Awww . . . I think Ray is saying he misses you and would like to hear from you more! :>)
-
Huh - for me, neither Har-de-har-har OR the Employment law boards are always on. It's always the Wage and Hour thread that always signals new posts. That is weird.

I don't discount your opinion, Pixie, but on the flip side, I don't see how Christy was being offensive. We all know it is difficult to determine the tone of a message on these boards (although I don't know what emotion icon could possibly have hel…

Thanks, James, apparently they were caught in the spam filter, right along with the seminar e-mails. Can you tell me where I might still have a box checked that I'm still receiving those?
-
I actually use my home e-mail address for this - if it was my work one, it would make a whole lot more sense that it might get blocked. It was odd, though - they didn't slowly diminish to a trickle or anything, they just stopped cold. But hey, at …

I think posting policies is a good idea, although posting forms and long policies is quite cumbersome. I think it was suggested above to have James and his team of magicians post the policies/forms - perhaps create a link in a post to a new page? …

Don't count on pronouncing it right - that Minnes-oh-tan accent will probably always come through . . . doncha know there, eh? :>)
-
I know nothing about it, just wanted to comment that I'm amused your two answers so far have both come from Missouri. Maybe you're shooting a little too far south, Larry? :>)

There was an e-coli outbreak a few years ago in this part of the country, and they traced it back to a salad bar in a restaurant. I remember one of the sick in particular, a little girl named Hailey. At the end of a follow up article, the mother n…

Yeah, as a the person of some cats, let me tell you that you MUST purchase a NEW litter box and scoop for serving. :>) I don't know that I could stomach making it but it sure sounds like fun. Thanks for sharing!

OK, 2 cans of pie filling - how many hungry boy scouts does this feed??? Approximately an army, I'd guess! Sounds good - and easy, though.
-
My hubby loves this dish, but it's because it's hot and spicy. Any idea what to add to the sauce to spice it up?
-
Never heard of it, but that doesn't mean a thing. Heck, I haven't even tried making rice with chicken broth instead of water. Of course, I don't make that much rice anyway. Let us know if you try it!
-
I'd have thought that was Beer Doughnuts, Paul, but this is close. :>)
-
Really? Beer IN brownies? I don't know, Holly, we might need you to send around some samples . . . :>) Welcome to the forum, and it's great to have another cook. I haven't hit upon too many gotta share recipes for a while, but it would be nic…

The homemade stuff tastes a thousand times better than the tub from the store. Healthier? There are six grams of fat in a 1/4 cup serving, so it depends on how much you put in your shells. I don't drink milk so I figure any fat I get from other d…
-
I tried it this weekend and it was a hit! I used fat free on all three filling ingredients, and a low fat GC crust. I think the "real thing" would be better, but I didn't feel one bit bad drenching it in toffee sundae topping this way. :>) I …
-
Have you tried it with fat free/reduced fat products? I would guess that if you know what it tastes like to begin with, the "low octane" version might be a disappointment. But, never having tried the original, it might not be too bad. I just lost…

I've been sheltered enough that I've never laid eyes on an Amish person. What is chow chow? I mean, I have a good understanding of what it tastes like now, but I just don't know what it is. . .
-
There's a great seasoning - Salad Supreme or something like that - in the spice aisle. I cook spaghetti, chop up whatever veggies sound good (broccoli, tomato, and green pepper are MUST haves), and I think it's a tablespoon of this spice plus itali…

Fake Grilled Cheese Toast two slices of bread. Place a slice of amercian cheese between, smoosh, and enjoy. It isn't the real thing, but as long as you have access to a toaster, it's better than nothing. I had these sandwiches at our across the …
-
I'm not ashamed to admit I enjoy my mac & cheese from a blue box, but this does sound GOOD. I may have trouble finding gruyere out here among the cows (you'd think I could make my own or something), but I do have a question on the bread. You c…

At least it would be less easily available than just sitting in a tank at the end of the field with no one around, though! Hey, is it true (don't try this at home, kids) that if you put a dollar bill in anhydrous, it'll shrink? MY crazy uncle (no …
-
You know, Gene, I'd never thought of it THAT way. I just thought it was the first thing they thought of as a cover. Nice catch! Safety hit the nail on the head, too - even my hubby and family don't take many precautions when it comes to the anhyd…
-
That's right, SMace - besides, we don't need no stinkin' pro team - we have the Huskers! Oh, wait, it's been rough lately. Maybe we would consider a pro team. I'm not sure what will happen when our meth dealer gets out of the clink . . . her hu…
-
Hmmm . . . I don't remember what the label said. It was long and skinny, and ended up in two pieces when I was trimming the fat off, so I'm just realizing that I was dealing with much smaller pieces of meat. (I was not entirely at fault there!) I…
-
Gene, you may not be aware that I live in a town of approximately 80 people. The ladies' auxillary opens up the town hall (which also serves as the Lions and VFW meeting place) and serves anybody that walks in and puts down a dollar. Now, the nex…
-
Wouldn't you know that the VFW chicken noodle dinner was last night so I ended up not getting to cook it?! I'm hoping for (ahem) better luck tonight . . .
-
I've experimented with a few and had the same results you describe. Whirlwind has two good suggestions - frozen poundcake is one of my favorite dietary splurges and there's no work involved (except on the treadmill afterwards).
