Jonesing for Weird Soda Flavors
 Jones Soda is at it again, just in time for the holidays, of course. Their turkey and gravy soda is coming back, as well as a green bean casserole soda (I don't even like the casserole itself!), and a few others, the least gross-sounding is cranberry soda, which might actually be quite tasty. (Which reminds me - I really miss Schweppes Raspberry Ginger Ale. I haven't seen it in many years and I wonder if they even still make it.) But anyway, my favorite quote from the article is this one: "'Oh, man, I can't drink that!' cries out company chief executive Peter van Stolk, after pouring himself a drink of mashed potatoes." *grin*

What's in the Fridge?
 I call it 'leftover casserole' or 'goulash'. Other people might call it 'cleaning out the fridge' - LOL. I took the bowl of John's remaining homemade tomato sauce, chopped up the three large meatballs, added what was left of a jar of four cheese pasta sauce, plus what was left of a jar of ground beef pasta sauce, plus a nice flavoring of parmesan cheese, and mixed it all up together in a casserole dish. Then I added some cooked penne pasta (had this been a real goulash, such as from my childhood, it would have been wide egg noodles, but what are you gonna do), mixed, sprinkled more parmesan cheese on top for decoration, and popped it in the oven.
I can smell it now - mmmmmmm. There's NOTHING like a house filled with the smell of cooking. If all of those companies that make air fresheners could duplicate that smell, they'd be five times as successful. (Of course, I also think that if they could make a cologne that smelled like freshly baked bread, interpersonal relations would probably reach an all time high. *grin*)
