    Random Picture Thread - Part Deux

    I love the cat, LS - it that a mouse hole or a knot hole he's guarding? He's a beauty. Cooksie - that's some excellent photo of the snail - I don't think I've ever seen one "on the hoof" like that. How in the world does he get himself - all of him - tucked inside that shell, anyway? Very...

    A different way to make chicken or turkey croquettes?

    My MIL was stewing yesterday, wishing she had a recipe for turkey croquettes that didn't require them to be deep-fat-fried, as she is always at war with her diabetic condition and can't eat things like that. She wondered if it was possible to bake them - and I have absolutely no idea, as I've...

    Some Inspiration

    A friend sent me this today and it's well worth sharing I've seen better days, But I've also seen worse. I don't have everything I want, But I do have all I need. I woke up with some aches and pains, But I woke up. My life may not be perfect But I am blessed. When I thought about...

    Posting problems

    :whistling:I've been experiencing this problem for some time, now, and I'd begun to think it was my computer - but it appears that's not the case. When I post a "quick reply" message, it won't post and I get an error message telling me that my post is too short and I need to add at least four...

    Does anyone know of an alternative to regular flour?

    :confused:A friend of mine, who is critically intolerant of any foods that include the use of flour - any kind of flour, as well as wheat products. She's in search of something she can use in recipes that call for flour - she emailed us this morning, asking if either one of us knew of anything...

    How to handle pest phone calls!!

    When you receive a phone call that's blocked or "unknown" - just answer it and whisper: "It's done, but there's blood everywhere!" Then quietly hang up! Ian :shitHitsFan:

    What's everyone preparing for the holiday tomorrow?

    Just to kick off the thread, Fallon and I got elected to cook the Labor Day dinner for the whole family - all three of the McCourt kids and assorted families and a pretty large number of Fallon's family, as well. That's just what happens if you miss the family meeting and aren't there to defend...

    Brilliant Baseball Game!!

    Hey Lee, how about that positively brilliant game last night with the Mariners? Fantastic! What a deal. That'll teach people to never get up after the 7th inning stretch and leave, won't it? I don't think the Manager this season is going to have to worry about getting his contract renewed...

    Fruit Kolaches

    Made about three trays of Swedish Fruit Kolaches for breakfast Christmas Day - served with fresh-squeezed orange juice, Italian sausages and scrambled eggs with cheese and hashbrowns. Lots of coffee. Feast fit for the Gods! Really good. Fallon says the Kolaches are a lot like commercially...

    One Whopper of a Baby Announcement!!

    Don't know if anyone's already heard the good news but the Palace in London formally announced today that the patter of little Royal feet will be heard throughout the land in a few months - and Kate is having morning sickness. This is one that the entire world has been balancing on! Good for...

    A nutty early-morning observation

    This is probably going to sound a little nutty to someone who isn't a parent or grandparent, but it's really kind of neat to have the entire family up at the crack of dawn, enjoying an early-morning drink of whatever (for me it's a cold coke, for Kieran, warm milk and for Mommy it's some hot...

    Bacon wrapped scallops with maple syrup

    New to me, anyway, and far different than anything I'd ever eaten before! My sister-in-law made these yesterday as an appetizer and they were incredible - done in a way I'd never have imagined. I don't actually have a recipe, per se, but I watched what she did and this is the result...
