Sorry to just hear about this Babe. I can relate to this all to well.

Interesting link Janet, and you are right - no marshmallow. I have never encountered them with coconut or sultanas or noodles or peanut butter! The copha makes them very sickly and even adults with a sweet tooth usually stop at one (or earlier). The picture is a lot prettier than anything I...

I like to throw some chops in the oven with some veggies, drizzle with EVOO, balsamic vinegar, honey, sliced garlic, and some dried parsley, salt and pepper, and just bake until cooked thru. Alternatively, we chuck 'em either under the grill or in a fry pan with a little bit of salt on and...

Thinking of you and continuing to wish strength for you both.

Can't say that mine ever looked as great as your photo though!! Makes me want to open a can of pineapple now!!

Is this a known dish that you are trying to recreate or do you just want to make a dish that contains the two ingredients?

Over here they could get prosecuted for even offering it up for sale. Take it back and if they don't accept it, complain to the appropriate regulating body in your city.

Ridiculous!! You can buy kangaroo in most supermarkets and emu pies etc are available on the tourist routes. It has always been a known derision of Ozzies that we do eat our national Coat of Arms! I didn't try any of the proposed flavours - can't say that I even saw any of them on sale! (But...

I like toasted cheese and pineapple sandwiches. I need protein for brekky. The yoghurt I would take to the office with me for morning tea. But personally, I would be using these ingredients as accessories to my dinner instead - pineapple salsa (with chopped red onion and tomatoes and all the...

I am so sorry to hear of Rich's cancer, Beth. My heart goes out to you both. I must also say how brave and strong it is of Rich to make that decision. Treating cancer is not always the best thing. Quality of life is so very important. Put us on the backburner until you are ready. We will...

My quick meals usually involve either potato or pasta or tortillas. A bowl of pasta is very easy to throw together with a can of tuna, tub of tomato paste, cream, herbs, and whatever (suitable) vegetables I have to hand. Likewise, a baked potato in its jacket zapped in the microwave with...

Like I said GB, life sometimes dictates your actions. And I hardly think not having to put down animals is for my convenience! Right and wrong is the black and white point I already mentioned. I know I am morally in the right with my actions irrespective of the bylaws - and my neighbours...

Can you wiggle it?

I know, it is such a pain!! I have to make sure that the counters are empty or that everything is pushed against the wall before I go to bed. If I have nodded off though and it is 2am or some such time, I am so tempted to just ignore it but then I think I don't really want to drive the 30mins...

... and my point about events having an impact on your life and your commitments seems to have been ignored. Life is not that black and white. You have to bend with the flow. And as I said previously, things are different in different countries, and I know that I am relatively typical of my...

Good luck with that one. That has not been my experience in all the years that I have rescued cats, I have only successfully found a home for one of them. Finding homes for cats is extremely difficult. Hence why so many are put down every year. I know that at least half of mine would have to...

I also grew up knowing not to use hot tap water to cook with and I did get told why and while I don't recall the details, I do know that lead wasn't in the answer! Minerals and such contained in the hot water were one reason but also that buy boiling from cold, the impurities contained in the...

A US tablespoon is less than an Australian one, and I think similarly in Europe. So maybe it would be useful if in addition to a Tablespoon measurement, etc, a gram/mls measurement is also offered in brackets. It makes international conversion a lot easier.

Spot on June. That is how I got kidney failure - someone just didn't wash their hands. As to not eating out... well, a nurse said that to me while I was first in hospital. How stupid!! What did she think I was doing? Running down to the hospital kitchen to prepare my own meals? Doesn't...

How dreadful for you!! Like Babe, I too had a fall recently (two Thursdays ago) (well really slipped, not fell). I am still limping around and it hurts to bend at all. I think my body had the sudden need to try out for the Australian gymnasts team as the splits I did were pretty impressive...

Hope it was a good one for you!

Very lucky indeed! I always endeavour to be so careful with fragile or sharp items cos I have so many cats. My house is almost toddler proof because of them!! Even in the drainer, I have to bury the sharp knives just in case. Isn't your hubby just continuing to suffer from domestic...

Presumably the principal doesn't want the bad publicity so is hoping it will all just fade away. But you should report it further. As Wyogal said it is a must do for the police to be notified but presumably you can also take it to the School Board and/or the Education Department or whatever...

Peking Duck is used as a three course meal. The carcass is used to make a broth, the skin is used in the pancakes and the meat is served in a choice of ways - my preferred version being san bow choy. I have also seen more traditional recipes where it takes 24 hours to prepare the duck as you...

Good luck Chile ... although I don't believe you will need it, as I am sure you will be fine! Take care of yourself.
