Governments rarely have guts.

In Sweden there is no grey area concerning such things. You can easily get jailed overnight just for being drunk in public, even though alcohol is legal.

A recipe and variation for those days when money is tight or you don't want too heavy of a meal.

Egg Rora or Egg Gravy

Fry 10 slices of bacon till crisp. Drain and crumble. Add 4 Tbsp flour to the bacon grease. Stir and let cook over med low heat for about 1 minute. Beat 4 eggs till thick and add 4 cups milk, 2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper. Mix well and pour slowly into the bacon and flour mixture. Heat slowly till thick, stirring constantly. Add crumbled bacon. Serve over toast or biscuits.

Recipe #2
Heat 3 cups milk over medium heat. Thoroughly beat 3 eggs. Add 1 tsp salt and 1 Tbsp flour to the beaten eggs stirring until smooth. Stir in 1/2 cup of the hot milk to the egg/flour mixture.

I own three crock pots

I also own several electric warming dishes and trays.  When I cook up Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners I go all out.  Takes 3 full days to do all the cooking and I need lots of stuff to keep things warm and yummy.

Thanksgiving is usually simple because it's just the three of us.  We have a Jewish Christmas.  We go eat at a Chinese Buffet.  It felt weird the first year, but now it's a tradition.  Love that sushi.

Likely not too bad. Have heard of parents mixing veggies into fruit smoothies for kids who won't eat them. Say the fruit overpowers in flavor so veggie flavor's not noticed.

I love Spinach, but cold chopped up raw leaves mixed with ice and fruit sounds terrible.

Then you would have been glad that you missed my first cooking attempt.  I heard that food should be colorful, so I put yellow and blue food coloring in the egg mixture for French Toast.  Not only was it unappetizing in itself, but when the toast browned in the pan it amplified the yuck factor.  I was the only one to eat it.
