Georgie Boy looks like a cuddler....he is so cute!

I don't know. Hopefully someone will. Welcome to DC!

My mother would take hotdog buns, put hotdogs in them along with whatever else like mustard, chili, etc. Then she would individually wrap them up in wax paper and place on a tray within the fridge. We would grab one, nuke it for a minute and our snack, lunch, etc. was done. That was a...

Even when I buy them, they don't become bushy or lush. They grow taller without adding anything and bolt. It really destroys my chance of Pollyanna bliss when everyone else (or just my sister) seems to neglect herbs but they grow in bunches and batches often year after year. You know? 😠

Momma was so excited to get her microwave and tried to cook many things in it. Things did not generally live up to the hype. My favorite was when she discovered she could pop popcorn in a brown bag. Everyone gathered to watch this! So she prepared a bag, hit the button, and we were all...

Herb question: Every year, I manage to plant seedlings for herbs. They will grow, but are spindly and then quickly bolt. How do I get bushy basil, thicker dill, bouquets of parsley? And how can I get an herb garden that sticks around?

Life skills. I have a soda stream and make my carbonated water with it. I too like cranberry juice and fizzy water.

There are so many recipes for apple pies. I personally enjoy the ones that start with fresh apples. Store-purchased apple pie filling is almost always too sweet for me. Search here for apple pie. You may find a great recipe as we have a lot of fantastic bakers - which I am not, sadly.

@Cooking4Fun This would be "a little this, a little that. Taste, adjust, and repeat." I would start with eliminating the sugar, dropping vinegar to about half, and going 1:1 with ketchup and mayo. At that point, I would adjust until I had the flavor I wanted.

Welcome to DC @kevinsstelly Do you like garlic in sauces or in other things like guacamole?

Wild Thing - The Troggs

Excavating around this house would be a nightmare. Ripped up side walks, landscaping, etc. I'll tunnel. ;)

Momma used to make them. The basic recipe is this: a pound of dried noodles, 48 ounces of broth (or water with bouillon,) a can of cream soup, half of a stick of butter. Bring all but the noodles to a boil. Add the dry noodles and simmer for 2 or 3 minutes. Be sure the liquid covers the...

If it is fresh, Royal Farms Chicken is actually pretty good. I appreciate the breast is not dried out.

We had Royal Farm fried chicken and homemade cafeteria noodles with bread slathered with apple butter. Watermelon for dessert.

I still love the oatmeal pies!

If his apricots were not canned, I would bake them in a low oven for about an hour. Say 225 degrees F to dry them out a bit more after drying them off really well first.

This sounds great!

I had more hope for these! Thanks for saving me from disappointment!

As others said, I would adjust the mayo/ketchup ratio. I would keep some vinegar but add mustard and eliminate the sugar. The oddness of the pizza - I would try it with fresh lettuce, pickles, and fresh onion on it after it baked. I miss Pizza Huts taco pizza!

I've been pulling a page from my grandmother and pressure canning some things such as beef stew, pot pie fillings (just add a biscuit,) pot roast, chili, meatballs in sauces, etc. There are so many things one can make with a pressure canner, and no freezer needed. There are also a lot of...

I have never made rice noodles. Could you give me a step by step or is it too much to write? Also, does anyone know how glass noodles are made?
