next time, take care.

ME POLITICALLY CORRECT?

What a question as I don't even know how to spell it let alone act that way but I believe it is a crock of heffer dust. If I am out for a drive and see a beautiful house, nicely landscaped, with a little picket fence around it I will take a long look at it. If I happen to see a beautiful sunset or a lovely sea scene I will take a long look. I guess you might have figured out by now that I like and appreciate beauty where I find it, now the kicker. I am at the mall, walking down street, or out for a drive and I see a beautiful lady and I do whatever I normally do when I see something beautiful and look and enjoy the beauty I am considered either a dirty old man or not potilically correct, sorry ladies but a thing of beauty really is a joy forever and that includes all ladies. In my world all ladies are beautiful just some more so than others. If you know me and meet me somewhere and I seem to be staring at you please don't think unkindly of me as I am just enjoying the beauty of the moment nothing bad intended. I could go on for pages trying to explain what I mean but hopefully you will understand what I am trying to say.
Just to prove that sometimes I have thoughts that are not in the mainstream I came up with a wonderful idea for a new holiday to be held on the 29 of Februrary. Here is my suggestion and why we need it.
I think that Feb 29 should be called MOTHER-IN-LAW day and on this day we sacrifice all our mother-in-laws on flaming crosses. The reasons for this are (1) for better crops for the farmers in the years ahead. (2) For a long and happy life for the in-laws involved. (3) We need a holiday between New Years day and Good Friday as sometimes it can be over 3 month between breaks.
From discussing it with friends they tell me that it should be successful in 2 of 3 reasons and you never know it also might help the crops.
So much for today, tomorrow I will be holding my second quiz on sports with 3 questions and I will be suprised if I don't get all 3 answered correctly.
Now to todays UFI.
(1)Charlie Chaplin once entered a Charlie Chaplin look alike contest in which no one knew his real identy. He came third.
(2)John Waynes real birt name was Marion Morrison.
(3)It takes 63,000 trees to make the newsprint for the average Sunday Edition of THE NEW YORK TIMES.
Till next time, take care.

U.F.I.

For people who don't know I will explain what U.F.I. means and what it has to do with me.
U.F.I. means Useless Fu@#&*# Infornation and a few years ago I was a walking storehouse of UFI, I used to read a lot and it seemed the more useless the info was more I could remember it. Boy was I ever good at Trivia Persuit especially the stupid questions, now I don't have the memory I did but I am still a store house of this knowledge. What I asm going to do with this very important talent is to add some UFI to each of my postings, I hope you find some of it interesting. Below are a few samples to get me started.
Arnold Schwarzenegger bought the first Hummer sold for civilian use. He also bought President John F. Kennedy's golf clubs at a 1996 auction for $772,500.00.
The nest of the bald eagle can weigh well over a ton.
American Airlines saved $40,000.00 in 1987 by eliminating one olive from each salad served in first class.
Thats all for today folks, I hope to have my next super quiz on Wed Nov 17, 2004. This one will be sports related and everyone should know the answers to all 3 questions.
Till next time, take care.
