Connedcoction<\/strong>: \/kond kok shun<\/em>\/ Everyone wanted Grandpa’s recipe for his “Rattlesnake Stew”. He had made it many times and it was always a different and unique connedcoction. His old friends always asked for the recipe, but he told them it was a guarded family secret. We called it what it really was…”Clean out the Fridge Stew”. Proof positive lay in the vast ingredients, which changed weekly: mystery meats like roast beef slices,pieces of cut-up wieners,ham bits, pork chop chunks, chicken fingers, sardines…you get the picture. They were flavored by various bits of peas, corn, beans, pickles, spuds and noodles. All ingredients were of indeterminate age. It inspired my brother to do his dissertation on the fact that most seniors actually get sick and die from food poisoning: Children of the Depression and War-time Rationing who used up all food they hoarded, no matter it’s shelf-life. Etymology:<\/em> Conned (deprived of by deceit;a swindle in which you cheated)& Concoction (any foodstuff made by combining different ingredients;an occurrence of an unusual mixture;the invention of a scheme or story to suit some purpose) Created by:<\/em> Nosila.<\/p>\n

Recipiece<\/strong>: \/res-uh-pees<\/em>\/ Karen: “This chocolate cake doesn’t taste the same as yours. Did you give me the right recipe?” Barb: “Yes, I gave you my special chocolate cake recipiece.” Karen: “Did you say recipe, or recipiece?” Barb: “Would I hold back on you? I definitely gave you my recipiece!” Karen: “I think you’re saying recipiece….”<\/p>\n

Etymology:<\/em> recipe + piece (part of something)<\/p>\n

Dishingenuous<\/strong>: \/dish-in-gen-u-ous<\/em>\/ Mrs. Spaghettini was totally dishingenuous when it came to her pizzelle recipe. She would proudly bring them to church suppers and card parties and listen to the accolades of all the church ladies. However, it was a mystery that no one could duplicate her recipe, even though she wrote it down for everyone. It wasn’t until after her death that her daughter revealed the missing ingredient – homemade wine. Perhaps that’s why the church suppers turned ugly when the ladies started arguing about football, religion and politics. Etymology:<\/em> dish: a particular variety or preparation of food + disingenuous: not straightforward or candid; calculating or insincere (Pizzelles – Italian anise cookies that look like little church windows and taste divine even without the wine) Created by:<\/em> mrskellyscl.<\/p>\n

Potlack<\/strong>: \/POT lak<\/em>\/ Everyone was asked to bring a personal dish to the reunion picnic. There was a large variety of delicious treats, and almost everyone was asked by at least one person for his\/her recipe. People seemed to be giving out their recipes in a willing and friendly manner. For the following year’s reunion, many people tried to reproduce the yummy items. But it ended up being a mediocre potlack because almost everyone had left out at least one ingredient in his\/her “special” dish so it could never be made as well by anyone else. Etymology:<\/em> potluck + lack Created by:<\/em> karenanne.<\/p>\n
