The Indian and the White Guy

Last night Mrs. G made her World Famous Texas Hot Tamale Pie. Let's just say her version involves cows, buffalo, Jiffy corn muffin mix, cheddar cheese, Carroll Shelby and the good GOP - Garlic, Onions, and Peppers. Most recipes come in a pretty white bread form to appeal to people who don't like a lot of spicing, but Mrs. G knows how to jazz 'em up to our taste.

While she had the cookbook out to refresh her memory, I got to thinking about said book and when and where we got it. Florence Henderson (website) used to have a cooking and talk show with celebrity guests on The Nashville Network and we watched it many times.

I think my favorite comment of hers was when she said that, being from a large family and given that girls wore dresses in the days when she was a child, her family ate so many beans that her feet didn't touch the ground 'til she was twelve years old. Din't need no hoop to billow her dress! Heh.

Anyway, here's the cookbook. It looks like you can get a copy for a penny and on up. I recommend this book for the "Pamela's Chicken Spaghetti" as well as the Tamale Pie. Other good recipes as well.

One of the big featured acts on this show was Williams and Ree (website - read their 'fake history'. Heh.). These guys are clowns and good at it.

Here's a clip of them trying to make a dessert whilst doing a comedy bit or vice-versa. Yeah, it's silly, but it's funnier'n shit. There's plenty more videos of 'em too. Enjoy.
