  1. I wrote alfredo on my dinner planner. (I'm trying out ways to be responsible, not sure if I'm a fan.) I don't do alfredo for a variety of reasons, so I'm going to do plain old spaghetti. It's easy since I'll be cooking pasta anyway and tomatoes just don't do me in the way a huge hit of parmesan will. I'm about ready to crash for the day and it's only...
  2. Is there a point to either of those questions? There is clearly a right and wrong answer.
  3. Popcorn Indiana is the brand I always grab for a trip to the theater if I want popcorn. It is so indescribably good, better than theater popcorn imo.
  4. That is a matter of opinion. My husband is rather fond of telling me that in this case, mine is wrong.
  5. Sounds delicious! Well, not the white chocolate part. I got into an "argument" about white chocolate with a Teavana guy Monday night at the mall. I told him finally that white chocolate is a lie. (because there is no chocolate in it) With nothing intelligent left to say he said "you're a lie!" Bahahaha. The whole thing was hysterical. Maybe you had to...
  6. Great... There is a Wendy's in the Target parking lot. Now I want a Frosty and fries too. I already feel 10 pounds fatter and I'm not going shopping until Friday!
  7. The best thing to do when you have concerns about a product is to contact the company with your questions. They are going to be far better equipped to answer your questions than any of us are. While we can all tell you what we drink, and let you know if we enjoy the product your asking about without issue, none of us will be able to help you with your actual...
  8. I was thinking about something like this. For as long as I can remember I've always needed an afternoon pick-me-up. I try to be good and get good healthy snacks in there and they usually do the trick. There are two words I don't use interchangeably but a lot of people do, tired and sleepy. When I need a little pick-me-up in the afternoon it's because...
  9. Is sleep catching up with you at a reasonable time of day? That happened to me after I started getting straightened out with my B's. I'm fine. Until I'm not. And once I'm not I'll crash like an Xbox with a red ring of death. If I've managed to have a hard day that day or generally worn myself out lately I may find myself crashing earlier than I like, but...
  10. Too soon!
  11. You make "that's it" sound positively drool-worthy. We scored some bogo Malibu pre-seasoned chicken breasts at the store last night. Baked those with garlic taters. I also got some Udi's blueberry muffins on sale after I went out to vote today so that's dessert with a cup of milk.
  12. At the mall Friday night I noticed a candy shop was doing chocolate covered... everything. They had chips and bacon and other stuff but whatever. I almost went in for bacon. Almost. My husband also thinks it's weird. At least I know he won't take them.
  13. I didn't inquire about this or read the label on purpose.
  14. On one hand, this is true. And if you are using a work computer to log in it becomes your employer's business what you're doing on their equipment whether or not you're on their time. Many large employers have ways to even track that sort of thing. On the other hand, if you are using an anonymous user ID and posting from home on your own time it isn't any...
  15. Keep in mind, my tips were about that specific recipe (or any for Brazilian cheese bread) and don't apply to bread in general. I'm not good enough with gluten free bread in general to make statements about it like that. Still, I can't recommend the bread enough, it gets made in a mini-muffin pan and all the Brazilian steak houses serve it and no one knows...
  16. If coffee was a problem from a gluten standpoint half the people here would be dead by now. Not an issue. Also Bailey's (I think?) makes a killer red velvet creamer. I use it for hot chocolate but I'll bet it's amazing in coffee.
  17. There is a fair amount of caffeine in green tea, I wouldn't recommend it for someone sensitive. When I say herbal teas, I mean tea that doesn't have tea in it. Black, oolong, green and white tea all come from the same plant and all have caffeine, unless decaffeinated. Herbal teas are different. They're simply herbs, spices, and commonly fruits, dried or sometimes...
  18. Depending on what your other intolerences may or may not be, and what exactly you're going for Brazilian cheese bread is a great alternative to rolls. It does have eggs and they can not be subbed out. I tried making them several times with different egg alternatives and all cause them not to rise properly. The oil can't be something that is solid at room...
  19. That pumpkin tea is really good. I accidentally bought some 2 or 3 winters ago, I didn't look at the label closely and it was in a display with a bunch of herbal teas so I just grabbed it. I had had about 2 or 3 cups when I realized it was actual tea. Oops. (I don't drink tea.) There was much sadness in our house, but we consoled ourselves with other holidays...
  20. You'll find your guts to go again. It'll just take time to get feeling better than time to find your backbone again. I'll have your share of chocolate. You know, to ease your pain. Just trying to do my part.
  21. I've actually never made a ginger snap crust, but I've heard good things. I'm sure that it would positively thrill my husband as he loves the cookies and loves pumpkin pie. Maybe I'll try something new this year instead of the whole making a crust thing for my pie. I'd personally prefer chocolate, but he's anti-pumpkin chocolate anything. He says they don...
  22. I am still seriously considering a cutting board at that price. Just... not for me. My Grammy's kitchen has always been blue everything and our family has always been quite proud of our name. So a blue monogrammed cutting board sounds like a splendid gift if I can check my Christmas budget and see what's what. I just honestly hadn't thought much about Christmas...
  23. To die for. Having a regular, yeast risen, not cake donut is the most amazing thing ever. And if I had to choose between having a single batch of donuts a year and bread ever... I'd take donuts. In a heartbeat. My next batch I'm going to fill with a Boston Creme filling and dip in chocolate. I usually only make holes but I may try making the flat round donuts...
  24. That's a really cool idea, I just wish it wasn't glass. I have one glass cutting board I bought on the premise that it couldn't get CC'd and I can't stand the sound of cutting on it. It's beautiful though, and a great gift for people who like glass cutting boards, shared house or not.
  25. I do almost the same thing, only I just use my toaster on a super light setting. I didn't know about the no crust thing, but I'm too lazy too and I've never had a bad result from using a whole slice of bread to make crumbs. Besides, I could never justify throwing perfectly good bread away so on top of the cutting crusts off I'd have to freeze the crusts with...
