lol forget standard campaigning, the most pressing issues at hand are whether rats can be civilized, fish is meat, and what kind of pet I would rather have in my house. Does Tyrannosaurus count as civilized? Short of wearing clothes, he seems pretty intelligent, but I don't know what's the deal with him. I've yet to see a Tyranno fan as hardcore as Nia. Fish can be meat depending on how you interpret the definition of "meat." And I would rather have a wingless pigeon because unless that rat is properly trained and clean, hell no I don't want it flying around.
@Al!naJames:
Pigeon in Red Wine Sauce
Amount__Measure__Ingredient__Preparation Method
- 4 Pigeons (squab) – (about 1 lb. each)
- 4 c Chicken stock
- 4 c Red Burgundy wine
- 1 Onion chopped 1 Bay leaf
- 1 Sprig fresh thyme
- 3 Sprigs fresh Italian parsley
- 1 Sprig fresh curly parsley
- 1 sm Sprig fresh rosemary
- 6 To 8 garlic cloves
- 1 t Coriander seeds
- 3 Scallions chopped – both white & green parts Black pepper to taste
- 6 tb Unsalted butter (3/4 stick)
- 4 c Mixed greens and herbs
[hide] Wash and dry the pigeons; with a pair of kitchen shears, clip the wing tips and the ends of the legs from each bird. Cut the leg and thigh joints, wings, and breast meat from the carcasses and set aside. Reserve the carcasses for the sauce. In a large nonaluminum saucepan, combine the carcasses, stock, wine, onion, herbs, garlic and scallions over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 1 hour to allow the sauce to absorb all the flavors. If it seems to be reducing too quickly, add a little water. After 1 hour, increase heat and boil hard until the sauce is reduced by half; strain, season with pepper and set aside. In a large skillet, melt three tb. of the butter over medium-high heat. Saute the legs and wings, turning until they are golden on all sides, about 10 to 15 minutes. Pour the strained sauce over the pigeon, cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until the pigeon pieces are tender when pricked with a fork, about 30 to 40 minutes. Remove the pigeon and stir 2 tb. of butter into the sauce. A few minutes before serving, saute the boned breasts in the remaining 3 tb. of butter for 2 minutes on each side; they will be rare. Mound the mixed greens and herbs on each plate and top with a pigeon piece that has been cooked in the sauce. Slice the breast and serve, passing the sauce separately. Note: To make this sauteed pigeon into a feast, Aude serves it with peeled, roasted and sliced figs and slices of sauteed fresh foie gras.

Remember Sai-chan? When I left AP for several months and came back, the Fandom Pirates (and others) just went nuts, even those who don't post as frequently just came out of nowhere in excitement. It's like there's a homing device that alerts us. :ninja:

Hattori will definitely do well in next year's tourney. Nia is awesome.

Hopefully! After all the work that went into this years, who knows what might happen? Although, I wish I could see the result of Hattori/Mag-Ican'tspellhisname match if the Hattori avvie thing came before the match.
I think if we really want a reunion we should go to fp now
Thx Hattori!
