What's New at Shaughnessy's12/20/07 Hello there! Are all of you ready for Christmas? There's only four shopping days left! Celtic christmas was moderately successful for us, and we want to thank everyone again for your patronage! I don't have a lot of time today for updating this page...you may have noticed changes going on over on our catalog pages. I have been studiously working on getting the shopping cart going, and I'm proud to report progress in that department. Please pop on over to our shop and check it out! The dip mixes are up and ready, orders should be processed within 24 hours or so. We are equipped to take PayPal, or you can enter your contact information and we'll make whatever arrangements necessary to process your order. This week's recipe: Add a packet of the dry Cajun or Wild Cajun mix to fried potatoes. I usually prepare my potatoes by chopping up 4 or 5 medium sized potatoes into 1/2 inch chunks, putting them in a microwave safe bowl with a splash of water and throwing them in the nuke-box for about 5 minutes or so, stirring them, and if necessary nuking for another 3 or 4 minutes until the potatoes are mostly but not completely cooked. Then I take a generous portion of porcine lubricant (bacon grease, about 3 or 4 tablespoons) and melt it on medium heat in a large frying pan. Once the lubricant is nice and hot, add 1 small-to-medium sized onion chopped, the mostly cooked potatoes, and the dry mix packet. Stir well and cover, stirring occasionally. Cook until potatoes are done through, about 15 to 20 minutes, or if you like crunchy bits and carmelized onions like I do then cook about 10 minutes longer. Enjoy! 12/05/07 Welcome and Happy Holidays! For everyone who came by to see us at Victorian Country Christmas, THANK YOU! You made the event successful for us. In spite of the rain and the floods you all came to see us and we appreciate it! We're getting all of our Christmas decorations up in our home, and busy preparing for Celtic Christmas next weekend. We're also going to try to do the 42nd Street Market in Portland if the freeway opens up in time. We'll have our famous Decals and Jewelry available for Celtic Christmas, and will be taking the glassware and the food items south to the 42nd Ave Market. (Weather permitting) More recipe ideas for you all: I took some beef, sliced it thin, added a dry packet of our Cajun mix and some oil and sauteed it until it was mostly done, then added onion and bell pepper for some Cajun Fajitas and served on soft torilla shells. Was delicious. I made some mulled apple juice using our Mulling Spices, and added a shot of amaretto to about a cup of spiced cider. LOVELY!! 11/22/2007 Welcome and Happy Thanksgiving! So, here it is Thanksgiving Day, and I'm working on the website while Shaughnessy works her magic on our turkey! On the menu: Turkey with stuffing (of course) mashed potatoes (oh, yeah!) and steamed broccoli with a sauce made of a packet of our Parmesan Tarragon Dip Mix made with 1-1/2 cups mayo and a 1/2 cup milk instead of sour cream ~ YUM!~ We're also having hors d'ourves of cheese lil' smokies, black olives stuffed with our Italian Herb Cream Cheese Spread, celery sticks topped with our Garlic Chive Cream Cheese Spread, and of course potato chips with a variety of our dip mixes. Best wishes to all of you and all your families during this holiday season! ------------------------------------------------------------ Hi there: |
