You are the only other person I have ever heard who knew what "slumgullium" was. My mother always made it & although she called it "slumgullion", it's the same thing! Thanks for the memory & the laugh!

My dictionary says slumgullion is a cheap or insubstantial stew....not sure if that's a good thing or not! Somewhere I have a recipe for oyster slumgullion from a restaurant on the Oregon coast. It sounded anything BUT insubstantial if I remember correctly.

Mmm... we just read about Pa bringing a tin of oysters home for Christmas in Little House (On the Banks of Plum Creek) - it was quite an adventure! And I have been wanting good fresh oysters all day... though last time I ate mussels I ended up in the emergency room so I feel a little uneasy about any shellfish now...

Ha! my hus asked what he could make for dinner tonight - as I am on strike until he fixes the problem of my fruits and veggies sloshing around in swamp muck that keeps flooding the floor of the frige - and I said slumgullium would be fine and he acted like he was making it, but really I did. and then he kept calling it "your mother's spaghetti" all evening. And it is SOOO easy to make nothing but slumgulli(on)um - it's a good rut meal. ;)
