Lotta stuff works. Try chunk pineapple with a sweet/sour mustard
dressing sweetened with pineapple juice. A real treat.

NOTE: Mix all jes before serving and do NOT store leftovers, eat up, as
the pineapple juice will severely sog out the cabbage in 3-4 hrs.

Basic milk/mayo/sugar dressing with tart mustard and some pineapple
juice. Add dressing and drained chunks jes before serving.

I served it at my first local potluck. I was a bit late and my mom
told everyone what I was bringing. When I finally arrived, gotta
lotta skeptical looks. Turns out they loved it and ate it all.

I got the recipe from the NY hotel cookbook we used in the abbreviated
cooking school I went to about 40 yrs ago. I'm still trying to find a

Would suck a whole lot more to be your parents... I'd put you in "The

thought that was funny as hell and have always wanted to use it as a

I think my son (my only) would disagree with you. There were times when
he was growing up (he's an adult now) that he would get really angry
with me over (you name it). He always knew the rules, though, and one
of those is eat what you're given for breakfast/lunch/dinner or wait
until the next meal and no snacks until then. Of course, he did get
quite a few meals that were his favorites, too. I never understood the
appeal, but he *loved* fish sticks with applesauce. He *still* loves
that. (-:

Several years ago he almost gave me a heart attack when he thanked me
for setting rules for him while he was growing up. He now eats a large
variety of food and is always willing to try something new.

So, no, I don't think my child thought it sucked to be my kid. (-:

You just reminded me of a time when I was a kid. Mom was a stay at home
mom (just like almost everyone else's mom) and had fixed a big, very
labor intensive dinner for all of us. Dad sat down, took a look at his
full plate and said, "I don't think I can eat all of this." Mom picked
up his plate and threw it into the sink. I don't mean tossed it into
the sink. She would have made any major league pitcher proud.

I don't think Dad ever complained again either!! (-:

Depends what you mean by "all of this", are you talking varietal or
quantity? My father ate everything, big difference from eating
anything. When my mother cooked dad's favorite food and we asked
what's for dinner she said "tank"... we knew what that meant, and it
was a lot, enough to fill dad's tank. Us kids were required to eat was
was served... mom was reasonable, just because dad loved jellied
mutton she didn't serve that to the rest of us, and she served
reasonable quantity, we knew not to complain.

Well, I *much* prefer my name Leslie to Lezlie. That's been one of my
pet peeves, my name is pronounced with an S not a Z. I don't mean to
sound picky, but when it comes to my name I am. (-:

What possible difference does it make in this case? Either way the
plate would have been heaved into the sink in an almost blind rage. FTR
he was complaining about the quantity. It was fried chicken, mashed
potatoes with gravy, green beans and a lettuce salad. That's one meal
I'll never forget and one my siblings and I ate in total silence.

Because I want to?

These are two different groups. ASD I read & post to for diabetes info
and this one for recipes & food info that are, in most cases, NOT
diabetes related. I've been lurking here (RFC) for months.

Who do you fraternize with, a buncha drooling idiots?

No offense, but I've known at least 3 Leslie's in my life and I've
never heard anyone pronounce their names with a Z sound. It doesn't
sound right. Lez-lee? Sounds weird. Less-lee. Not even remotely
difficult to do.

One of my ex's complained about how I fixed his eggs, so I calmly,
casually, took his plate, scraped it into the trash, sat back down and
finished my breakfast. I can still see the look on his face lol. Never
heard a complaint out of him since.

You will never hear me say, "jes". I jes type it that way as a goof.
I'd even pronounce your name as you desire. Once you tell me how
the Hell Jeßus should be pronounced, that is.

If you want the emphasis on the "s", spell it Lesslie. Otherwise. lean
to accept that people will soften the "s" to the way it is spelled.
