    homemade versions...New TV show about cracking secret recipes!!

    I wasn't too interested in Cinnabon, but curious about KFC. I'm really curious about what other recipe secrets he may come up with in the future though, depending on how the show is presented.

    Setting up shop! (Welcome to "Lulu's".)

    Well, you already have lots of great ideas & advise. And I agree with Britesea about pricing too low. Don't forget to include your time invested, and that you are selling 'natural & organic' specialty products that are 'hand crafted'...not mass produced. Many eons ago when I was in Decca in HS...

    Hello From Pakistan

    I'm sorry I don't mean to be rude, but I'm very curious about what you mean by having to plant only 'registered' seeds. I can understand about diseases, but are you saying you have to have government approval for any seeds before planting? Even if the seeds were handed down from your great...

    Beans....to soak or not to soak is the question....

    So what should I be soaking them in anyway? From the sounds of it I should include some kind of acidity like vinegar, lemon juice, etc? If so, how much is the ratio of acidity to water? PS......btw Bubblingbrooks, I noticed your DH has become a member here too. It was kinda hard to miss...

    canning apples

    It's been several years since I've canned apple pie filling, but when I did I just mixed the apples with sugar & spices as if I were making a pie, but in mass quantity & heated it up in a pot, put it in quart jars & w/b for about 20 minutes or so. I never did use clear-jel. I wouldn't think...

    The xXx Gloom & Doom Report

    So according to that definition.....we've had increased trade & industrial activity since 2009??? If so, wouldn't that mean more jobs, productivity and overall money flow?

    Beans....to soak or not to soak is the question....

    Great......that's good to know and thanks for the info & link. Maybe I'll put off the chili until tomorrow & soak in the meantime. With hubby & 2 young boys......anything to cut down on that 'gastric distress' would be a good thing :lol:

    Beans....to soak or not to soak is the question....

    Is it really better or more nutritional to soak the beans before cooking them? If so....in what way? Or does it really matter one way or the other? For years I used to soak them overnight before cooking until one time I had forgotten and ended up just cooking them all day until done and haven't...
