Today I had a tin of Oxtail Soup for lunch.  It was edible, but what a shock when I read the ingredients list on the tin - only 1% oxtails!!  Can you believe it?  Well of course you can. . .but it is decieving isn't it.
 
I love proper homemade or restaurant made Oxtail Soup or Stew. . .it is just yummy!  I have never seen it on a menu here in the UK and I dont even know if the regular butchers would sell oxtail.  Perhaps one day I will make some myself!
 
So, I am now going to cut myself free from SC and get finished with all the bits that need doing before we leave for our holiday on Sunday.  I hope it will all be well with you whilst I'm gone and I will see you when I get back!
 
Luv Polar

    have a great holiday Polar and don't forget those pics now! I haven't had oxtail soup since I left England,so can scarcely remember it! I do remember the tongue though,I loved that! Have a good one Polar and see you soon!

    beyondtheveil - oxtail soup is no joke, it is as real as shark fin soup or fried ice cream! It is very real my friend! And the tongue is out of this world!!

    I have heard of the soup
  • polarheart said on Jan 26, 2008....
    Hello Everyone!  Just quickly wanted to say:
     
    THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE COMMENTS!!
     
    I am now going to submit my tax return and then get packing and cleaning :-)
     
    Daily, hunny I think I bought that tin of soup, which I had yesterday, for you - and of course I thought of YOU when I opened it!!  And in fact I'm glad I didn't send it because it was too far removed from the real thing. I'm sure that if I ever end up going to one of the celebrity chef restaurants I might find it on the menu, but please let me know if you remember the restaurants name! ((((hugs))))
     
    Love and regards

I feel so completely empty. I've been so depressed lately that I can't seem to remember when I became this way. What happened to me? I can't be happy anymore. I can't bring myself to do any of the things I used to like. All I want to do is sit around and...

What is the cure for a loss of appetite? Recently, I cannot seem to eat much food, nor do I have the desire to eat. I am not sure why exactly, but I have experienced this in the past and have no idea how I got back to eating....
