Glynis - Hope the pancakes work out and yes, please let me know. And I hope you've got a resolution to the heating!
Becky - Those pizzas looked FANTASTIC! Have you ever tried putting a 'sweet' topping on them? One of the local restaurants here puts peaches and white chocolate on their pizza bases and sells it as dessert.
Marisa - Glad that Kady's feeling better.
Nancy - Thanks for asking about my DH. His stomach's been rather 'delicate' since the middle of the year. It's getting much better but every so often, he just feels like a little petal and wilts.
Ellen - Glad you came in to touch base. I've missed seeing you around.
Robin - Sorry about the spoon size mix-up. I really should have remembered that I use a different spoon size for Asian cooking earlier!
Brandi - nice looking meatballs. Wish DH would eat meat!
Lindsay - Glad the singing went well. Well...if you need help on the BB codes, either Jen or I can help out...just ask.
Janice - A few Dis-sers have been complaining about AT&T lately. Hope you'll get the computer back soon so that you're back posting.
Aimee - Does it cool down where you are? We're having a very changeable spring here. One day heating, the next day A/C and now back to heating.
Alison - Hope Fran is better by the time you read this.
Jen - I don't think we have Mexicorn here. What is it? Is it like a creamed corn?
It's Tuesday night here. Dinner was the standard baked spud. We're back into school and work routines here. But I'm already looking at the calendar towards Christmas.
Last year, my FiL was ill and passed away; so I didn't do my usual Christmas baking. I've missed the baking last year and am keen to get some done this year.
I'm going to have to start looking at working out when to make my Christmas cakes. My aunt that lives in SD gave me a recipe for a Bourbon Fruit Cake. Its from the South and some of you may be familiar with it. This cake freezes and make a great homemade gift to give to family and friends.
The other thing I do is make jam. I'm hoping that strawberries will be plentiful and reasonably cheap this year. It's been a couple of years since I last made jam and my stock is completely empty.
Anyway, have a good day all. I'm interested to see what y'all do for Christmas. Maybe we can have a whole host of Christmas cake recipes for this thread...if you haven't done it before.
I am really hating AT&T.
Sorry I missed it! I did make it to work (thankfully) and the fog stuck around until about noon. And then it burned off and got up to almost 90!
Thursday it's only supposed to be about 60 with lows in the 40's.
Glynis you changed my cookie baking forever! Last year I made so many different kinds of dough and froze them ahead of time, that baking was a breeze. I made one kind of cookie dough, rolled into balls and put onto a cookie sheet. Then I froze them for about 30 minutes, then put them into quart sized ziplock bags and wrote the cooking instructions on the bag. That way I just had to put 12 cookie balls on the cookie sheet and bake, no dishes!!!
In the center there is the grocery store, 2 chinese restaurants, 2 pizza restaurants, library, 3 banks, CVS, and two package stores. I love having so many things so close!!
so all is good.
