Instead of announcing a brand recall, the recall should include all other labels made in that specific factory. |

Wife was a stay-at-home mom when I was married. I liked that situation and thought it was the best one. When daughter was age 7 (almost 8) wife left the household. For the next year, I had to rely on babysitters before school, after school and summers. Horrible change for both of us but we adapted. I had good nearby babysitters too. A year later, I quit a very good job with tons of benefits to start my own business. Just to have more time with daughter and less babysitting. At least I had the skills and reputation to pull it off. For the rest of her growing up years, even though I wasn't a stay-at-home parent, it was the same thing to my daughter. I went to work after her bus left for school, worked 6 hours straight with no lunch break, then came home just minutes before she got home. See the plan there? I was home when she left for school and I was home when she got home from school. If there was a school event (parents invited) I was always able to be there. Still needed babysitters during the summer months though but that worked out well with good local babysitters that even became good friends. |

The now uppity Europeans are the ones that came to North America and totally screwed the North American indians. My ancestors did the same. Even Jill's beloved Scottish ancestors sucked. heheh |

To live in one for a year is the real way to learn. And that's only learning about one little area of a country. |

I do know that men in the USA don't go to pubs wearing skirts and drunkenly sing folk tunes. - TV documentaries. I watch and enjoy them all. - Reading books every day. Fiction and non-fiction. - My spare internet time, I like to Google different places. - Good friend that travels the world then comes home and sends many pictures with stories every year. - I live in a tourist destination and get out to meet (sometimes date) many people from other states and even different countries. Yeah...I'm an armchair traveler and I learn a lot. That's the best anyone can do. Vacation trips mean nothing to me. Waste of travel time and I hate travel time. To know another country is to actually live there for an entire year, not just visit for a week or so. A visit lets you see the sights in person but doesn't educate you about the area or the people. You can do that at home. I have a big interest in Alaska but it's such a giant state, I'd have to spend 3 years there to really experience it in three completely different areas. My old boss used to get really mad when I took my annual 2-week vacation and didn't plan to go anywhere. Dumbass. Him: "Why in the world would you take a vacation and not go anywhere? Might as well just keep on working." Me: People save up all year to vacation in Virginia Beach. I can do that without all the expense. I stay at home and ride my bike to the beach. This is why I moved here in the first place. Just one more reason why I was so happy to leave and start my own business. It was very scary to do but sure made me so much more happy to be free of all that crap. Being your own boss is worth a fortune. Bruce knows that and anyone else that ever ventured out on their own. A bit scary at first but very satisfying. |

I always buy a half gallon of whole milk at a time as I don't use much. Just bought one a few days ago and 3 pints are now in the freezer. As I use up one, I take another out the night before I'll need it. No more milk going bad ever. If I ever need more, like for some recipe, it's very easy to quick thaw another pint. If I had more freezer space, I would buy a gallon at a time (and freeze pints) as it is more cost effective. |

Your German is better than mine, so I'll reply in English. I'm fairly fluent in my dialect, but not so much in book German. I eat very little Bockwurst or any kind of sausage. I prefer instead to eat a cut of meat. OK, I'll give it a try. Ich essen sehr venig wurst ueberhaupt Bockwurst. Ich essen lieber einen Stueck Fleisch. OK. I'll give it a shot. Ich essen kein |

Ich essen sehr venig wurst ueberhaupt Bockwurst. Ich essen lieber einen Stueck Fleisch. It may not be grammatically perfect, but neither is my German and you're quite understandable :) |

That's just a matter of personal preference. Personally, I don't ever puree a soup. I don't want to sit spooning in the same exact taste with no texture over and over AND OVER. Boring way to eat. Just use a large milkshake straw for that. This soup gives you plenty of liquid mush from the dissolved split peas. The onions and celery disappear mostly too. The carrot and sweet potato pieces, while softened, they do give a bit of texture and even a bit of taste variation. If you ever make it, try it without blending first then decide from there. |
| Gary <g.majors@att.net>: Jun 20 07:16AM -0400 > Thanks G man, You're welcome. If you try it, report back. One addition that I totally forgot this time... I was planning to add some whole peas near the end of cooking just for some more peaness and texture. Didn't even remember until it was too late. Note: peaness, my invented word but that invites jokes. ;) ------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the recipe. Saved to try someday. :) |
