    Don't have dry mustard

    I'm making a sausage & egg breakfast casserole with my class tomorrow. I just remembered I didn't get dry mustard. I think the recipe only calls for a tsp or less. Can I just use a spoonful of yellow mustard? I could just leave it out. I don't think it would be a drastic change in taste.

    ISO?

    I've picked up most short cut words, but I haven't figured out what ISO in front of a thread means. It's probably real obvious, but it just doesn't come to me.

    Substitute for cinnamon stick?

    I have a cranberry sauce recipe that calls for a cinnamon stick in the sauce while it is cooking. I don't have cinnamon sticks.

    Butter vs shortening for pie crust?

    Is there a significant difference in taste/texture/workability to justify the expense of using butter instead of shortening to make pie crust? I want my special ed class to have the experience and measuring practice from making apple pie totally from scratch but I am on a budget for the year...

    Problem loading mobile app

    Is there a problem with the Android app right now? I've been trying to log in off and on for 3 days but only get "Contacting remote site" and a nonending wait. I can log into the full site through google, but it isn't the easiest to navigate on this little screen.

    Some idiot on a motorcycle has been breaking windshields of moving vehicles in St. Louis. He goes onto an overpass above a busy highway.

    Newbie from Missouri

    Hi! I can't sleep so I thought I'd be productive and introduce myself so I can stop lurking around the discussions. I'm a special education teacher currently assigned to a high school LifeSkills class. I try to teach them basic daily living skills such as cooking simple recipes, cleaning...
