Red Cat Jenny Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 ^Thinks peeps..sugar rush...ahhh that explains some of it lol aww Had an awful lot of fun here at the pub with everyone today. Few phone calls, many PM's from Cheeky and others and thinks Sterling's giddy personality is highly infectious. Sterling, yes. Ikea has cloudberries. Just have to make sure they're fresh. Lingonberies? Thought growing up that everyone lived on these. and headcheese (ok everyone laugh...it's good stuff!) Grew up on Scorpor and Wasa and those biscuits with Cardamom. Have an unusual craving for cardamom. No IKEA? Try www.nordicdeli.com OOh your Granda made the pancakes too? Yum! Cinamon buns! Have any of the Tomten or Horses? Wow Sterling, Red Cat, Sjöröveren... yesh! Viking blood... Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.... Her reputation was her livelihood. I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice!

jessie k. Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Have you ever roasted peeps over a bonfire? It's kinda sadistic watching them melt and ooze, but they taste oh so good!

PirateSSe Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 A thought....or a query.. I wonder why it is here that when you start a thread or post something, some people feel it's their duty to spew venom all over your thoughts, good fortune, or just a word. I can't help but wonder what drives some pub members to be outright nasty towards one another. I'll take the time to post something and it's completely ignored. I'll start a thread, and someone will feel driven to s**t all over that thread not once, but many times. I know it only makes THEM look childish, but I just require a bit of assistance in understanding the motivation behind this.... I joined this forum thinking it was a merry place of comeraderie, but I've been proven wrong countless times. Just wondering if anyone else has encountered this, or has an explanation.

michaelsbagley Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 http://swedensbest.com/cloudberries.htmlDid you know you could get cloudberry jam over here... I grew up on the lingonberries...my Gram's favorite... and Swedish pancakes, still have her griddle and the Dalahäst, have the Rooster too. I once made a cloudberry malemel (fruit flavoured mead).... It turned out amazing.. I may still even have a bottle or two around... Unfortunately, it cost way too much for the ingredients (frozen imported berries are expensive), so it is a recipe I will be very unlikely to duplicate... And PirateSSe, I know it's hard, but there will always be angry people in the world, the only solution is to try and not let them get to you... in the past I've argued with the,... that doesn't work as one has to stoop to their level to argue.. so that doesn't work... I've tried to avoid them, but found I was only denying myself some good people's company in trying to avoid the few bad apples... Even ignoring them doesn't work, as venomous people will always find the need to spit in certain people's directions regardless of circumstances... Ignoring them just seems to have the least amount of ramifications... Hope this brings you some confort and comes as good advice.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Yah know...I tried peeps, and they never seemed to grow on me. Then I tried a microwave. Anywho... Piratesse - I do understand that your intentions on the thread I think you're speaking of were good and true, but do understand that not everyone will agree with you, and this is the Internet. Folks will voice their opinions, whether you like it or not. My own response is what I felt, and I know that it was not harsh, and hope it wasn't harshly felt. This comes from a happily single woman as of late. To each their own for holidays and festivities, eh? Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@ Dead Men...Tell No Tales.

So, Finish your kit, fly out to Port Washington and if we can arrange period camping.... I'll make Swedish pancakes for breakfast!!

This comes from a happily single woman as of late. To each their own for holidays and festivities, eh? I wasn't directing it at you at all. There are definitely those who want to be single. I was not disrespecting that at all. It's all in what makes you individually happy. Just wondered who else felt happy on that day. I must have hit upon a real sore spot. There were a few who just kept coming at me, wanting a fight. I don't know what makes people like that tick. I felt like saying, "There, there, it's alright."

Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Quite alright milady...I felt no slant towards myself on the discussion. Well...I can see differing points of view on this. On one hand, I look at the folks paired up (or families, or friends) who take on the holiday and do with it what they will, from simple meals together to an all out celebration of their bond. And I see others, paired or not that do nothing on the day. And that's alright with me. On the other hand, I do see our holidays getting more and more commercialized (not just the radio and tv ads, but take a look at the supermarkets and craft stores when certain days roll around). Does kinda make me feel odd from time to time (moreso around Christmas, when I have no family local to me to share the joy with). Does it make me feel bad to be single on Valentines? Naw. And I will find Mr. Right (or Close Enough) someday. Just not right now (cuz I'm at work). :) Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@ Dead Men...Tell No Tales.

Nothing like molten peep guts. And the sugar on the outside fuses. Roasted marshmallows, only crunchy! (For some reason this works especially well if you let the Peeps go several months stale first.)

Red-Handed Jill Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 A co-worker's husband of mine was absolutely mad for them. A couple of years ago, I found a case of them for a good price, so I picked them up and brought them to work. She gave the case to her husband and reported later that he was making his way through them very quickly... I don't like them, but Iron Jack does. And they are starting to feature them on all holidays now, not just Easter, so he gets them several times a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
