Hi, smiley - smiley

Doono... does it have meat in it? what is it? I'm a vegeterina...

I'll have some smiley - oj if you have. And if you don't I'll have some smiley - ale (if you don't have smiley - ale, I'll bring some from my pitch, it's no too much of a walk (about 19 pitches), and the weather is resonable today smiley - biggrin)

Jambalaya is a spicy rice dish full of onions, garlic and sweet bellpeppers. Traditionally it is made with meat. However, I worked in a vegetarian restaurant for so long that some times I leave out meat or make two of everything. I havesmiley - oj. No smiley - ale, how about muscadine wine? I have some smiley - cake which I made without eggs and some smiley - corncob also.

Can I swap a smiley - stiffdrinksmiley - stiffdrink for a portion of Jambalaya?smiley - biggrin It's one of my favourites and I haven't made it for such a LOOOOOOOOOOONG time I've almost forgotten what it tastes like!smiley - tongueout
smiley - ermBTW, vegetarian alternatives: Dreamweaver makes a wicked veggie lasagne which nobody would EVER believe was meat-free: it even fooled the cat (recently travelled to the Heavyside Layer, much missed) smiley - sadface

That sounds like a fair trade. Come in and make yourself comfortable. * Places plate of Jambalaya on the table. The rest of the jambalaya is in the cast iron pot on the small fire pit behind the tent, and there is plenty so help yourself. smiley - smiley Would you like some vegan smiley - cake for dessert?

I don't have any particular convictions for/against vegan/other 'PC' foods, I just eat what I like smiley - tongueout.
This tends to include just about anything!smiley - smiley

I made vegetarian jambalaya this time. The cake is pineapple upside down cake because it is easy to make. It didn't need eggs. I really do cook the old vegetarian and vegan recipes sometimes just because I miss cooking them at work now that I work in the office instead of the kitchen (I don't miss the kitchen, just the food smiley - winkeye).

*Drops a six-pack of beer, grabs some jambalaya and makes off, since no-one seems to be around and he REALLY wants some jambalaya.*

* Enters tent carrying a crate of supplies and a backpack.

Now all I need is to start a fire and start warming this place a little. Christmas is over and I need some rest. I wonder if anyone else has come back after the holidays?

* Unpacks supplies: smiley - tea,smiley - cake,.......

Thank you for the smiley - stiffdrink. Would you like some gumbo? I have chicken and andouille gumbo or seafood gumbo. I have rice to go with them. I just need to warm them a little. As soon as I start a fire they will be warmed in no time. There is some smiley - cake on the table if you would like some(my aunt makes a great coconut cake). Of course there is a chocolate cake too.

smiley - wowEspharoth settles by the fire, bearing Dreamweaver. Not being needed in freeing Sgt. Mushroom from the hands of the Dawgs, he has had time to act as her personal Hair Dryer when she got out of the shower at the Campsite Ablution blocksmiley - ok

smiley - puffsmiley - puff That should make a pretty efficient cooking fire for you, Evangeline! But smiley - huh what's this strange ingredient with the chicken in your gumbo? Chicken and andouille??????? is it veg? herb? fish? fowl? alien? who knows? who cares? am I even on the right MB? should I not be addressing these remarks to Questions Only? smiley - ermsmiley - dohsmiley - biggrin

smiley - wow Thanks for the fire. Hello Dreamweaver, nice to meet you. Hello Esparoth, you really are a stunning dragon.

Andouille(on-dew-EE) is a type of sausage. Would you like something to eat? What do dragons eat? I have some salads and tortilla casserole that are vegetarian.

How come Esparoth is not listed in the list of campers? smiley - huh
