I thought Twizzlers were a brand name for licorice...please don't tell me there is such a thing as turkey flavoured licorice. ;-)<br /><br />Yes, I love that J.O is involved in school food, I really do think children (and adults alike) will eat and enjoy really good fresh food if given the chance to properly try it. Parents were always amazed at the food their kids would eat out of my garden or at my house simply because it is fresh and right there, you know?Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01343988569221606506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3559352152168236450.post-19343191464971274032009-10-15T18:49:22.173-07:002009-10-15T18:49:22.173-07:00Hi Louise, a perogie is shaped like a pastie and h...Hi Louise, a perogie is shaped like a pastie and has a delicious filling (ours have mashed potato, onion, cottage cheese, grated cheddar and spices - our favourite) but they are not baked like a pastie. We boil them first and then saute them in butter and spices. They are delicious, I grew up with them. Definitely worth trying.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01343988569221606506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3559352152168236450.post-21312022015878600352009-10-15T11:49:36.737-07:002009-10-15T11:49:36.737-07:00I LOVE that duck!

It has such wonderful edges to it. <br /><br />We watched Jamie's School Dinners when were renovating this house (on my mum's 4 million channel TV) and we STILL talk about Turkey Twizzlers. The kids never got over how stilted the diets of those kids were - and how bland. I couldn't get over how some of them couldn't recognize a potato in its unfried form.sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11005397694258169964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3559352152168236450.post-67944654045005112282009-10-13T23:59:40.631-07:002009-10-13T23:59:40.631-07:00I've never come across a perogie before.

I agree with you about roasted vegetables, and they are so easy to do. Poor duck, and a rather nice duck too. His injuries don't look life threatening, yet! Happy Thanksgiving. xthis is my patchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02865567572989902864noreply@blogger.com
