Two tips but no canoe


Here’s a tip:  Leftovers taste even better if you pour homemade stewed tomatoes over them.  No kidding, pour some over leftover turkey tetrazzini, for example, and you’ve got a whole new dish.  Or try pouring them over leftover pot roast.  It will give the roast some extra zip.
And if you don’t have friendly neighbors who are willing to share their tomatoes with you, I guess canned tomatoes would work in a pinch.
Here’s another tip, mostly for bachelors:  If you take two kinds of canned soup and mix them together it tastes more like homemade.  Okay, okay, it tastes a little less like canned.
Try mixing bean soup and fajita chicken soup for instance.  Or mix vegetable with cream of corn.  It almost works with almost anything.
Well, maybe not barley, barley is – well, what can one say about barley?
Oh.  In case you’re wondering what the title is all about, “Tippecanoe and Tyler too” was a presidential campaign slogan a million years ago.  Sorry to be so obscure.
