Sunday Dinner 11/4

Would the leftover grits be similar to corn meal mush?

I think so. You can do the same with polenta, which is yellow corn meal instead of white 'hominy' corn meal.

Ooooh, you've nicked my Gran's "Eternal Beau" dinner service! She bought it 1995, to go with her new (she never had one before) dishwasher.

Which manufacturer made/makes your service?

Which manufacturer made/makes your service?

It's Johnson Brothers, and we use it for our every day dishware. We got some at Marshall's here in the US. They carry a lot of chi-chi closeout stuff, as well as a lot of other stuff like designer overstock, etc. As far as I'm concerned, the best things we've pulled out of there are the tri-ply Calphalon copper cookware, and the Olive and Thyme enamel-over-cast iron cookware.

When the E.B. supply dried up, we got some from eBay.UK and a friend of ours there shipped it to us with other stuff he usually shipped for us to sell, as well as goodies like the round bag Tetley tea and Flake bars! American tea tastes like dishwater now! What the hell were they thinking in Boston that night in 1773??

Just wanted to report that I made Jeff's Broccoli Soup recipe tonight and it is delicious. Thanks Jeff! The nights have been cooler down here and it really sounded so good. I like the fact that even with the cream, it is still a pretty low fat cream soup. No butter, milk, or cheese like so many creamed soups have.

Chuck, thanks for responding; I couldn't for the life of me, remember the name of the manufacturer. I think Johnson Bros made the set my Gran had (Mum now has it). It was purchased via the Argos Catalogue Store Chain. Sold in boxes of four place-settings, I think: Gran bought two boxes.
