NEWS AND COMMENTS

Oh, can't dismiss these. 0-0 with Spain last time, if I recall. Could be a bogey-side again.

(12/06/02 15:08:20) Certainly the bogey-side for South Africa!

ANTHEM WORDS

Paraguayos, Republica O Muerte

(Paraguayans, Republic or Death)

For three centuries a reign oppressed
The unhappy peoples of America,
But one day, their anger aroused, they said:
"An end to this!" and broke the reign.
Our forefathers, fighting magnificently,
Displayed their martial glory,
And when the august diadem was shattered,
They raised the triumphal cap of liberty.



CHORUS
Paraguayans, Republic or death!
It was our strength that gave us our final liberty.
Neither tyrants nor slaves can continue,
Where unity and equality reign,
Where unity and equality reign.


RECIPE

Sopa Paraguaya

4 oz lard, 2 onions chopped, 5 cups water, 1 tsp salt, 2 lbs cornmeal, 5 eggs, 1 cup cream, 1/4 lb soft cheese grated, 2 tsp baking powder, 1 tbs butter

Melt the lard in a pan, add onions and saute, then add water. When the water begins to boil, add salt and cornmeal, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and beat in eggs, cream and cheese (reserve a little cheese for the topping). If batter does not pour readily, add more cream. Now add baking powder. Pour into a greased tin about 10 in by 12 in. Garnish with butter and cheese. Bake in 375F oven for 40 minutes or until golden brown.

Wash down with: Caña (cane alcohol)
