  1. We name our holiday things, like turkeys, hams, etc. Our Christmas ham was George. He was huge, and we canned his leftovers. On the lids I labeled him G F George 2012. In my head whenever I see them in the cold storage I hear it in the old GI Joe theme song sort of way. I know it is probably lame, but it brings us no end of amusement. Home canned meats also...
  2. I was off the the doctor this evening. I love that they have evening appointments. Didn't feel much like cooking though, we broke out a jar of Christmas George and had some smashed taters and gravy. Yum! I was too busy doing 100 things to get my green beans cooking so I'll have some as a late night snack.
  3. Hah! I felt the same way about my tyramine list when the doctor handed it to me. Good thing I live in the valley and don't have the energy to get to a cliff. Seriously, the list is a mile long list of HEALTHY FOOD! I was like what.... the..... hell..... ' And yes, it is a hoot. At least we have something to keep us on our toes into old age.
  4. Some months are worse than others, but I have periods from hell. Endometriosis is a blast. My cramps are so bad that about 6/12 months a year I spend 1-2 days a month curled up in bed completely non-functional. My hormones go completely whacky, PMS doesn't begin to describe how much fun I am in the days leading up to my period. On top of that, I have always...
  5. You know me, always a team player. Such a burden, all this cheese. Tonight, pizza. I couldn't stand all the talk of it last night! I'll check out the thrift shops. I am more of a Griswold girl though, and will probably end up trolling ebay until I find a nice old antique. I still haven't gotten myself a new birthday cast iron pan. I don't have...
  6. Someone mentioned them to me, cause I said I was too lazy to make donuts. Now I need to go buy a pan! Every day. Someone has to eat your share, you aren't eating it.
  7. I figured out the problem with my apple "cheese" bread and it not puffing. I used egg replacer. Apparently it needs real eggs. Tried again tonight and have puffy apple sage little puffballs with pork. We almost had pizza, but then I dragged my husband out of the house to go looking again for the new Living Without. I found it and also indulged in an entire...
  8. We don't need website maintenance. We need people maintenance!
  9. WTH?! Is it like some mass thing going around making people feel bad? I feel like hell, but I guess I can say that I'm fortunate that is only general female hell. And then the milk tank at the dairy broke. And the store is completely out of safe milk for me. Which is my sole consolation. WAAAAA!!!! We could have a regular pity party going here. I'll...
  10. I don't know. There was maintenance and POOF! I feel like some sort of creepy, lurking stalker or something.
  11. GAH! You poor thing. I guess though, if you want a rainbow, you don't have to worry now about being silent and wondering forever if you have accidents. (I've always thought that is far scarier than being sick, even though I stay sick for more than a month.) Glad that it hasn't stayed horrid for too long though. It wasn't that terribly long ago I did pretty...
  12. I'm so easily confused! It was http://www.yummly.com/recipe/Ragu-Bolognese-Food-Network_2?servings=8 which was a direct result of https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/95164-spaghetti-sauce-from-hell/ and let me just get this right out there. My husband hates it. Fine. Whatever. Clearly he was born with defective taste buds.
  13. IH copied it, but I'll just link it because I'm lazy. http://www.ourbestbites.com/2011/02/quick-brazilian-cheese-rolls-pao-de-queijo-2/ I really like it a whole lot. I highly recommend it. They puff up really nicely! I don't know if the recipe says so, but the batter is pure liquid. Don't be alarmed.
  14. Adventurous me tonight. Sometimes you have to be willing to fail in the kitchen if you want something awesome. I was making pork chops and thought to myself, how can I change that cheesebread recipe to go with it. I wouldn't call what came out an utter failure... but I wouldn't recommend making them without cheese, period. I tried very, very finely diced...
  15. There is a local guy here in Utah who has been shut down, is being sued, blah blah blah. He was claiming he could cure diabetes through his some program or other that he learned from some quack over in CO. Scammed a bunch of old people out of money. I don't necessarily think it is complete quackery. I did see one briefly who helped me immensely with...
  16. He isn't a doctor. He is a quackerpracter.... sorry, chiropractor. IMO they should stick with what they went to school for, which does not usually involve practicing medicine. I'm not against alternative approaches. Heck, I'm all for it. But this fad of turning to quackerpracters for medical care is dangerous.
  17. Other than occasionally visiting family back in PA only have a desire to travel once. http://www.tamimiea.com/giraffe-manor/index.html I want to spend a week there. Who am I kidding, I want to LIVE there. The only other place I have ever seriously considered traveling to is Germany. Frankly though, it isn't making the top of the list of things to do til...
  18. It says right on their website that they are gluten free. The link is in the original post. You can of course always feel free to call Hershey about it to verify. Many do eat them with no issue. I indulged a few times with no problems. Not the sort of thing I would eat any more, but not for gluten reasons. I certainly wouldn't turn one down if I were hungry...
  19. I've never really traveled. I mean, I drove from PA to UT but that doesn't really count as travel. I get that Utah is the butt of many jokes. Heck, I used to make them. (I was not mormon when I moved here, they snagged me later.) It really is amazing though how being in the mormon capital attracts so many people from around the world. It is truly a family...
  20. I also tolerate neither! I stay indoors during the day most of the time. I love to spend evenings outdoors though in the summer. It is positively lovely! You know, it is true that Utah isn't really exotic exactly... but we do have a very large immigrant population from all over the world. Now, most of these are mormons, but are also more than happy to share...
  21. I'm partial to Utah. Just sayin'. But really, the weather is great here most of the time, this cold thing is highly unusual. Summers are mild, winters are mild. We have summer sports, winter sports, deserts, mountains, lakes, cities, quick escapes to the country and from people. Really, we have it all and without having to really go anywhere.
  22. Where did I put my cupcake pic? Over in the giraffe thread? I think I could put it here for you. I decided I was too lazy to cook and went to Sweet Cakes in the city for a metric buttton of red velvet cupcakes. I meant to freeze a few when I bought them. Instead I will polish off the last two today. (I cropped most of my other photos, didn't think about...
  23. I like turkey okay. There are plenty of other more delicious things, but I never go more than 6 months or so without roasting me a big fat bird. Done up right they're plenty delicious. As always, you probably have half of us considering braving the cold and snow to be at your place.
  24. Thank you kindly! I had found that and was headed to the store today for some Parm I'm not supposed to be eating. I had every intention of sharing it as soon as I tested it for perfection. I also have to check to be sure my muffin pan is a mini-pan. OMG I haven't used it in so long I can't remember if I have a regular or min muffin pan! Embarrassing. After...
