I certainly understand the words regardless of which version of English
is written, but then again, I read a lot.

Well, I guess your true colors are showing. You seemed OK until someone
made you angry, and then out came the misogyny and name-calling. Is it
really relevant how OLD someone is? There's no call for that no matter
how annoyed you are.

I'd be willing to let it drop, but, she can't seem to. This can get as bad
as she wants it to get.

Try me.
About not neutering. Good luck with the argument. for not doing it.

Potato Leek Soup

Starts out like this:

http://i58.tinypic.com/103v6l0.jpg

Four white thin skinned medium sized potatoes and three young leeks. Diced.

Add the chicken stock. Add salt & pepper to taste:

http://i60.tinypic.com/2e22cki.jpg

Simmer until tender, pureed in a blender or food processor (or with a
stick blender). Add the puree back to the pan and gradually stir in
about 1 pint of cream. Heat through. Taste and adjust salt & pepper.
Sprinkle with parsley.

This soup is quick, easy delicious and adaptable. When serving, you
might sprinkle some shredded or crumbled cheese (of choice) on top.
Might even pass it under a broiler to melt and brown the cheese.

It has a potato base so in the US that might lend itself to some
crumbled crispy (streaky) bacon stirred into it

Thank the superior literacy of British TV programs, which find their way
to American Public Television as alternatives to the crap they produce
here.

I don't receive the BBC channel. Most of what I see is on Public
Broadcasting, very funny *old* British TV such as "Are You Being
Served": http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068040/

Still funny.

Yeah, it was American PBS to which I was referring - especially
"Masterpiece Theatre". (I didn't much care for "Mr. Selfridge", but I'm
looking forward to the next season of "Downton Abbey")

IIRC Selfridge is based on an actual department store and a real person.
Of course it's television so how "realistic" I have no idea. Downton
Abbey was fun. Reminds me a bit of Upstairs, Downstairs which was an
older series.

Granted, but IMO the British do it better!

Both typical of the times they represented. Never watched Mr Selfridge.
I prefer documentaries (especially wildlife programmes) but not the African
"lion gets a baby gazelle" ones. Boyfie and myself have enjoyed
"Springwatch" which ended today. He seems to be able to see birds on the
television.
He takes no notice of anything else on Springwatch, like deer, or stoats,
otters or badgers but he does look at the birdies ;-)

Nice recipe, but you won't stop me from a good argument. The simple thing
is that Hobo should meet the vet tomorrow. It would be best for him and the
local community.I could argue the same about Boyfie's coat pattern, it's
lovely but I got him neutered because i don't want him wandering about
fighting about girls.
He does fight a bit about territory though. Usually the sing song does the
trick. If not he offers a fight, and if they say yes, he is up for it. If
they say no, he s quite relieved.
