Canadian Cheese Soup

Not sure why this is Candadian but the interesting ingredient was Hash Browns. Which of course made this so easy to make. I also added frozen green beans to punch up the veggie factor. Plus white pepper.  Took my last Prednisone for my herniated disc. The last two days have been terrible with shakes. Withdrawal symptoms I am sure. Kind of that low blood sugar feeling but I know I was not hungry. Fun Fun Fun.

As far as housekeeping goes, it helps if the Washing Machine works. My loving husband - who is strong like Bull- packed it yesterday and it decided to run with the Bulls- Yep broken. So poor hubby has one more thing to fix and I got to twist the laundry today. Thank goodness the dryer works

Oh Canada

This week kicks of Canada week. Tonight we are serving "Tourtiere". What is it with meat pies? I guess it is like our Hamburger. Most British influenced countries serve them in some form. Fast Food for the masses. Mine I am choosing to not add the top pastry - too much dough for us. Plus I did add some spinach. For desert we are having Canadian Molasses cookies.
We are also looking forward to the Winter Olympics starting. But tonight is all about "Lost" . Of course, I have no grand illusion that the end of the show will give us any sort of conclusion. So I just enjoy the ride.
