WTC is definitely a fun read. Just ask me about the lady on the cover! <br /><br />For Southwest cuisine, we love The Feast of Santa Fe - its very doable and extremely flavorful recipes work even with ingredients we can find in Prague.

There are things you can only eat at fairs -- funnel cakes would be another. Clam chowder is delicious (New England is best). Baked beans are good -- I'm sticking with the New England theme. Plain grilled salmon or swordfish. I think lasagna is a pretty standard American dish, and spaghetti, too.

My mouth still waters when I think about it. Possibly not that easy to get hold of in Waitrose, but worth a try!

But, most of it is meaty, and there is never a time that I wish I ate meat than when someone in front of me is eating shrimp and grits, or a fresh crabcake. Yum. <br /><br />Now that I'm in Oklahoma, though, there is food life here too...The Pioneer Woman is an incredibly popular blog, andChristiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05816345012314338110noreply@blogger.com
