As promised in chat, here is my mushroom risotto recipe. Serve 4 as a main with extra veges on the side.

In a really large fry pan or saucepan, dice some onion (we use a large red one) in fry in oil with some chopped garlic. Add 2 cups of Arborrio rice (it has to be arborrio so don't try to sub it with another type) and stir it around the pan for about 2 minutes.

Add some stock - about a cup - I usually prepare about 1 litre (about 4 cups) and stir until absorbed. Stir in mushrooms - whichever type you like, brown, field and pretty much as many as you like - more is better.

Keep stiring and adding more stock slowly until absorbed, then add more. Keep doing this for about 30 minutes until the rice is cooked.

Serve with grated cheese on top if desired and extra veges on the side.

This recipe is really easy to adapt to whatever veges/meat you have on hand. Also reheats really well for lunches.

We're almost there. MIL & FIL have the kids and I think we have officially entered the DC metro area - Hargerstown, MD. We are not off to a great start. We've been compleltely across the country and this is the first time we've had a problem finding a hotel that will allow the dog. We must have called 20 different places last night. I hope this gets better because we aren't terribly impressed with the area. The term "5th circle of hell" was muttered in the car last night...

just got my confirmation...

Batten down the hatches Florida....

This goofy family will be at the Dis meet at the WLV on 8/25.



We were able to get a cheap place near Disney for 8/22 to 8/26...

Air isn't too bad....We always eat cheap..

The worst will be the dog sitter for four days.

Can't wait for my first TOAL meet

YAY! I hope you have a great time. We'll be passing through Fredneck this morning! umm...sorry I just insulted MD...this particular town just isn't our cup of tea and it seems like everyone hates dogs.

OMG....I got a TAG!!!!

Does everyone see my tag?????

I'm so excited, I got a TAG.

THANKS TF!!!!!

But why is the rum punch always gone?

Congrats!

I don't really have many WDW T-shirts - DS has a few, but he wears them until they fall apart! Of course, there is also that I can't sew worth a darn . I can sew on a button if I must and I managed to get DS's badges on his boyscout shirt (although I had bloody fingers doing it!) but that is about the extent of my abilities.

DH sewed patches onto his leader uniform and both the boys. He refused to do mine, so I paid someone to do it!

This could be done with any kind of t-shirt:

That is so cool. I always wanted to find someone to do it with my old competition sweatshirts and DH's crew t-shirts. (see above sewing post...I can't sew a button)

Hi all! Hope everyone is well. That means everyone!

Wow! Really? Me too? Gosh thanks!

As promised in chat, here is my mushroom risotto recipe. Serve 4 as a main with extra veges on the side.

I love mushroom risotto. I love seafood risotto. I love plain risotto. Heck someone could offer me Old Shoe Risotto and I would probably love it!

Good Saturday Morning,

I can't believe I have a half hour to myself.
How is everyone?

 

[radioclash2]

How are you surviving the after effects of the fire last week? Everytime I see the news I think of you & your family.

 

[radioclash2]

Remember I said I was finally going to have a Disney bedroom? Here is one pic. of it.

Way cool bedroom.

 

[Verandah Man]

We're doing just fine, no problems here at all as far as we care concerned. All the smoke and soot from the fire went to the northeast of the tank farm, we live southwest of the tank farm so we didn't have any ill effects from the fire, except for all the fire trucks racing by our house the other night, and the NBC10 helicopter flying over our house...........

What a relief. I was at the Y the other day & the 4 o'clock news was showing someone's pool with globs of black stuff on the bottom. Aparently some neighborhoods had soot all over the place.
