I doubt it. A Slim Jim (Jimmie) is used to open car doors and is a
tool of the car knapping trade. When you use a slim jim to open it,
we say the lock has been "jimmied" open.

Slim Jims are also beef snacks, but they are given that name because
they resemble real slim jims.

Erm... a "jimmie hat" is slang for a condom amongst the 'brethren'.
Does that help?

Instant Mashed potatoes are good for two thing...settling the stomach
suffering from a hangover or thickening soups. Here's a gross drink
that was fun when a youngster but really tastes gross now. It is called
a *Cherry Hooker*. You pour a generous amount of cherry whisky (not
brandy) into a glass. The add a little ice. Very carefully with the
glass tipped, add oj. When the glass is empty toss out the exhaust fan
of whatever bar you are in. Years ago, these things tasted really good
but our tastes must have somehow got refined. Now they taste horrible!

Mustard sanwiches are awesome. Ok, I can do you one better. I used to
eat oatmeal raw from the bag to the point I would sneak downstairs at
night and raid the oatmeal bag. I really don't care for the stuff now.

I regularly eat the tinned corned beef...Have done since I was a
kid...It's ok. Mostly in sandwiches or on a cracker.

But there is a trick. You need to refridgerate the tin over night before
opening it...Due to the cans shape, if you refridgerate it, the corned
beef will slide out in one piece and be easy to slice...otherwise it is
too soft and shreds.

DH's mom used to make this dish called Frank's in Foil. It involved
wiener, chopped boiled eggs, ketchup, mustard, and a few other things
all mixed together then stuffed into hot dog buns, wrapped in foil, then
baked. A couple of months ago, I made a batch for DH. He darn near
gagged! They weren't quite as he remembered even though I followed her
recipe to a t. It was not a pretty sight I tell you!

Oh, DH loves chocolate hale on top of bread & butter. It's a Dutch
thing. Chocolate hale is the chocolate version of rainbow sprinkles.
My thing was brown sugar topping the bread & butter then sprinkled with
cinnamon. DH kept his taste for chocolate hale but I gave up on the
cinnamon toast.

Yes, but in my experience in New England, only the chocolate ones are

That remionds me of my worst cooking experiment;

Quartered cabbage, diced potatoes, carrot, onion,
and a can of Corned Beef.....

I should have ended up with "corned beef and cabbage"
But it morphed into some inedible glop.

YUK.!!...GROSS !!....

It's good to know that there's someone else out there who is as picky
as I ;-) I'll bet you have a few red pens too <g> How 'bout when
folks say "She helped he and I" or "That's between they and I"? Does
that drive you up a wall too? It REALLY frosts my cupcakes when media
folks do it. Guess it just goes to show that I don't have many real
and serious complaints in my life :-) Then again, I know I make some
real boo boos too and either don't notice 'em or figure it's ok since
it is I who make them <G>

What really drives me up the wall is people using the word "myself"
when they should use "me". I don't know how many memos I've read where
the writer states something to the tune of: "If you have any
questions, please ask Bob or myself". Like running your fingernails
down a chalkboard. I've even read a memo where the author stated
"Please ask myself if you have any questions".

Also, folks that state "I could care less", when they should use "I
couldn't care less".--Becky

canned corned beef heated thru with browned caramelized onions (fry pan) and
seasoned with black pepper is really yummy over rice..

The shape of the can is just too weird for words. I can understand the mfg
wanting it to be "sliceable" (is that a word?) but why the narrow top and
wider bottom? And those key-things on the cans... how 1940's is that?!

I forgot to mention use a can opener on both the top and the bottom. That
way you can push the corned beef out if it gets stuck, for any reason.

One slice of fresh white bread, lightly buttered. Open the tin of SCM and
slather it thickly on to the bread, do not cut just fold over, lick/suck any
SCM that starts to drip/ooze out, then bite into it.

The brand that we had (going back 40+ years now) was pretty thick out of the
can but it was considered OK to lick/suck any that oozed out of the bread, a
bit like eating a melting icecream. In hot weather when the stuff became
too fluid to get a decent amount on the bread we would chill the can in the
fridge beforehand to thicken it up.

I thought it was gross then, when my sister used to slice cucumbers into

One of those "things you do purely by coincidence" discoveries:

Had fish in the oven, whipped up a cup of cocktail sauce, it was
sitting there as I sliced up a garden cuke, planned on dipping it
into a few spoonfulls of salad dressing (my on-the-fly app/starter
course.) Just for grins 'n' giggles, tried a cuke slice in the
cocktail sauce. IT WORKS!!!

Actually, they do something similar in Taiwan, with a dessert that they
simply call "bing" (ice). The shaved ice is placed on a plate, and
then topped with your choice of topping. Some of the toppings are
fruits in syrup, but you can also get a scoop of sugared adzuki or mung
beans. The mung beans are my favorite, especially since according to
the cosmology of Chinese foods, green beans are a "cooling" food,
definitely something to consider in the hot and humid climate of
Taiwan.

But mashed potato pizza is really good! Top it with minced or powdered
garlic, chopped bacon, chives, and motz. (I hate spelling that word)
cheese. Ideally, use a homemade pizza crust but it works well on those
bobellies (sp) ready to use crusts.

Hey my kids got the real macaroni & cheese and not very often at that.
The little heathens were too busy being stuffed with good things like
salad or rabbit food as one put it. One of them came home all
fascinated with that boxed gunk thinking it was all that. He actually
ate that stuff at a friend's house for lunch. I should have taken him
to the doc's to see if there would be any lasting harm No way was I
buying it let alone serving it to my family. I tell you kids have a
major taste bud problem!

PS. I'm pretty sure there was a little lasting harm. The kid is simply
incorrigible at age 23! I attribute it to that single dose, that I know
of, boxed macaroni & cheese. Nasty stuff!

I think my kid would appreciate this. He can eat about a cup of
ketchup with one french fry. Just keeps dipping it in and sucking off
the ketchup. I just laugh at him and let him do what he wants(he isn't
old enough yet to really understand). After a while I make him eat
some "real" food, but he LOVES ketchup.

I never liked bologna or hot dogs as a kid either, and I still don't.
Luckily, my didn't like them either and we never had them in our house.

I love sugar and butter, but they need to be warm or part of
a cookie dough or something. On white bread, just too much for
me now. We used to eat Jif peanut butter with sugar too.

That's another story altogether -- hot toast with melted butter
and lots of cinnamon sugar? YUM!

I like them too -- I've had them at a couple of restaurant trade
shows; very nice. I keep forgetting to buy them, though. Sorry meat
doesn't agree with you Dee; I'm the same way about vegetables...

Heh, I still like Spaghetti-O's with meatballs. I like them for lunch
once in a while...

A small bowl of raw oatmeal and brown sugar was another treat that mom
brought out when I was home sick. It was something she'd been given by a
neighbor as a treat when she was growing up in the years when brown sugar
was a luxury. Felt a hankering for some recently while home for a family
reunion.
