You know that with most watnings there was an incident that caused them to put on the warning. Not sure what flour eating incident resulted in a possible lawsuit.

 

Or more likely bored attorneys trying to find products without warnings to make up warnings for. Like:

”Airborne pepper can make you sneeze. Please exercise caution when applying.”

So, how were the spring rolls? 😄

           Fantastic!    What kind of icing ?  White cake ?

Instead of cake, I made pie. Photo is not much to look at, but the walleye and veggies inside were fantastic.

I had bangers and mash at an Irish gastropub on our travels yesterday to celebrate St Patrick's day a day early😌.

We also tried beef bacon for our breakfast yesterday. I am not a big fan. The fat doesn't render as well nor taste as good as pork fat. As Emeril would say "pork fat rules!"

A menagerie of circumstances prevented me from having my favorite corned beef, cabbage, taters, carrots and onions at home.  Instead mom, grandson and I had some at a friend's house.  That leaves me with a corned beef brisket in th fridge to do something with.  I am contemplating putting it in the smoker for a couple hours of have hickory smoke before pitting it in the pot to finish cooking or maybe I want to.let it get up to temp in the smoker, don't know, would it need to get up to that magical 200 degrees inside lie a regular brisket??  I LOVE corned beef but have never smoked one before.  And the cabbage etc. just keeps me from eating all the meat, keeping some for the rest of the family.  Heck if left to my own devices I would put the veggies on a tray as smoke them a while too.

Irish Soda Bread. I make mine kinda sweet with dried cranberries inside and raw sugar sprinkled over the top. 

And, one of my personal favorites — Shepherd’s Pie. Done with Guinness in the gravy this time. Updating the recipe 😄

                      Friday went to Springfield messing around. Some shopping in that metropolis was done. Sam's and HiVee.  Enjoy the variety and quality we don't get in BilletHeadVille but seem to spend too much down there. Two 5lb. blocks of sharp cheddar and two 2lb blocks of Colby Jack. Some of this cheese will be sliced into smaller blocks to be smoked. Produce pretty good too. Six pack of sweet bell peppers. Part of those will be for goose fajitas tomorrow. So we walked by the frozen sea food thinking about some shrimp. Some stuff from Asia raised in no telling what kind of conditions. Passed by that and soon spied the fresh seafood counter that held amongst other things a small mountain of gulf shrimp. I asked the guy if it had been froze. Nope fresh from the gulf. That sealed the deal and two pounds came home with us. Boiled in seafood mix and chilled in ice.

          Salad, shrimp and garlic beer bread toast. A nice treat and out of the norm,   Some shrimp left for today. Now that will take us backward to a couple weeks back when again we were in Springfield to try Pho for the first time. Good stuff and I will be making the broth for the soup next year with deer bones maybe sooner with some beef bones. While awaiting our Pho we had some spring rolls. Again good and I mentioned to Pat we should try this. This brings us to the use of the leftover shrimp. We got some rice paper wrappers and decided today to tackle that. So this worked too but we got some extra large spring rolls. Stuffed to the max so don't laugh. This was todays main meal. I polished off four and Pat almost three. Made tow dipping sauces to go with, .

Those are really pretty.  Very apropos to the inspiration.
