To move back to the USA is #1. I'll settle for the money I'm expecting to arrive so that at least I know I'll be going for a loooooooooong visit in January. Other material things would be that I could afford to buy tons of toys for my son, one for the hubby and his parents. For myself, a new...

Wonder if they have Bulgarian roots? There is a traditional dish here that has ground meat with cheese inside. Sometimes with peppers or other things as well. It's like a hole inside the meat with these things inserted. I'm also a burger junkie and wouldn't mind this burger if they leave off...

LOL, I never worry about such things. I'm blessed with great metabolism so, I pretty much eat what I want everyday until the end of the month when we're pinching pennies lol. Ideal breakfast would be (and I say ideal not because of the dietary issues but because of availability and...

The cake was nothing compared to the bride and groom it was for :rofl: . Saw this a few yrs ago with pix of the wedding couple as well. :lol:

Where are you at Chef Jen? Even a large trunk wouldn't be big enough for all the things I want from my home in the USA lol !!!!! And that includes alot more than just food. I figured the easiest solution is just to move back which I can't wait to do!! If you said "butterkeks" to me without...

Guess I'll be the bitter cynic as usual lol but, I hate most movies from the 80's until now. Probably cause I'm a TV buff and not a movie person. I do love comedy's from the 1930's though and most of Vincent Prices work. Like several things from the 60's and 70's as well but after that, forget...

I like it a bit hot. It's just everyone else in my life that doesn't like hot stuff lol. I just need the proportions or else it won't come out good at all. I always put too much of one thing and not enough of another or things come out too dry or too wet. Once I have proportions, then I can...

Mandoman, I totally took for granted the lack of alot of ingredients when I left the USA. I briefly lived in China and was shocked and mortified that they don't eat cheese!!!! Kraft was trying to open a factory there to ease them into it but I don't know if that ever happened. I love and LIVE...

Hades, would that make it taste garlicky or spicy? FryBoy, as I said, meat here is very inconsistant no matter where you buy it or in what form. Beef is not that well liked here. Pork is the popular meat here. And the way they cut the meat, I can't tell what it is. The names are even more...

I forgot to mention that I do have oregano, garlic and a can of peeled tomatoes And I loathe beans so I'll leave those out lol. Would anyone happen to have some basic proportions? I'm really a terrible cook in this area. I am way too heavy handed with the stuff I like and not enough with other...

This may or may not sound like a strange question and there may or may not be a strange answer but I'm going to ask anyway even though I'm not sure I want to know lol. I'm wondering what might be considered or called "beef"? I live in Bulgaria for now and I swear the ground beef they offer up...

I would love to have a simple chili recipe that doesn't take long to cook. I realise there are a ton of recipes here and I've looked at a few but with a baby to take care of, I just don't have time to go thru everyone to see if it's what I need. Basically what I need are ingredient...

Dina, this wasn't a contest or anything like that. I just used the word "challenge" because I felt I had a difficult request lol. Feel free to throw in your two cents;) Mandoman, I have already tried corn torts here and apparently the corn meal isn't right so they came out awful. We have tons...

I hope no one hates me after reading my post but.... I know there are very sensitive people out there who are very frightened of horror movies in general and I respect that but I really am lost why so many people think this movie was so "gory". In my opinion, they showed almost nothing. A few...

LOL mandoman, I don't want CHIPS!!! I want beautiful, soft corn tortillas to make enchiladas with but, thanks anyway:)

I totally agree about Angelina Jolie and in my opinion, most actors in the past 20 yrs are overrated. Being a TV buff, I think that many of the TV stars are a heck of alot better than the big screen people. And when I think of multifaceted, I think of Johnny Depp...my fave contemporary actor:)

Thanks for all the info guys. I think I'm more confused now though lol. Skilletlicker: I don't have an exact machine in mind yet. Years ago, I used to see many infomercials on peanut butter machines and even the Bamix mixer was said to be good for it. I was looking on ebay last year and saw...

I hope this is the right area to post a question about peanut butter. I'm curious as to the best way to make homemade peanut butter. I've been told a food processor or even a blender is good but I was wondering if those peanut butter machines might be better and easier to clean? I want it to be...

Angel hair is my favorite spaghetti although I much prefer shells:)

Ayrton, the ice tray idea is absolutely brilliant. Although my freezer is the size of postage stamp due to the fact that I have a mini refrigerator, I could probably do that with those small ice trays or one big one. Where are you living abroad? And do you miss the USA ? Alix, the main staple...

Thanks everyone:) I think I'll play it safe with 3 days. When I asked my hubby how much, he said one potato and I did think that would be hard to mash unless I just do it with a spoon I suppose lol. Rickell, Yes, the doc wants me to add milk. Amber, I live in Bulgaria and I have no clue why...

In a few weeks, my son's pediatrition wants me to start making him mashed potatoes daily. He will be 3 1/2 months old by that time. Since my husband had to translate the doc's orders from Bulgarian to English and he doesn't usually ask the right questions, I'm a bit skeptical about what the...

Four Jobs I Have Had In My Life: Casino Dealer at several Vegas Casinos Fast food: McD's, Taco Bell, Burger King Retail: Michael's Crafts, TJ Maxx, Pic N Save Addressing Envelopes Four movies I Could Watch Over And Over: (not much of a movie person but there are a few) Bless This House...

I absolutely adore just about all flowers but my favorite is the Carnation for looks and scent. Sweet Williams are a pretty close second since they are very similar in shape and have the lovely tint around the edges. I also love Gardenias for scent which were always my mother's favorite and...

Well Andy, I'm big on fried foods and usually make a main course and side dish at the same time. I'm tired of T-Fal because it doesn't seem to last long and thought I would try something that has some durability and since I can't find cast iron pans here (which I really love), I am considering...
