Really, if onions was the culprit, He musta found a few pieces on the floor after his dinner otherwise it was a delayed reaction of over two hours from cleaning the bowl to dinner. It's hard to imagine a wee bit of onion flavored pea soup could be bad but will be more vigilant in the future. <br />I think your M.O. for slot playing is right on. I was hoping we would of got an earlier start for the same reasoning. I play blackjack so it's all in the luck of the draw mixed with a little knowledge mixed.

You will be prosperous. I don't think it was meant for gambling luck anyway. <br /><br />You said you doctored up your peas with onions but then let the dogs lick the bowl. Onions are poisonous for dogs. I don't know why but they are. I certainly don't understand why we can eat them and dogs can't. Maybe that is why they vomited. <br /><br />You think you have left over peas. I cooked an entire 1 lb bag of them. The bag didn't look that big until they finished cooking. I could build something with them. Do some land fill somewhere. They were on sale for 10 cents at Market Basket so I don't feel too bad wasting them. <br /><br />And Rez, I've been to the casinos around your neck of the woods when I have gone up to see my sister. They are pretty small in comparison to ours. Ours are small in comparison to Vegas but big for our town. <br /><br />I went to the casino yesterday because I was bored. I had a theory, you know how much I love theories. I figured that there were a lot of people out drunk, filling up those slot machines on New Year's eve night. I wanted to go early to see if I could clean them out. I hit a lot of machines when I go. I do the dollar machines. I put about $5 in each machine, if nothing, I move on. It is kind of like aerobic gambling. Kill two birds with one stone.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10040510292724803196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2735094423029416610.post-89506064148713789812010-01-01T23:36:37.901-06:002010-01-01T23:36:37.901-06:00Ha Carol, I'm doing your recipe next time.

I bought a small can and doctored it up with bacon fat sauteed onion, garlic and J peps.It tasted great and the dogs licked the bowls for their portion. Musta bought the wrong can or brand. We were big losers this time. I was hot with Black Jack the first hour, but gave it all back the second one. Jenny never hit a lick on the machines. I'm getting dry peas next time. There's just the two of us so it's iffy making much of anything in large quanities.<br />To top it off one of the dogs heaved after dinner upon returning home. The only unusual thing he had all day was the peas.<br />We'll still upbeat about it all even being out a few bucks.<br />There's always the next time. It's really just entertainment for us. We'd spend that much on a night out on the town and risk trouble and a hangover :-)rezdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16757574220755776348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2735094423029416610.post-1303443560480171562010-01-01T23:26:38.100-06:002010-01-01T23:26:38.100-06:00Excerpt from the WSJ "brain article..."
...Excerpt from the WSJ "brain article..."<br /><br />"The left hemisphere has evolved to help us use the world to achieve our ends. But it is a specialist in denial. After a right hemisphere stroke, subjects will often flatly deny that anything is wrong, even when attention is drawn to the fact that half of their body may lie there useless. Or they may say it belongs to someone else, the guy in the next bed. The left hemisphere, ever optimistic, is like a sleepwalker whistling a happy tune as it ambles towards the abyss. Let's wake up before we free-fall into the void."Ivy Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15280286975346056230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2735094423029416610.post-34466677825440971452010-01-01T23:19:59.768-06:002010-01-01T23:19:59.768-06:00Hey Don,
