No need for forgiveness for being a NZer. It's been top of my 'places to visit' list for an age - I envy you a great deal.
I have a couple of friends over in NZ at this very moment. They've been travelling round the country for about 3 months now, and they're due back next week. So when I next see them, my desire to go to NZ will become even greater, no doubt. And thanks, I will have a cuppa. Then I'm off out for some lunch. |

Hotdish Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Cite This Source Hotdish is any of a variety of casserole dishes popular in the Midwest of the United States and especially in Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota. It consists of a starch and a protein (meat and/or a vegetable) mixed together with a binding ingredient (most often canned soup or a sauce) and a topping. In practice, typical ingredients are potatoes, ground beef and corn, with canned soup added for flavor and as a sauce, and seasoned with salt, pepper or tabasco sauce. Another popular hotdish is made with Kraft macaroni and cheese or plain noodles, canned tuna and peas again with canned soup - usually cream of mushroom - for binding. Cream of mushroom soup is so ubiquitous in hotdish that it is often referred to in such recipes as "Lutheran Binder," referring to hotdish's position as a staple of Lutheran-church cookbooks, although also made and enjoyed by all faiths in the region. Hotdish even made its way into books; Hotdish to Die For, a collection of six culinary mystery short stories in which the weapon of choice is hotdish, is a upper regional bestseller in Minnesota. Panko (Japanese bread crumbs) have in recent years become a popular topping, replacing the traditional (and higher in fat) potato chips. Hotdishes are generally filling, convenient and easy to make, and well-suited for potlucks; they can be eaten either on a plate or in a bowl and may be considered comfort food. And, yes I'd try Yorkshire pudding.

As for 'upping the average age'...Believe it or not, your age isn't that 'up'...We've got LOTS of 'older members' here...Myself included ;) I'd say we're pretty even between the kids, the 20-30s, and the over 30s...At least as far as the people who actually POST here

Thanks to all for your welcome. I do hope to be around for a while - like I say, I've been browsing for a few days and there are some pretty interesting people on this forum.
