Wow not a foodie room eh? well technically not room or a room the word
still applies as such
 
space that can be occupied or where something can be done, especially
viewed in terms of whether there is enough.
 
Inasmuch when used speaking from a virtual standpoint the room,
channel, group, newsgroup, pow wow, gathering of strangers, gathering
of idiots and one genius (me), this is virtual space whereas something
can be done, such as but not limited to discussion and trade of
various food, food groups, food types, recipes, and any or all
products and appliances electric or non electric used in the
preparation, cooking, serving, and clean up of said foods and/or
services preformed within the limits and mandates of what was being
originally discussed and/or any tangents and separate discussions that
have been called up for discussion and debate.
 
>discussion of food and cooking. As such, cold cereal is well
>within the charter.
 
All I can tell you is that I can make a much better bowl of gluten
free rice krispies than you can.. because my gluten free soy milk
pour is much much better than yours. and that is a promise!!!

what the hell does that mean anyway? I never sneezed. and when someone
does sneeze what the hell does that mean anyway?

I see you may or may not be using your real name.. In either case it
really does not matter because I just wanted to write something after
you name so that I could look as though I was really important writing
something after someone's name!!! << added for extra effect

I'm right there with ya on that one, Ed.
I don't ever eat morning breakfast but I do like the food so
sometimes a 'breakfast for dinner' meal. Two items are fried over
easy (juicy) eggs and toasted&buttered rye bread.
 
For some reason, they always make the various rye breads in an
oval that just don't fit in a toaster. So when toasting rye, I
cut it in half. Once toasted and buttered, I'll cut those pieces
in half. So....4 pieces from one slice.
 
Just like you with the honey, I'll eat 3 pieces plain with my
eggs and always save the last piece that has orange marmalade or
grape jam. That is eaten last as a breakfast dessert.

Well, our last storm lasted over 4 days. Lots of constant rain
and humidity never below 90% and most days stayed 100% each hour.
Very gloom and doom and depressing.
 
As we rarely get snow here, I actually welcome it and even cheer
it on...the deeper the better. Only because it's the rare fun to
go out an play in and it's always gone within days.
 
So far this winter (first time since I moved here in 1973), not
even a single flake of snow in my area. Not likely to happen
either. Warm temps here in the next week's forecast.

While I respect and even admire you dedication to stick to the old
ways of cooking I do find it difficult in these times to actually make
a fire and fashion a spit for cooking every time I get hungry
 
 
>I do order fries at one restaurant that makes really good ones.
 
I respect you dedication to your favorite french fry making eateries,
but I can not in good conscience eat that crap that fries in gallons
of vegetable fat and or animal lard. When I can make a batch of french
fries using a few squirts from my spray bottle of olive oil/sesame oil
mix equivalent to a tablespoon or 2 to make delicious crispy french
fries that are healthy and gluten free.
 
>maybe 4-6 times per year if that. Rarely make them at home. If I do it's
>because I got a cheap or free bag of frozen ones.
 
>I also have no need to cook gluten free for myself.
 
While I do respect your need or lack thereof for a gluten enriched
product I feel you don't fully understand what all that actuality
means.
 
When you buy (lets go with something very basic) a can of tuna fish
either in spring water or oil do you know what all you are buying?
sure you are buying the tuna fish and the oil/water that comes with it
but do you think there is more in there? Ok well not talking about any
other listed preservatives (IE. salt etc.) have you considered the
fact that if it does NOT say gluten free it may have a wheat product
in it either accidentally or purposefully. When being packaged on
shared equipment that is not thoroughly cleaned between each product
packaged build up of things like flour and other wheat or other wise
gluten products can be shared into other foods.......
 
Well no big deal you say.. well lets consider what else may become
trapped on these conveyers when things are not cleaned and cleaned
often....
There is :
 
Dead skin cells
dust
hair
fecal matter (human, rats, bugs, roaches..etc...)
trash (paper, cloth, etc...)
any other bodily waste either human or otherwise (sweat, bugars
etc...)
 
 
So the point is ALWAYS eat gluten free because cross contamination can
bring on an entirely new meaning when you factor in the human (idiot)
element

Well.... Arrrghh! ;o LOL
I've always thought that was the right spelling. Guess I should
start using my Spellchecker once in a while. Anyway, thanks for
educating me. It just always looked fine to me.
 
I remember once years ago, I wasn't sure how to spell it
correctly. I actually brought the jar to my computer to make it
right. That one time I did but then got it wrong since.
 
Anyway, thanks for finally pointing it out to me. Any day that I
learn something new is a good day. I won't get it wrong again.

My dog loves it! Before you think that too wierd, she's been on

Warmly wierd, I may start the romaine and baby lettuce containers early

I'm still harvesting green onions from last summer ... strawberries
are beginning to peek out a bit and the daffydills are getting ready to
bloom . It's about to get really busy around here . Beehives will need
to be split in a couple or three weeks , depending on whats blooming ,
taters go in the ground on St. Paddy's . Our usual last-frost is 15th of
April , I'm going to wait a week or so after to transplant my seedlings
. I guess you could say I'm and indoor/outdoor gardener .

too.

Way back when I was married, we made them often for a good while.
Mostly to add to salads. Occasional sandwiches but we never
cooked them.
 
We never had a problem with them. I remember only about half the
making details. Made in a Ball canning pint jar, cover with one
layer of cheesecloth and hold that on with the jar ring. Once
watered and drained, store in bottom cabinet shelf laying
sideways. We did take out and water then drain often.
 
 
that said, I do forget many relevant parts of the process..
 
- what kinds of bean we used (maybe tried different ones)
- when first put in jar, maybe soak for some hours first?
- how often did we change the water
- how long it took until good to eat
 
Basically, I remember almost nothing! heheh
I'm going to email the X and ask her. I'm sure she knows. It was
her idea in the first place and she probably still makes them.
 
Never a food poisoning issue if you make them yourself.

I almost exclusively use red potatoes and I look for the smaller
in a bag. They suit me fine for all different potato uses.
Especially baked. To me, russett potatoes are always a far 2nd
choice.

Just talking about flour in general. So much talk about various
kinds of white flour for different things.
 
I've made delicious bread, cakes, pizza dough, pancakes, cookies
all my adult life and I've always used just plain all-purpose
flour...either made by Pillsbury or Gold Medal brands. Never a
fail, never a complaint. So simple yet people here will laugh.
IMO, the last laugh is on them for trying to fix that which was
never broken. I'll get yelled at here for that and called stupid,
ignorant, etc but hey....

Sure. And you can use latex paint for everything. But you
might get better results with a specialized formulation. It's
all in how picky you are.

Who the fuck cares... Everyone on usenet (excluding me of course) is
an idiot. Tomorrow you will wake up and go on with your life as though
nothing ever happened. So if someone is stupid enough to laugh at
something that is not intended to have a humorous effect then tell
them they can kiss your ass..
 
As far as flour you know my opinion, if it contains wheat it is the
devils plaything and should be shunned, spat on, burned, buried, dug
up, reburied, dug up again, vac sealed and sank in the ocean in a
sealed and welded non rusting metal box....

Oh my my my look whose talking off topic and supposedly off charter
now???
 
Well being an amateur painter myself ANYONE that uses latex does not
fully understand what creating art truly is IMHO. I mean any self
respecting righteous man and/or woman that truly loves the art that
they create would use an oil based paint !!!!
 
Unless you are talking about painting a house or any other structure
that is located outside in a non climate controlled area.

The nurse at work that had shingles says it's the worst pain you can have.
She told me to go get my shots. I'm beginning to get the feeling that I
ought to listen to her. It all sounds so scary...

I have never come across Shingles before. Yes I does sound scary. Poor

Shingles can cover quite large swaths of the body. I have broken
enough bones and had enough surgery to get an idea of what you're
talking about. Sucks. I have also seen people damn near covered all
over the back, shoulder and chest with shingles and though have not
experienced it myself, had it described to me by those in the know
(med personnel or dual experiencers) as akin to the sort of pain a
burn victim can suffer.
 
That aside, each person's tolerance for pain is unique. Hard to
compare. No reason to,either.
