OK, but how do they keep those little hats on?

These recipes would be great to have at times like

BUT don't wait until then to copy them.

lots of calls on the scanner on the 4th with the heat so high and lots of people out in parks (in the sun) and a bunch of boaters needing help as well. 2 calls for people hurt from setting off their own Fireworks!

Now it is the 5th and things can get back to normal. <---- and just what the heck is normal anymore! LOL

Yes, isn't it funny that MOST people will not pass this test BUT if you want to come into this Country You have to pass it?

They just had a big swearing in being it was the 4th of July.

NOT good news!

We are having a small drought here that is starting to have some farmers a bit worried.

I don't like (yes I do) to have to go out at 6 am and water the gardens every other day!

7/4/76 &

a.k.a. - Happy 4th of July One and All!

our garden hose is BLACK so it heats up very hot if left on the ground . We have done this before to get hot water for washing up ( in wash pan) .

BUT

Not the best for making instant coffee or for cooking being it was in the hose ( NOT food safe plastic) so remember that.

eatting it fresh : Squash, zucchini ,onion stir fry!

Just slice and cook in a bit of oil in fry pan add salt and pepper if you want.

Some nights that is all we have, it is so good with some Galic bread to go with it!

Man I want some now! and it is 2 am.

Good list!

any help in doing Mushrooms?

buy freeze dried now but getting pricy, so maybe I could dry them when on sale?

I know they will not be like freeze dried but could still use them in stuff I cook.

thanks,

BUT, how much more will it cost to buy a self cleaner?

I know the one self cleaner I had I had to 'lock it' before cleaning, and that made it seal tight (as well as NOT let you open it)?

also I like gas stoves for if the power goes out we can still cook.

sometimes it is hard to do what is right.

OK, I know how you brand a beef cow, the cowboys did it all the time. Ride your horse into the crowd of beef, rope one of them and knock it down. Then get the hot branding iron and put it on their rump.

But how the heck do you get the rope around the chickens leg from a horse? and just how small is the branding iron ?

Thanks for posting all the latest recalls!

If you do cook it and eat it and then get sick ...........................

One of the best things to eat after you get sick would be chicken soup.

OH , Never mind.

Sorry, just trying to make a funny.

BUT, as others have said- better safe then sorry.

So, IF you think it might be bad, then it might be.

So lose the small amout of money you paid for it or eat it and then spend $$$$$ trying to get better?

a guest room .............................................

Have you started taking bookings yet?

Please put us on the list!

Don't know how we will get there but I miss the Ocean!

(spent some of my 'younger' day living on Fire Island)

wow!

I've been in a ten car tractor / traffic jam .

only ten?

On The L.I.E. (NY/ long Island) THAT is the norm!

how about 1/2 to 1 MILE of trafic and you are moving at 10 mph IF you are moving at all.

Did that for a few years when I live on the Island and work in NYC.

...........................men! (and Boys!)

way to go!

Just remember that the stuff you freeze will come out all mush - BUT stilll good in soup and to make bread.

Ain't no way you are gonna be ablr to grill it!

and doesn't it taste so much better when you grew it!

Happy Birthday to YOU
