    I see only one solution to that problem... TWO tubs! If some is good, more is better! Yummmm :tongue:

    What is your weather like right now?

    Forecast was for freezing rain, but it's snowing huge flakes now, with a few inches so far on top of the ice that was there at 3:30 am. They'll probably cancel school tomorrow, but that means I don't have to fight rush hour traffic to babysit for my stepdaughter. It's so pretty outside right...

    Celebrations!

    Sizz, Max is real a cutie! I'm a softie on the orphans.... 6 of my 10 pets were adopted. DH has banned me from the "shelter day" at the pet store. :angel: But they truly are the best pets... they seem to know how lucky they are. On the charity thing, I discovered PetSmart has "Recycle for...

    Catfish Note to self: Go try catfish in KY and MS. And anywhere else! Found a wonderful little restaurant passing through Lexington, KY, (no catfish though) and made it a point to stop there again on my next cross-country drive. Hmmm, benchmarks. Well, I'm not too picky, but a nice...

    jkath, chocolate is just what I need, thanks! DH took me out for that dinner tonight, it was wonderful! I have a weakness for fried catfish, and this place did it right! Hope everyone is doing well! Hugs to all!

    thank you, thank you... it's a good feeling to know I am not alone in the world! Another DM, how cool! Isn't it funny how they listen to you at work (kinda) about how and what to eat, but at home.....:rolleyes:

    Your post so touched me, jkath, thank you so much! I do see the facility thing in the future (though not immediate). We uprooted them from another state after trying to live near them there for a few years to bring them here where hubby could earn a decent living. So there's the guilt thing...

    Something to look forward to!!! Sigh! DH just called to ask me to drive to his office to pick him up this evening so we could go to dinner. I drove him in this morning, he missed the train because he forgot his glasses. Alas, I have class tonight and can't do it. Raincheck! Friday night it...

    You're right, BZ, this is complicated. As I said in my original post, this is the tip of the iceberg. I was a dietary manager in a nursing home for 3 years, so I'm familiar with the elderly and their traits. MIL does use this as an excuse at her convenience, yet at other times, she knows it...

    MIL for sale! Grrrr, sometimes, with me, anyway, it's not the little things so much as it is ALL the little things that build up. I know it's not healthy for me or the rest of the household, and I am trying to get a grip. MIL is constantly rearranging my stuff in the kitchen, knowing full well...

    So sorry, Lulu! Sounds close to the makings for shortbread though. Best of luck with the re-do!

    Hello fellow "Cookies"

    Thanks MB.... just may have to vent shortly. Need to cool down first so I don't get tossed out of here. :shock:

    Flour Sack Dish Towels

    Posh Chicago has some great 100% cotton, thick flour sack cloths. I love both the thick and the "generic" thin ones, they each have their uses in the kitchen. I confess, after years of adherence to sanitation codes for commercial kitchens, I air-dry almost everything, but cover with a fresh FS...

    Your Best Pork Chop Recipe

    :flowers: :clap: Corinne, I had 8 chops I’d cut from a boneless loin, and must admit I was skeptical that 50-60 min @ 400° would yield leather. But I “bit” when I read the part about cutting them with a fork. OMG, it is so true! I did use cornflake crumbs, as I am not a huge fan of bread...

    Hello fellow "Cookies"

    Greetings to all! This looks like a wonderful forum to join! By way of introduction, though I'm currently starting up an unrelated biz from home, I've worked in the food biz for more than 25 years. I've run bakeries, delis, cut meat, catered, and restaurant cooking. I hope to contribute some...
