    We tend to accumulate those--and bubble wrap, then purge the supply
    every so often. Packing pillows are usually popped (G), then the
    plastic goes into the trash can.

    There is a special recycling drive here for that grade of plastic, which includes the plastic bags from a grocery store. If the community
    recycles 500 pounds then they will get a park type bench made out of
    that plastic.

    chicken and set aside.

    That's a great idea. I'll mention that in some places locally where it
    may take root. Bv)= There zre some park board seats up for election
    in the current cycle.

    Title: Trailer Park Surf 'n' Turf Meatball Soup
    Categories: Pork, Seafood, Poultry, Herbs, Soups
    Yield: 5 Servings

    MMMMM-------------------------MEATBALLS------------------------------
    6 oz (170g) raw shrimp; shelled,
    - deveined
    9 oz (255g) ground pork
    1/2 c (60g) bread crumbs or panko
    1 lg Egg
    1 1/2 tb Chopped chives
    1/2 ts Fresh minced ginger root
    Oil for frying
    Salt & fresh ground black
    - pepper

    MMMMM----------------------------SOUP---------------------------------
    4 c (1 liter) chicken stock;
    - preferably homemade
    pn Saffron (opt)
    1 tb Oyster sauce
    1 tb Fish sauce
    1 tb Soy sauce
    1/2 ts Fresh minced ginger root
    Salt
    Several fresh basil leaves;
    - coarse chopped, garnish
    6 oz (170g) small pasta; such as
    - salad pasta
    1 Green onion; fine diced

    Peel and devein the shrimp, if not already done. Chop
    well. Combine the shrimp and the pork with the bread
    crumbs, egg, chives, and ginger in a large bowl. Blend
    well. The mixture should be stiff enough to hold a shape.
    If too moist, add some bread crumbs 1 teaspoon at a time
    to get the desired consistency.

    Roll portions of the meat mixture to form meatballs about
    1" (2.5cm) in diameter.

    Heat the oil to about 375ºF/190ºC in a heavy skillet.
    There should be enough oil, depending on the size of your
    skillet, to be about half as deep as the meatballs are
    wide.

    Sauté the meatballs, turning often, until golden brown, in
    small batches, if necessary, so as not to crowd the pan.
    Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain.

    Combine the stock, optional saffron, sauces, and ginger
    root in a deep saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the
    heat and simmer 10 minutes. Add the pasta and bring to a
    gentle boil. About 5 minutes before the pasta is cooked,
    add the meatballs. Continue cooking until the pasta is
    almost tender. Adjust for salt. Finish by adding the
    chopped basil, remove from the heat, and serve lightly
    garnished with diced green onion.

    Serves 4 to 6

    Hi Dale,


    We tend to accumulate those--and bubble wrap, then purge the supply
    every so often. Packing pillows are usually popped (G), then the
    plastic goes into the trash can.

    There is a special recycling drive here for that grade of plastic,
    which includes the plastic bags from a grocery store. If the

    I know both Wegman's and Wal-Mart have bins for plastic bag recycling,
    don't know if they take other things than bags tho. Wegman's is, in a
    lot of states, doing away with plastic bags but they still have the
    recycle bin for them.


    community
    recycles 500 pounds then they will get a park type bench made out of
    that plastic.

    Neat! I'd like to see that done down here.
