I really hope you got some sleep, Peep. But hey, if you need help with your menus, holler. I do the same with a full-time job. Here's a tip - no soups, stews, or long-cooking sauces in the summertime :wink: IMO, the best way to enjoy all the fresh garden bounty is as simply as possible...

Hi, all. Lilbopeep, I think it was, wanted to see pix of my bruschetta and pork chops with mustard sauce; it's way too late to post them in the dinner thread now (sorry about that), so I started an album and put them there: http://netcookingtalk.com/forums/album.php?albumid=83 Enjoy :chef:

I didn't want to hijack today's dinner thread, so I started a new one. This is related to the dinner thread where Bucky and Lilbopeep started talking about how Grimm's Fairy Tales aren't suitable for children.

Kibbee Patties (spiced ground beef or lamb with bulghur) This is a variation of Lebanon's national dish. The traditional way to make kibbee is to make the meat mixture shown below, then make another meat mixture to use as a filling; then the kibbee is baked or fried. I skipped the filling and...

Here's our delicious Sunday dinner. I put Bam's rub on the ribs at about 8 a.m. and they went on the grill, on indirect heat, at about 6 p.m. These were some odd ribs - I thought they were baby backs, but DH said the package just said back ribs. The portion I got tasted mushy and undercooked...

Fig and Vanilla Balsamic Vinegar. So I bought this delicious vinegar after tasting it in the store. I made a vinaigrette with it last night and served it over romaine, cucumbers and strawberries. It was really good, although next time I'll add mint (this is a version of a recipe they have at the...

Hi, everyone. I haven't been feeling great the last couple of weeks. I ws pretty sure I knew why, and now I know for sure. My hemoglobin and hematrocrit are seriously down and I'm coming to you live from the hospital, where I'll be getting at least two, and possibly four, units of blood tonight...

Hi. On another forum that uses this same software, when you enter a link using the link button, the software automagically retrieves the page title from the linked page and displays that instead of the URL. Could you turn on this feature here? It makes the link a lot friendlier, IMO :smile...

Hi. I'm looking for something different than the traditional American breakfast - DH doesn't like eggs, and we both could stand to reduce our fat intake, so I'm looking for other ideas for breakfast besides eggs, toast, bacon, sausage, pancakes/waffles, etc. As I said, DH doesn't like eggs any...
