Stains on DESCOWARE ENAMEL I have used BON AMI the original one, not the polishing one. Make a paste with water, and put it on the area and let sit over night and wash off. If that doesn't work, you can soak it with bleach and water, this once. It is not a good idea to use bleach much on enamel...

If you don't have a supersweet grenadine, and you add some cumin and garlic and onion, you have a delicious base for any beef, pork or lamb stew or meat dinner. Pour it over the meat along with your favorite seasonings, and it is delicious! A middle eastern favorite!

Using Pomegranate syrup I make my own pomegranate syrup, or grenadine. And I use about an ounce or two with a 1/4 teaspoon of cumin added to any meat sauce, gravy, tomato sauce. It adds a delicious layer of flavor. To make the syrup, I clean about twenty pomegranates, yes I have a tree. I...

"New and improved" is often just not true! I wish I could get my old Chrysler V-8 engine BELVEDERE back! What a great running old car. The cops drove those then! I think the old KitchenAid's were made with more steel and less plastic and rubber, same as the old cars. My newer 1997 Buick had a...
