The crunch factor is there with flavourless iceberg lettuce but not
there with decent flavoured romaine.

Use the stems. They're quite crunchy.
 
Iceberg lettuce isn't completely flavorless. It is quite mild,
however.
 
My gold standard for "flavorless" is distilled water.

I do keep sage on hand and about the only thing I use it for is cornbread dressing. Too much sage gives me indigestion something fierce. But I'm
with you on the sage sausage, somebody else can have my patty.

Scoot over Jill and let me sit on that bench, too. I did not know this about
muscadines nor have I tasted them either.

Let me have Jill's glass; I'll take the sugar added fruit juice if she doesn't
want it.

>Cindy Hamilton
 
That would depend on the lawn... it takes both of us two days every
week to mow and we know all the topography of where we can mow
according to weather conditions and where every rock is. .. and that's
considering ideal weather. It would cost a fortune to have a lawn
service here, and unless they lived here they couldn't do a good job.
We would have to have a couple three kids to keep up the lawn and we
are well past that age. We do maintenence ourselves and hire people
for big jobs like felling large dead trees and stump grinding. With
all the rain this spring I don't know when we will catch up... hoping
to get the vegetable garden in next weekend, too wet for tilling and
much too wet for a 4 yard truck load of top soil to get in. We take
it one day at at a time. there's no way to guess the weather.

  I freeze most of it as soon as it's completely cooled off . It takes
just a few minutes to thaw anything but a loaf , I use the toaster oven
set on about 175°F . The stove is like most new appliances , controlled
by a circuit board and solid state electronics .  This is the second
time I've replaced it ...

If you had a kid, she might be good for 5 years of lawn mowing
before she moved out. If it costs $200,000 to raise a kid, that
would be $40,000 per year for useful years of lawn mowing.
 
Obviously, if you could raise a kid for less or get more years
of mowing out of her, the cost would be less.

Maybe you could use a neighbour's child and pay it with lawn
clippings?

I am not sure if it is the manufacturers and vendors or if it is the new
gluten free fad. There are indeed people who are gluten intolerant, but
there seems to be a lot more jumping on the bandwagon. There re plenty
of food products that contain no gluten. The manufacturers and vendors
never saw a reason to label them as gluten free, but they are probably
concerned about loss of sales to those precious soles who want to
identify as having a special and trendy food allergy.

I will make a list if I ever get Alzheimers. Until then I go down every isle and look. Do I need or want that?
That is how i shop.
Thomas <canope234@gmail.com>: May 31 12:49PM -0700

I do it several times per year. I use stove top stuffing with sweet bell peppers and whatever else., crab, clams or scallops. Depending, I will dust with Old Bay.
I wash the shells for next time. I have about 10 good looking shells.
When made, they freeze well.

yeah, I heard that one too. I hear you can get re-elected on news
like that. I'm waiting for the big checks to hit my bank account that
are flowing in from these tariffs. Billions and billions of dollars I
hear

I'm sorry. I tend to think only in terms of us (U.S.) and that isn't
true at all. Chip makers are going to hurt bad and there goes the
price of your new (whatever) electronic device

What it boils down to is that things have gone full circle. You now have
a President who is as competent as King George III.
