We live in Norfolk, in the east of England, and crab is a local speciality. It's called Cromer Crab which is quite different to other crabs, such as those in the west of England, as they are quite small and have a high ratio of brown meat to white. They are especially sweet and the brown meat is conducive to making into a near-sauce. Super LOVE both seafood and risotto!! Looks and sounds like an excellent combination. It's nearing lunch time and your pictures/details are making me very hungry. Great sharing. THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QueSeraSera Posted September 12, 2020 #6130 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Heritage - on mother's side 100% Dutch, Holland and Friesland. On father's side 50% Norwegian, 50 % English. Father's side was originally presented to my brothers and I as 100% Norwegian, as our long lost English grandfather left Grandma and her kids to run off with some hussy from elsewhere (rumor was exotic California). Granny subsequently remarried the grandpa I grew up knowing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jillyf Posted September 13, 2020 #6133 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Hi Fletcher. Here is the prawn risotto I cooked last week. My husband made stock from prawn and lobster shells from our Christmas meal. We pulled it out from the freezer and made a seafood bisque which was delicious. I made the risotto with the bisque left over. I sautéed the prawns in a garlic butter before combining them with the risotto. Very rich but tasted much better than it looks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am beginning to feel it is time to hibernate. Lola Good Afternoon Lola, Noticed your love of traditional Jazz and if you find lately unsated by new stuff, there is a wonderful band based in New Orleans called Tuba Skinny who where formed in 2009 are run by a very talented multi-instrument lady Shaye Cohn. There is a lot of their stuff if you look through Youtube including a lot of street performances in New Orleans and some extended stuff on tour particularly in France. Shaye manages the band in an interesting style which means that the band makeup on any given day might be quite loose, they must practise with the band to a degree of precision and are extremely “tight” in their freewheeling indulgences but no individual is allowed to "outshine" ie no prima donnas. If you look closely, Shaye sets the starting beat and decides on the fly with quite subtle signals who plays next. Here's and example but do look for more. They are a free-wheeling but well rehearsed and precise trad-band. And sometimes my favourite jazz genre .. some mean ragtime ..... This one has a banjo missing but nevertheless is uplifting ....

Agree that in these days of too many "legal disclaimers" and other twisted techniques that it all gets rather tangled and twisted. Very confusing times!!?? BUT, am glad to know that as of last Friday that I do not have the Covid-19. With reasonable care and proper actions, hopefully it will continue that way. Having light rain now in Central Ohio. Need that moisture. Later today ad the next three days to be very pleasant and mostly sunny. Not too hot with enjoyable highs of 68F, 71F and 75F for Monday through Wednesday. Nice!! Tuesday am will be my kidney stone lithotripsy crushing "fun". Any advice and/or wisdom to share from those who have had that procedure?? First time for me having those sound waves zooming in from outside. THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted September 13, 2020 #6139 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Hi Terry, I am not sure, but I am guessing that is what I had........I went to the hospital early in the morning and was put under.....but it was an out patient procedure. (released that same day). The Dr said it was too large to pass so they had to "break it up". The one thing I do remember....I thought I would be able to go to work within a couple of days....that did not happen. Little did I realize, even though it was out patient, by day 2 my abdomen area was very sore........I had to take off a week. He even said I might have to take off 2 weeks......but I was feeling well enough they released me as ok after a week. So, you might be sore for a while.

UKCruiseJeff Posted September 13, 2020 #6143 Share Posted September 13, 2020 (edited) Thanks both. I find Tuba Skinny so uplifts the spirits and at the end of every tune I find myself saying "yerrrrrr .............." with a smile. What more could you want. This is a very recent under lockdown conditions a part of their contribution to a tribute to Satch. Listen to it all ... but around 21 minutes in is "Any Old Time" .....

That does look tasty and I do approve of your stock making. I always throw shells from prawns etc into the freezer for a second life. Some saffron threads in the stock adds flavour and colour. A bit of chopped parsley might have perked your dish up a bit??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate this added information and helpful follow-up from Lois. Yes, my Tuesday procedure will be as an out-patient . . . AND . . . am expecting to be "sore" for a few days after. BUT, sore for how long and how badly with the pain and discomfort?? Will know more Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday. Maybe! Any others having had experiences from doing the "fun" with a kidney stone lithotripsy?? THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lincslady Posted September 13, 2020 #6148 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Hello Jeff First - how good to hear from you again. I have just had a short listen to the tapes - feet tapping and a silly grin on my face. The most cheering thing for me in recent months. Yes, that lady is a great musician. I don't know how anyone could not tap their feet listening to this. Thanks. In my teens my first boy friend introduced me to jazz - starting with Jelly Roll Morton! We went to a few concerts in Liverpool to see Mick Mulligan with George Melly, when he was young. And I did like the UK bands, Chris Barber, Humph et al. Second love is any good guitar playing, from John Williams who we once heard at the Sydney Opera House, and the likes of Clapton and Santana and especially Jeff Beck. I trust all is well with you, and you are still enjoying your lovely seaside view. Lola 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry in Ohio Hi, I guess that would depend on your pain tolerance?.......it has been at least 2 or 3 years since I had it done and I can't remember exactly. I think I needed pain pills but it was not "terrible". I just know I sat in my lazy boy most of the the time and either watched tv/movies and/ or napped for at least the first few days.

Emtbsam Posted September 13, 2020 #6150 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Thanks Spinnaker. Covid test was a non-event but necessitated driving down to Hopkins to get it done. We are so fortunate to be able to access surgeons at Hopkins for this! another hurricane is headed for Louisiana. We are supposed to get more than 7 inches of rain and a small tidal surge. Thank God our house is 14 feet above sea level. love all the food porn! I will have to check out the jazz performer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
