Ahhhhh....Corned Beef

Leftover corned beef??? Never heard of the concept.
Sunday dinner = Large stock pot over medium gas. 1-1/2 gallons water, brisket(s), leeks, allow to cook for two hours then add parsnips, turnip, carrots and cook for three quarters of an hour, add potatoes, cook for another half hour, add quartered cabbage, cook for forty minutes, remove brisket(s) to cutting board to cool for ten minutes. Cut up brisket, remove pot from gas and scoop out veggies onto plates, add corned beef, serve and eat. Pour juice through strainer into clean container. Makes great soup or gravy stock.

Is that kind of an Irish Dolamades?

That might be a good name for it. Dolamades are a lot more work to make than what I do to make these, though.

Thus I appeared at the Pub in all my "Patrician" splendour. being the only lone who knew the Feast had been transferred. So I was quite a Kilted hit.

Someone muttered 'The Church should stay out of it, changing holidays' . The crowd howled, reminding him it is SAINT Patrick, a Catholic Bishop & Patron Saint of Ireland that we are commemorating.

The best part of the holiday being transferred is that it gives you TWO DAYS to drink instead of one

Grape leaves sound interesting. What leftovers we have (not much usually) almost always ends up in quesadillias.

Corned beef is an interesting food. I can't really eat that much normally, but put a corned beef brisket in front of me and I can eat the whole thing. Hmmm...I think the only three things I can eat a lot of are corned beef, pizza, and chocolate. And of the three, the one I can eat the most of is corned beef. I wonder why.

Well, I went to a place called Black Bear Diner this afternoon and had cornbeef and cabbage. I forget the exact name of how it was prepared, "rashers" maybe, but cut thin with bacon. It was very good. And I wore a kilt...

* I looked it up. It was cornbeef and cabbage prepared with rashers which is the bacon. MMMM, good stuff.

They served it with boiled cabbage and spuds in commons tonight. Best food I've had on campus in awhile!

Having eaten in college campus cafeterias before, I don't doubt it. I remember when I was in college the first time. When my car had broke down, I could always find someone who would give me a ride home- just ask someone who lived in the dorms and ate in the cafeteria and offer them a home cooked meal.
