Was the question I had when I was often away from home and
my cat, Pinkeltje, was home alone. At first I was thinking about
hiring a nanny for Pinkeltje but that didn't work out that well.
Then I saw this man on tv who had the same problem with his
cow "Betsie" and he decided to kill her and make really nice
fashionable shoes from Betsie. He looked sooo handsome with
Betsie on his feet! After watching this program I immediately
cut Pinkeltje's head off and made myself a purse. She's always
with me now!

Aw well, I'm not much of a cook, but when Pam and family visited both
Sherry and Pam suggested I post this after I took a pot of beans to
the cookout.
4 cups of dried pinto beans (soaked overnight)
rinse the beans in the morning, dump them in a crockpot and cover with
a couple inches of water
plug in the crockpot and let cook on low all day while at work
When you get home, dump out extra water, and add
1- small can tomato sauce
1- medium sized diced onion
1- medium sized Pace picante sauce
note- you can control spiciness of final product by using mild, medium
or hot picante
optional:
1) any left over hot dogs or sausage you have in fridge
2) for those who like it extra spicey - about quarter to a half a jar
of jalepeno peppers
if you're coming home for lunch the next day, plug it in and let it
cook overnight, or
stick the crock pot in fridge overnight, then next morning take it out
and cook on low all day while at work
ready to eat when you get home

Yes, this recipe is very good! "Cowboy Beans" we called them.
All that was missing was the cornbread!

School for the less than gifted is obviously on summer holiday time.
My roast leg of lamb.
Pick skin of leg of lamb all over & then rub in a mixture of natural yoghurt,
rosemary & ginger. Then thickly baste all over the leg.
Roast as per usual.
Makes great tasting lamb and the gravy from the meat juices is wonderful.
I suppose the same effect to leg of troll could take longer to cook as the meat
is stringy.
Cheers, helen s

Besides, why put out the effort for something that cannot possibly be
rendered fit for consumption? ;-)

It's true - after all, you need something to keep the grill hot, and I
imagine dead troll is cheaper than charcoal.

Indeed, it has several orifaces suitable.

Our biological distinctiveness will be added to your own.
First, we will add a nice fluffy orange tail to your large a.s.
Second, we will give you a new set of furry black ears.
All the better to listen to others.
Third, we will gentically engineer you a nice fluffy white coat.
Fleas included at no extra charge.
Finally, we will have to have you neutered. Can't have those cat/troll
hybrids breeding.

Then, if we follow Tinkebell's logic, we cut his head, and make a totebag
out of his skin? (urgh)
