Disclosures by nowslimmer

“chili36 - Hey, I'm just printing this for you and stikmon. Have you forgotten so soon that you wanted a few tips? (That subject got me in trouble with your Mrs.)

The best tips I'm saving for Ocala NF-3. LOL.”

“heck nowslimmer, I might not be the master, but I managed to do good

cottonsocks is a keeper....despite her refusal to take advice about, well, cotton socks”

“I agree. cottonsocks is great.

I keep looking at maps to see if I can route myself yourway. But you're still a little too far off-trail for a guy in a hurry to get somewhere else.”

“I sure wouldn't want to get in the way of a man on a mission, NS. However, you are always welcome at the chili house.”

“I'm getting a free week at White Bear Racket & Swim Club. It appears to be a complete physical fitness facility.

Here are a couple of pictures. Scroll down to see the swimming pool. Their membership and fees are about double what I pay here in Florida. My Martial Arts classes are free here with my membership.”

“I explained that during a conversation with my cardiologist, he told me to take two of the pills. "Then you should be able to tame her." She wrote:"I did laugh at what your doctor said. You didn't really tell him I was sexy, did you? I am embarrassed all these states away. 'Tame me?' Never when it comes to you!"”

“You didn't go to school in Cloquet, did you?

My mom, she is your age, do I need to worry?

You go nowslimmer!!!”

“Chief, in a word...
Yes.”

“Oh Ohhh. I wonder if my dad knows about this?”

“Nowslimmer, this thread is beginning to be almost x rated! LOL! Hope you have fun watering your "flower."”

“katibug - Perhaps you missed the warning on the initial post. It says:

"If you are not 18 or older, you must exit this string."

If you continue to watch, cover your eyes. And the trip report, itself, will be rated XXX with pictures. (The pictures may have to be sent out by snail mail!)

LOL.”

“WOW Nowslimmer........this is a HOT thread........and YOU need to go North as quickly as possible!!!”

“She wrote:
I've emptied out a few dresser drawers for you, I want you to feel at home while you're here.
I wrote:
30 years and I feel like I'm just returning home from an overnight trip. You sure have had a wonderful impact on my life!
She wrote:
I wish you were coming home to stay.”

“YOU DA MAN!”

“I hope to one day have 1/2 the damn mojo NS has! Good on ya! Don't forget to pack your "little blue friend"!”

“woooo hoooooo.....almost departure time.....I hope you have a great time!!!!

“She wrote:
I'm trying to slow down the sex part so you don't get burned out before you get here.

p.s. What in the world are grits!”

“I hope Ice Tea is paying attention to this.”

“LOL! Re: grits. I tried "one" last Saturday at a Waffle House. LOLOL!! "One" being key. :-) "You must be from up Narth," said the waitress.”

“1) Grits at the Awful House universally suck. Please don't judge all grits based on that -- UGH!

2) I think Chili should draw up some generic non-disclosure agreements for NS et al.”

“whoooohoooohoooo now lets hope she wont find this thread.”

“30 years ago you couldn't hardly find a restaurant in Los Angeles that served grits or biscuits and gravy for breakfast. Now you can find most restaurants serve biscuits and gravy, but still no grits.

Grit + butter + salt + lots of pepper = OK”

“grit = grits (I'm sounding like lizs!)”

“I'm thinking it's kinda like the Norwegian lutefisk>> Mix it with the mashed potatoes and it's OK. (I was told to mix the grits -- or GRIT, in my case -- with the eggs)

And it sounds like grits are something from corn??!?”

“Grits are like Cream of Wheat, made of corn.”

“Same thing only different.”

“Lizs - Norwegian are rugged; they eat lutfisk all year. The Swedes just suffer with it at Christmas Time.

I turned down an invitation to see a bunch of old, old friends at a Lutfisk Dinner in Chicago, while enroute. I told them that a Lutfisk dinner is for conversation, not eating.”

“Prior to eating lutfisk, it is best to prepare by drinking plenty of Swedish Glögg.
The first glass of Glögg will get you in the Holiday Spirit immediately. About the third glass and you'll be out for the Holidays. Before the third glass is the time for a Little Lutfisk.”

“At the bottom of the recipe it says, "Drink while seated and give your car keys to a friend."”

“NS, get it straight!!! It's LUTEFISK

Trust me! I lived in Norwegianville... and still kinda do. And I dated a guy for a long time who's grandmother made lefse at the Smithsonian at some folk fest. And his mom made lutefisk each Christmas.

Ya know that lutefisk is something like cod that has something done to it with lye, right? Well, her secret was to rinse and rinse and rinse and rinse and rinse (etc.) it. So it wasn't half bad. Still there were the little bones. But it was OK mixed with mashed potatoes.

You hear about people almost dying from lutefisk where it hasn't been washed properly.”

“I only know lutfisk by rumor from Prarie Home Companion.


Hmmmm.... I meant to research Glögg sometime in the late '70s but I got sidetracked, LOL...

"the original Swedish recipe calls for aquavit"

Good God --- AQUAVIT?”

“"Grits are like Cream of Wheat, made of corn."

Spoken just like I would expect from someone from the Big Sky State.


Grits aint nothin' like #&%!$ing Cream of Wheat.

;-)”

“They're closer to Cream of Rice, I think...”

“White, gloppy stuff...

we had a guy from Florida living in our house one year in college at Montana. He found some grits at the local grocery store (to his amazement) and made us all a batch. When I dumped brown sugar on mine he almost came unglued - "Sacrilege!", he cried, "You can't do that to grits!!"”

“3 entries found for lutfisk.
lu·te·fisk ( P ) Pronunciation Key (lt-fsk) also lut·fisk (ltfsk)
n.

2 entries found for lutefisk.
lu·te·fisk ( P ) Pronunciation Key (lt-fsk) also lut·fisk (ltfsk)

Guess it depends upon how much glögg you've been drinking.”

“Aero, that is the same reaction I gave to Tango.

She almost ripped my head off.”

“I was turned off by grits at a young age. They used to serve them in our elementary school cafeteria, at lunch. They'd plop those things into a section of a tray, usually the one that had the name of the tray's manufacturer molded into it.

By the time you got to the table to eat, you could take a fork, flip the now-solid mass of grits upside down, and there, embossed into them, would be the text from tray.”

“Grits should have the consistency of good gravy.

Not too runny, certainly not too thick.”

“I'll have to try some on our Florida trip coming up this weekend. Oh, BTW, chili, we have to make a connection in Memphis on the way down. Do they have any in the airport? Any grits kiosks?”

“Tilt - There are different grades of aquavit. The cheap stuff is like gin and will rot your guts. The expensive aquavit is avery smooth. In Sweden we used to have a shot or two of aquavit with each cup of coffee.

The guide book explained: After everyone has their shotglass filled, someone makes a toast. But it is considered rude to toast to the host. Then, smile and nod to everyone, before drinking the aquavit. Because afterwards, you may not be able to do it.”

“Grits are great, IF they are prepared properly and most restaurants don't. There used to be a place in Memphis, chili you may have to help me out, but it was called something like the Blue Plate Cafe or something like that and THEY made really good grits. I like mine with maple syrup and butter.”

“Creamy grits with a couple poached eggs and lots of salt and pepper mMMM!”

“Has the nowslimmer-in-pursuit left on his trip already? This was the first time I read this thread. How great is this, huh? Hope it all works out!”

“Slimmer - It sez not to use metal pots, but I was wondering if Titainum might be used. That wasn't listed as not touse. This is a great combo.

MMer's watchout! Q's making some holiday cheer fer Chirstmas!!!!”
