First, what the heck is with those jokers at Salvati? I mean, the spices speak for themselves, but the dcm shaker
has got to go!!! Do these punks just like to mock their customers or are they completely inept? Come on! The holes in the shaker are big enough, but the darn thing just still doesn’t work. We will leave the scientific
explanation to someone else in some other forum, but what we have to say comes from what we’ve seen and done, pure and simple, folks. So, Mr. Salvati, are you just going to sit there in your big leather chair in your Mahogany den in your four story mansion and let discotejas/discotexas call bullshit on not only you, sir, but the entirety of the spice industry, or are you going to stand up and churn out a product you can be proud of? Where’s the culpability? Grrrrrr!!!
Lasagna Thursdays
Posted in Food with tags creativity, disco, dishwashing, family, Food, Igor, lasagna, love, pets, plants, tejas, texas, thursday, yummy on June 17, 2008 by discotejasdiscotexasLasagna Thursdays was invented on a Thursday almost four weeks ago. No doubt you have heard about this weekly event if you have read older posts. It was simply one of those days you crave lasagna, and don’t know how to make it. So we improvised.
They wouldn’t fit in the small pot we had. The only pot we had. So we had to wait for the bottom half to get soft so the rest of it could go in. And we had to repeat this process about four times to get all the lasagna cooked. We bought an enormous pot the week after.
Putting the layers down; at this point we had nearly run out of sauce. This issue was taken care of the next week.
Random self-entertainment while waiting around for the lasagna to finish.
This is Igor, discotejas’ pet plant. He is in a much larger pot now as he has grown.
The final product; not bad for a bunch of non-Italians in an Italian neighborhood who had never done this before.
Play time after food.
Texas Pie
Posted in Food with tags lasagna, pie, shapes, terrible eagle, texas, thursday, yummy on June 13, 2008 by discotejasdiscotexas
This was the Texas-themed pie we made to go with discotejas. Texas is a hard shape to get right, but if you can vaguely get it right, everyone will know what it is. Read the about me if you haven’t already to get a feel of discotejas. It’s Lasagna Thursday today, we are finishing up our third week of lasagna, it gets better every week. Terrible Eagle will top off the night.
