Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support AutomaticWasher.org:

I’ve cooked Pork Chops in Campbell’s Mushroom soup like in the ad above, only instead of water I use 1/2 can of either Dry Sherry or Dry Vermouth, the alcohol cooks away and the wine leaves a nice flavor, I’ll also add a 1/2 to 1 tsp of either rosemary or thyme and some black pepper to taste.

A delicious quick, easy dinner.

*For those that don’t drink, but like the flavor that wine can give a sauce Dry Sherry or Vermouth are perfect because they don’t go sour after opened and the alcohol cooks away, provided you burn it off either by using it to de glaze the pan and bringing it to a boil in a shallow pan to make a quick pan sauce or for a gravy like sauce simmering on low for at least 30 mins will burn the alcohol away.

The regular Milky Way and Snickers bars then were as big as the king size bars today and they only cost a nickel.

When I was 5 years old my Mom would give me a quarter and send me to the Safeway about two blocks away with the instructions to buy a loaf of Kilpatrick’s sandwich sliced bread and with the 10 cents left over I could buy a candy bar for myself and one for my brother Joe, he always wanted a Milky Way and I always got a Snickers.

Ya sure can’t stretch a quarter like that anymore!
