How is that different from Chili Mac?

I have had this. Once. I made DH promise we would never have to eat it again.

I've never had the other one (waves at JZ), and it doesn't sound appetizing. (Unlike, say, tuna noodle casserole made with canned soup which sounds delicious in a certain kind of mood. It's all about what you grew up with!)

lisah, if you are around, where in the hell do we find out what our new trash days are with the once a week pickup? I'm not finding a sun article on it, and the city website is singularly unhelpful (I can't even find were it lists my normal trash days, and they don't have the new recycle pickups there yet either.)

Argh, Google appears to be down. I can't get to Gmail, Docs, Calendar, or Reader.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Seems OK for me....

If Mother's slumgullion had had a bit more body, instead of individual chunks of hamburger, tomatoes, and macaroni, it might have been better. But the description does include the word "watery", and boy this dish met that description.

It actually sounds good if the meat had some seasoning, the tomatoes were incorporated into some kind of sauce with some spices, with the macaroni added.

Seems okay for me too. I think Google just hates you, Jess.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

My family's variation includes chili powder, garlic, onions, corn, olives, and pimientos in addition to the meat, tomatoes, and noodles. We call it tallarine, and it's included in the Buffista cookbook.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Emeril is visiting Jon and Kate and they're making Chili Mac.

Just thought that had to be mentioned.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

It was goulash in my household, always with elbow macaroni. My gradpa would only eat pasta if it was elbow or spaghetti because anything else was too Italian. Weirdly, I am half Italian, but raised in a with him, I naturaly cook like an Italian American.

It may have included paprika in my house, as I vaguely remember it tasting much more like a Manwhich than macaroni with meat sauce.

Also, this was mae by my grandma, who was an awful, awful Depression era + clinically depressed cook. Although my favorite comfort food is still creamed tuna on toast with mashed potatoes and peas, which my mom hates. Her favorite is "Salmon Loaf".
