About Me

Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a daily basis. If you find it entertaining, informative, and controversial, then I have done my job properly. Thank goodness too, because Karma has been on my case of late. I'm supposed to bring fifty people into the fold or I'll have to give back the part of Einstein's brain I inherited. No, I'm not one of the Scientists who got a piece of his brain when he died. Karma said, "Eat this knowledge. It'll make you smarter!" The bargain I made with Karma was, if I could change fifty people into Politiores Populos, I would be rewarded with my very own Lamborghini. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Like what you're reading, then read on. P.S. Populo is Latin for people. Politiores is Latin for educated. Troglodytes is English for troglodytes. And Einstein's brain was stolen by Thomas Stoltz Harvey after his death in 1955 and eventually divvied up into 240 pieces. If you just read that last sentence, then you have just learned something and I'm just that much closer to fulfilling my commitment to Karma!

Invited Over For Dinner

I was asked the other day,
"What is your favorite food to eat?"
I have been eating sandwiches since I can remember.
Potatoes have always been a staple in my household because of my
Irish Mother.
I like all kinds of deli meats,
because of my
German Father.
But,
one dish always stands out in my mind.
Our family have made it for all kinds of special occasions,
from birthdays to funerals,
and everything in-between.
Now,
living in
Southern California,
where there isn't a lot of
German Descendants
hanging around,
the only time I get to taste this wonderful dish is when I go back to
Wisconsin
and visit my relatives.
So,
I am going to give you the recipe of this sacred dish
and I want you to try it out.
Once you have perfected making this food,
I want you to invite me over for dinner!
We can celebrate life's great pleasures by eating good food together!
Just
You And I.

 Polish Hot Dish
3 lbs. fresh polish sausage
1 med. onion
1 Lg. can sauerkraut  (I sometimes use a small can, depends on how much you like sauerkraut)
2 small cans sliced mushrooms
3 cans cream of mushroom soup
1/2 can of water
1 12 oz. pkg. of kluski noodles (cooked and drained)

Cook polish sausage, (bring to boil and then simmer 20 minutes) cut into 1 inch pieces.  Chop onion. Drain sauerkraut and mushrooms. Combine all ingredients in a large baking dish or casserole and bake at 325 for 40 minutes. Also, very good in a slow cooker at med. setting for about 3 hours or so.  Makes quite a bit.

- J.R.R. Tolkien -
That is my story and I am sticking to it!
