Another :welcome txcanoegirl ! -I'll google foo your link soon! thanks for putting it up.. most of them just said to toast the leaves to free the caffeine not really how. Baymule-each one of the bags had about a tablespoon full I should have weighed them.. and the first two extra light and...

I can't wait to hear more! the only thing I've done close to cob is my clay earth oven. it works well. but man that is a lot of work for a whole house! ;) but it would be snug!

I will be here just waiting!!:D I hope you like it as much as I did.

I had gall bladder symptoms for years the "I feel fine as long as I don't eat" and eating making it feel good for about an half hour and then pain/vomit/other icky symptoms requiring constant trips to the can(sorry TMI) had over 5 of the gallbladder tests. every one came back normal.. well...

Okay. I finally got over this cold(thanks my darling grandbabies ;) ) and have the last tea bag brewing-it is labeled dark and it does taste and smell quite like black tea that everyone is used to drinking. I don't think it is as strong flavored tho but I think you may be able to add more for...

hope you feel better soon. Our family had the heeby jeebys thruout the holiday weeks and while they all got better it took weeks before my tummy stopped rebelling. I'm only lactose intolerant and had to have my gallbladder removed(which has it's own nightmare problems to be sure :sick ) So I...

I sure will.. the only reason I got them is the dollar tree near us had seed racks out and at 4 for a buck(and OP to boot) and I let the grand daughter pick some out.. she also picked a packet of large red cherry that is OP and I've grown it before and very tasty but not really the tiny cherry...

Just going by what I personally have observed by doing this.. I do not vacpack things in my mylar-I put in the OA and squish the air out and seal they then suck down and appear to have the same look as my vac packed items.. Not sure if it is a true vacuum or not.. but they suck down like the...

There are also new studies that say that lack of cal is not the reason for blossom end rot. I get a few that will have that problem but it is due to the spent bloom not falling off and holding water(just something I've observed over the years on pointy ended tomatoes in my area). I spend way...

Just how long are you going to be storing stuff for? If it is just from one summer to the next then I wouldn't bother with oxygen absorbers but if you are storing for much longer than yes OA do well.. and you don't need to vacuum seal your jars or bags if you put in OA they will absorb the...

My favorite paste tomatoes from Baker Creek are Opalka and Purple Russian. Purple Russian tends to set more fruit than the Opalka but the Opalka had dryer meatier flesh. both did well in my area here in Michigan. The Purple Russian isn't quite as dark as other purple tomatoes and it makes a...

I can totally see that happening.. almost all of Michigan lost it's apple crop this year.(hum.. last year?) I only had 8 apples on both trees.. that stretch of 80 degree weather in march just about wiped out all the tree crops in my yard. Good thing we had a bumper crop of raspberries.

Nice recipe.. I normally use whey but have always added extra cream to bump up the final amount.. Only thing I do different is I add the salt at the end so if I want to use it for cannolli I can omit the salt or limit the amount. Just a personal thing. :)

I'm kinda with you on this one- that would ruin my mixer for what I use it for the most.. the attachments. I also have many whisks and crank meat grinder and soon will have a grain grinder with an attachment to be able to use it with either the hand crank or the kitchenaid. now if I had an...

Garlic and shallots should(properly) be planted in the fall. you can plant and grow them this spring but the size will be tiny.. :( and if you have the room put in a tiny plot of little finger carrots! my family loves those little things and you can cram them in almost anywhere. we even...

I missed the question on which kind I have.. it is a V2480. Not sure if they still make that one. it is kinda old.. I've put it thru it's paces too. I have to say that it does take a bit longer now to seal things as after about 5 to 6 seals in a row I have to let it cool down. but it still...

I must be lucky then.. we buy black sex links and they are the sweetest gals. I'm having problems with my brown leghorns being the bitey naughtys in the flock! But my best tempered gals tend to be the Ameracanas(sp?) the blue and green egg layers. fat and will rub up on your ankles like a...
