After liver, this fun book is always a great source of not eating! The weather is starting to warm up here in Vancouver, but even the rain of yesterday did not inspire me to make this soup.....

Wow this sounds delicious! Love your round up this week! Have a great rest of the week dear!!
Tomato and split pea soup mixed together? Why? Love the touch of the fake crab. Gosh, I bet anyone would think they were eating the real thing. :D I know what I won't be eating today Melynda. Have a good one!
Wow, so nice to know what I for sure won't be serving at my next dinner party!
Reminds me of mock apple pie that my dad swore to me tasted like the real thing. He said my mom had used to make an apple pie, without the apples but used RITZ CRACKERS instead and it tasted the same. Uh, right dad.
oh I'm sorry but thats just gross, yup, not eating that for sure,, ewwww!
Melynda-I just love this Phony Gourmet book you post the "What We are not eating On Wednesday"
I just recently picked up a "doozy" of a book called "White Trash Cooking"...you should hear about some of the weird recipes in there.
For sure this will not be on my list of menus...LOL
I can't even imagine what color that soup would be after mixing tomato and split pea. WHY!!!????????
I love when you do this. I love hearing about posts that inspire others and make them want to try them out. I love the make your own convenience food and the squash? Wow! Can't wait to check out them all especially the lobster bisque. it is calling my name
That "Bisque"? I can't get past the imagined horror of what it must look like. And no, if I look at a bowl of sludge and someone tells me it is something different, my brain will not be tricked into thinking it is "the real thing."
But I look forward to checking out the other links. Thanks for sharing them.
I love your "make believe" Loster Bisque!
Actually, (whispering) Sandra Lee demonstrated a similar bisque recipe on her Food Network show!
Thanks for including the squash recipe. I'm flattered!
Just yesterday, I tried the white chocolate pretzel peanut butter recipe I saw on your blog:

Fake crab? Haha! Never heard of it before and no way I'm making this too! Thank you for the laughs!
OMG I just lost my appetite! I don't know how people come up with this stuff. Thanks for linking me!
Eww, that faux bisque sounds so gross! LOL!
On the other hand, that strawberry cream soda sounds DEEEEE-LISH! :)
