I have a new computer, previously I have accessed DC through my work laptop. Our main reason for a home PC was so my wife could speak to her family in Panama through VOIP. I would like to speak to someone over the phone. My name is John and I live in Sun Prairie, WI. Just looking for some help...

This is in response to Dove's message regarding her son being diagnosed with Luekimia. Prayers are great, but if you would really like to do something go to the website below and become part of the National Bone Marrow Registry. I have been part of this program for 15 years. In August of 2005 I...

I wanted to make everyone aware of what just happened to me at an H&R Block office. Normally I do my own taxes but in 2006 my wife started a cleaning business and we had income and expenses and I wanted to make sure it was reported correctly. I asked the rep for an estimate of charges prior to...

Ok now that my LCD/ Plasma question has been answered I have another one for you guys. Again please understand that when it comes to the world of computers I am an idiot so please speak slowly and really loud.:smile: ( An American trait used when someone doesn't speak English). I am in the...

When's the last time you changed your batteries in your home thermostat (for the ones that run on batteries). I got home yesterday to find the house very cool. After checking the fuse box I went to the thermostat to find the battery light on. I'm glad it happened now as we are leaving on a trip...

I've run out of my homemeade chipoltles and need to smoke more. I can only find Red Fresno peppers here and the the jalepnos are all green. They look identical. Are the same peppers with different names? Thanks, JDP

I know we have all had that great idea that didn't pan out the way we thought. Mine was last summer. I was trying out my new vertical smoker with a side firebox. I had pork butts and baby back ribs. The meats were rubbed and stood for 24 hours. I was out at 6 am stoking the fire box ready to go...

I have seen a number of posting regarding All Clad SS pans. From what I have read it seems to be the best out there for a number of you. I truly believe in quality myself. I purchsed a number of Calphalon One pans last year and have been extremely happy with them. They sear meats nicely, handle...

Has anyone ever had or made this before. I just tried it and was given a "baby" ( a starter for it). This is a 10 day process that begins with the stater. First 5 days you let it sit in a ziploc bag and squeeze it several times and also burp the bag of air. Day 6 Add 1 C. each milk, flour and...

Is anyone else as fed up with all these people who are filing law suits because they are offended by a Christmas tree? Not to be a religious zelot, but I am very tired of this and it happens every year. The Seattle airport now has to remove all the Christmas trees because they don't have the...

I have finally found real Spanish Chorizo at a specialty market and am looking for new uses. So far I have made a Spanish style omlette ( torta) using potatoes, carmelized onions, chorizo and gorgonzola cheese. I teamed it up with my home made chipotles and made a stuffing for pork...

While in the kitchen I love to crack open a bottle of wine and listen to the Gypsy Kings. It's great music to cook to.

It's that time of year and chicken is now taking the back seat to pheasant, grouse, woodcock, ducks and geese. Does any one have any unique recipes to share. Don't bother with the Campbell's cream of mushroom soup and game, then bake for 3 hours or put in the crock pot all day. Let's see some...

Hey folks I hope I"m doing this right it is my first time.... I just put together a new idea and had to share it with someone and thought this would be a good place. I'm hosting a BBQ this Sunday and have the brisket and pork butts smoked, will make the sides tomorrow and needed a dessert idea...

I was just looking for ways to make chipotle's with my jalapenos coming in and I found this web site.... Cool place I will be stopping by often:chef:
