Joe and James share Christmas messages for 2022.
Poem
Snow falls from heights unseen.
As I stand by lights that twinkle green,
I worry if they’ll make it all right
Driving on this snowy night.
Driving here this Christmas night.
Eventually the doorbell rings.
They’ve made it! Their arms full of pies and things.
In the other room the children play,
And I can’t help but say,
“Oh! What a Christmas day!”
All the family is there, and they talk.
Down memory’s lanes they share a walk,
Sharing their laughter, hopes, and dreams.
Always shall I remember these scenes,
Because this is what Christmas means.
Torpedoes
Basically a torpedo is a Sloppy Joe served in a sub/hogie roll instead of a hamburger bun. If you want a close enough approximation, just use Manwich Thick & Chunky and the proper roll. But if you want it the way Joe's mother used to make it, try this recipie:
1 pounds ground beef
1 green bell pepper (chopped)
1 red bell pepper (chopped)
4 small onions (chopped)
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
3/4 cup water (i.e. just use the empty tomato paste can)Brown the beef. Add everything else and simmer. Some people might use a crockpot.
Serve on a sub/hogie roll.
I heard that most people add crushed red pepper flakes, but those people didn't live in mom's house.
