Couscous for dinner. [Smile]

What a lovely idea. I'll make some too -- thanks, Annie!

Posted by Shareem (Member # 5820) on :

I don't like it, the way this thread disrespects the sacred casbah! [Grumble]

Posted by Annie (Member # 295) on :

Um.... the Casbah being the downtown area of the city and being disrespected how?

Posted by Annie (Member # 295) on :

If you want disrespect of a mosque or another sacred place, I'm afraid you won't be getting any of that here. You'll have to talk to Toby Keith.

Posted by Shareem (Member # 5820) on :

Oh, man....you need to go to the School of Rock! [ROFL]

"Shareem don't like it.....ROCK the Casbah, ROCK the Casbah"...

Ha haha hee hee

Shareem, you only have anonymity if we can't figure out who you are. [Big Grin]

::skewers and roasts Shareem::

I don't know who you are. I'm sure the sentiment is mutual.

Edit: then again, I'm voting this is Pat. Is this Pat?

Posted by Rappin' Ronnie Reagan (Member # 5626) on :

Maybe it means "orgy."

Posted by Annie (Member # 295) on :

orgy my foot, Sharee... I mean RRR.

I made couscous for a church potluck this summer. I was the only one that took any. I guess it didn’t fit in with all the scalloped corn, deviled eggs and jello. *sigh*

Posted by Annie (Member # 295) on :

I love you, dkw. Our monthly church potluck is always a new challenge for me to make something new and wacky. I think the best was sushi in September. A couple people had some up-close-and-personal experiences with wasabi, which you don't slather on like mayonnaise.

Posted by sarcasticmuppet (Member # 5035) on :

yixrib beetak, rrr. 'Hafla' means party, in a very non-orgy kind of way.

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :

Yum! Sushi! Blech! Wasabi!

Supper came out great. Thanks, Annie. [Smile]

Posted by Megachirops (Member # 4325) on :

The Benihina in Miami used to serve their shrimp cocktail with a wasabi sorbet instead of regular cocktail sauce.

Mmmm.

[Smile]

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :

Benihana...

Mmmm.

What are you inferring? I would never use that many smilies in one post! And I know who the Clash are. I wouldn't see School of Rock either. I am offended.

Who else would write "mocking Annie" in their profile?

Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :

heheheh. The said "couscous"

I like saying couscous almost as much as I like saying Hufflepuff.

Must leave thread now. Iranian music gives me flash backs to the Indian music that played non-stop every time we got into the car, about 30+ hours over a five day period.
