If I could find one with good reviews, I would.

Alphabet soup. That's what your post looks like.

A homemade freezer dinner, prepared and portioned out in serving sizes
several weeks ago: chicken stew. Spooned over a couple of crumbled
biscuits. Quite tasty; I was hungry and it hit the spot. :)
 
I made and portioned out this stew for the freezer when the temps
outside were around 70F. Tonight it might get down to freezing. It
doesn't matter. This is a nice hot meal regardless of outside
temperatures. :)

I made a pork and veggie stir fry with ginger sauce and brown rice. I won't
be eating that. Picked up a package of store brand scalloped potatoes with
three cheese and onion. I'll have that with perhaps some bacon and raw
celery.

I am wary of ginger and garlic from China. I tend not to cook them much,
not enough to kill whatever Chinese cooties are in their products.

I chop garlic with the same huge knife I use for celery: cut the
cloves in half with a smaller knife, put them cut-side down on the
board so they don't roll, slice them as thin as I can chop-chop-chop,
sweep the pile together with the knife, rotate the board ninety
degrees, chop until the pile is disordered, repeat until fine enough.
 
Most of the time I just throw the peeled cloves in whole, then when
serving, pick them out and spread them on a cracker.
 
Bulbils I squash and pick the skins out. Being squashed, they don't
need to be minced.
 
I don't cook many bulbils now that I've found out how good the green
spathes are. Way back when I had a bush that produced teeny-tiny
peppers, I made a sauce by filling a bottle with bulbils, peppers, and
twelve-percent vinegar.

So it's not just the US. It's the US and a few fly shits in the
Pacific. That changes everything!

It was nasty cold here. It was -9 C. That isn't usually really bad but
there was something evil in the air. I had to fill my tires and it was
bitter cold with my gloves off. I had a heck of a time getting the valve
caps off because my fingers were so stiff and cold.

You could also try anti-depressants.

It's curious that it's okay to take cheap shots at everyone, but how
dare we point out that someone is a pathological liar.

Not so quick. If its yellow, let it mellow, if its brown, flush it down.

Ask a professional. You'll be surprised.

Ask him what? You need to pass that helpful hint along Kuthe; not that he
would take their recommendation. Maybe you're the one that needs to be on
a regimen of anti-depressants. Now, there's a thought.

I was on a neighborhood group last night and saw several churches in town
inviting everyone to pancake night tonight. Then it dawned me it is Shrove
Tuesday but I did not partake even though I love pancakes.

I love Manhattans. They are the nectar of the gods. The problem is that
one tastes like another, and with two shots of whiskey and one of
vermouth, that is way too much booze to drink in a day. Since I could
not resist the second one I had to stop drinking them entirely. I have a
nice beer or a glass of wine instead.

I went on a tour of the Jack Daniels distillery 5 or 6 years ago and it was
interesting as well as entertaining. But good grief, it was hot as hell the
we went. Thankfully, as much lemonade as you could consume was offered after
the tour. Pretty sure I downed at least a gallon.

I would not start my crockpot and select a time that it would shut off in
the middle of the night. When I've used it in the past I would start it
early in the morning so what I would plan to eat that day would be ready
by either early afternoon or suppertime.

Mine is programmable up to 20 hours, and automatically switches to "warm"
after the set time is up.

Mine is programmable for 10 hours then will switch to warm, too.

It is one of my favourite cuts of meat. Roasted lamb is quite common as
an Easter meal but I don't think that racks are. A rack barely feeds
two, and they would be pretty expensive for a crowd. We usually reserve
them for a special dinner for the two of us.
 
 
 
> Anything in particular side dish suggested to go with it?
 
I always like asparagus with lamb, but carrots, peas or beans would be
good. Saute mixed vegetables would be great. Roasted potatoes or
garlic mashed.
