Life in America - I made the move.

[Mrs. Zog]

So how was the pap making episode. Or did I mis the report

It was a disaster. But I managed to salvage it to the point where it became stywe pap.

Let's face it. I will never be a boeremeisie!    I'm a half-Russian, half-French, Germany-raised American. I was not made to cook like I was born in the Free State!

Practice make perfect.
You should have pap at least every second day

[Fudmucker]

When making pap, there are slightly different methods for what you want to achieve.

For soft pap, you mix the meal into cold water add salt and bring up to the boil.
For stiffer pap, you then add more meal to the soft pap to thicken it to the desired consistency. and leave it longer to cook on low-medium heat.
For crumbly pap, you mix all the meal in at once and bring it up to steam, stirring regularly as it is easy to burn.

Ja! Ek stem!

This afternoon I did a job in a VERY weathly area, sort of a private island with a drawbridge (so yachts can pass underneath) and a security guard at a gate house and everything!

VERY rich people live here, including some politicians. So they want to feel "safe" I guess and keep the "riff-raff" out. But they let me in   

Anyway, I digress...

In the garage I came across these two old beauties. One with a flat front tyre.

It saddened me to see them just parked there. Gathering dust. They need to be ridden and enjoyed.

I would say just look at your daily views counter to get an idea of how many peoples lives you touch.

My Rezin Rockit thread was exceeding 1000 views per day the first two months just on Retrorides plus all the otber forums I contribute to.

You and Mrs Z are motivating and funny.

People follow your doings and screwings because you make us feel normal when we have kak in our lives.

Simply put: YOU MAKE A DIFFERENCE. THANK YOU.

I don't look at my daily views numbers. Mainly because I don't even know if this forum has that option 

I do know that the thread has lots of views though, so a few guys and girls must like it 


And in a strange way I feel it helps to share, albeit via the interwebs, our trials and tribulations...

so I'll keep it going for as long as I am able

If you stop the overall readership figures will take a deep dive i am certain.

You are like the most valuable share in trading on a stock exchange.

Mrs Z, I have a bulletproof mealie pap recipe for you. The reason I know it is bulletproof is because even I, who can barely cook an egg, can cook this successfully time and again.

As a bonus, it will take about 1/3 of the time of all these other recipes.

Fast microwave pap
2 cups of mealie meal
2 table spoons of butter
1l water
1 teaspoon salt

Method:
Microwave on high for 10 minutes.
Stir and microwave on high again for 2 minutes.

Pap should be ready.

Decrease the 10 minutes cooking time if you want to use less mealie pap, because 2 cups makes a LOT of mealie pap.

I think equal amounts of pap and water (or slightly less water) will give you something approaching krummelpap, my favourite. You can play with the quantities and see what works.

I used a cup of water, a cup of mealie meal, a teaspoon of butter and half a teaspoon of salt for 2 people. Microwave (covered) for 5 minutes, stir, and microwave for 2 minutes.

You know TeeJay, just today I was driving and thinking that maybe this thread has run its course and I should wind it up.

Gary, we've all come to know you as a man, among others, who only has very good ideas, on just about anything. The above, however, was a really bad idea though.
Maybe you should refer to spend too much time on thinking while you drive! 

Please keep it up, both you and Mrs Zog. This is one of those "frets" that I need to read almost daily. It's like a first cup of very good morning coffee. 
I think way more people are reading your posts, than what the replies would ever reflect.

I have had the pleasure of eating at Ri, and can confirm that the pap she made was lekker!

Apparently there's more to the Free State than just pap. This advert for Boerboel apparel featuring a young farmer from the Free State has generated a lot of "heat" on facebook.

With shorts that tight the poor bugger probably has a piercing falsetto voice.

The wife says I'm just jealous.
