Hmm....The Bush Family cookbook.....

"But this is not some ironic retro-cuisine, designed for those satiated by the River Café. Neither is this a republished work from the culinary Dark Ages of the English post-war period, before Elizabeth David began to educate our taste buds.

This is The Bush Family Cookbook, by Ariel De Guzman, personal chef and house manager to George Bush Snr and his wife, Barbara, from the White House onwards. This is the food George W and brother, Jeb, the governor of Florida, eat at home, this is what the President gets when he returns to the bosom of his family (presumably at dinners where he sits in the corner muttering about "Pop's unfinished business in Iran" until Barbara cuffs him).

It's what the Bushes and their circle like to eat at "informal family buffet suppers" and "casual pool parties" at their homes in Houston and Walker's Point, Maine. And frankly, most of it is odd, bizarre even.

<snip>

The only vaguely interesting recipes - a couple of Arabic dishes - are contributed by a Prince Bandar of Saudi Arabia who, de Guzman, notes, "during his second visit to Walker's Point ... surprised everyone by saying he would cook lunch for the former President and first lady''. The next day he arrived with his own provisions and took over the kitchen. He must have remembered the food from the first time he visited."

and some ideas on how to put files in cakes.

"Revenge is a dish best served cold."

*lol*!

That doesn't come out of a Dumpster.

Go Freegan!

to be able to make that choice.


there are many who have no choice.

There's Dumpsters everywhere. Check out the website for information on how to find the good ones!

i was saying there are many who have no choice but to find their daily bread in a dumpster.


it was a remark on the luxury of being able to choose to eat other's garbage as opposed to HAVING to eat other's garbage.

then there is no other choice.

The reason why people have to eat out of Dumpsters, is because there are too many people who are paying for food. That limits the supply and raises the price. If everyone went Freegan, there would be plenty of food for everybody.

the reason that people have to eat out of dumpsters has to do with a variety of things.


not just corporations.

N.O. Post Katrina Survival Soup

Take one can of...anything you can find. Add one can of water (if you don't have an potable water, leave this out). Heat and eat. Note that this meal will not sustain you for very long. No need to worry though, help is on the way. No, really, help is on the way.

Guantanamo Bay Surprise

Take two pieces of bread and serve with water.

Somebody tell those Brits we really don't eat that stuff!!

Questions for Ariel de Guzman
The Dish on the Bushes

Interview by DEBORAH SOLOMON
Published: October 30, 2005

Q: The recipes in your new book, "The Bush Family Cookbook," are surprisingly fattening. The Bush family recipe for mixed-vegetable casserole, for instance, combines frozen peas and green beans with three cups of mayonnaise and heavy cream. Isn't that unhealthful?

Only if you eat the whole dish.
This is for how many people?

According to the recipe, it serves eight.

There you go!

There you go where? It doesn't sound as if the Bushes believe in dieting.

No. It's a personal choice. I think we're too conscious about what we see and what we read in the newspaper, rather than thinking for our own.

... lots more at link -

:P

:rofl:

I love the Twilight Zone.

Scotch and orange juice (preferably TANG .. it reminds Poppy of Jr.'s AWOL).

Vodka on the rocks -

*nudge nudge wink wink*

It was quoting someone who had worked in the Bu$h home in Houston. She claimed that Poppy likes a couple of Scotch & OJs as an eye-opener in the morning. Yuck. :shrug:

he likes a couple of Scots to open his eyes.:sarcasm:

I think I'd puke.
