  1. HiI am a nb in the world of luxury bags.....I live in a small town where I don’t see a lot of premier bags . A few LV ( momogram ) here and there but not often. I am a professional with 3 kids . I have 2 Coach ( Lindsay and Legacy ) that I alternate since 2011) and I use a LC le pliage neo for work ( so 2 bags daily )I wanted to get a LV pochette accessoire to have a luxury bag that was also discrete as I would probably put in le Pliage neo but they are impossible to find....I could also make the big jump and get a Speedy b30 DE as main purse....I am afraid it will be too flashy . I live in Canada so it is pretty expensive here about 1700$ + 15%tax.... Epi would be nice but too expensive Handbag of God.Any suggestions ? What could be a statement yet discrete bag thst would fit my lifestyle ? Is it me ...maybe DE is not loud... actually I have never seen it in my town

  3. Hello! I am thinking about making tomato juice this year and I would like to use the entire tomato. I have Early Girls and if my polish linguist survives the EB I will add some for thickening since hubby likes thick juice. I wanted to avoid peeling and seeding and thought maybe there is a blender that will pulverize these adequately for a thick juice? My MIL has a Vitamix she swears by, but she lives in another state so I cannot try hers out. I thought I would get opinions if anyone uses a blender/juicer in this fashion and how does your machine hold up? read more
  4. We are coming to the end of our mortgage in September and are in a position, given the increase in the value of our property, we have approximately £100k in equity. We want to release some of this do build either a 1 or 2 storey extension when we remortgage. However, if we did this, which would add value to our property, our mortgage would still be based on the valuation pre-improvements. How does it work with regards to the valuation of the house after these improvements? Can you get a valuation on what the property would be worth after the improvements for our remortgage or would we just have to stick with the pre-improvements valuation until we come to remortgage again?

  7. If you're one in ten Americans like me, and live in California, you can't order shroom spores online . However, I have heard of some more "natural" methods of obtaining spores from freshly picked mushrooms. Anybody have any experience, advice, etc on this topic (or on the shroom spore topic in general)? I am not getting solution of this question

  10. 4 cups hot water 3/4 cup kosher salt 3/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed 1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper 6 bay leaves, crumbled 1 X 12 oz. bottle/can beer 1 tray of ice cubes 2 cups cold water Combine the salt, sugar, pepper and bay leaves in a pot and boil for about 15 minutes. Let cool for about 15 minutes and add ice cubes and beer. Put in jug or container in the fridge, it last for months. In a ziplock bag add chicken or pork chops and enough brine to cover the meat (let air out of the bag helps). Let the meat sit in the brine at least 6 hours or longer. Remove meat and wash thoroughly to remove the salt. (Very important or the meat will be salty) Probe and put on the grill, I like to pull my chicken at 170 and pork chops at 150.

  11. I've been playing a game that came with it. To continue you need to put in a user name. Problem is, when that screen pops up, there is no keyboard. I've hit every button on there and I still can't get the keyboard to pop up. After about 24 hours it lets me play a few more games then back to wanting name. The good thing is it governs how much time I waste on that game.

  14. What you guys think about the Kenwood processor? Anyone has experience with this?
  15. I've been using a Cuisinart 7-cup for 7 years and its finally dying. There have been occasions where I wish my bowl was a little bigger. And regularly liquid comes out from the center post if I fill it too high. Minor inconveniences. In the industry people swear by Robot Coupe but that's $1K plus. I'm fine making the leap in price if its worth it. I use my processor 90% for grinding things down - not slicing vegetables. The reason I'm posting this is that with my restaurant closing soon, its tempting to just buy another Cuisinart and leave it with the next owner. OR, I can buy a better machine and take it with me. I'm cheap, but I appreciate value in lasting equipment. Thoughts on the current crop of food processors?
  16. I have a lot of collection of electric smokers. And Reverse Flow Smoker is my best. 20 Pounds Of Pellets Automated Electric Feed System Huge Grilling Area Digital Temperature Control Wood Pellet Technology 3 Year Warranty Reverse Flow Smoker
  17. First off, not a pro ; just average three time a year smoker... but I am originally from Texas, if that gives me any bonuses, I used a cheap walmart offset with lump coal and hickory/mesquite last15 years. Seemed to get good results 90% of the time.I have cooked 4 times now in the new electric "charbroil" digital 30 but now in a state of "fishing" for better; so seeking all advice.This unit has the chip box and regardless of the brand of chips and the amt (1/3, half , full)... I am getting "smoked" (see what I did there?) with two main obstacles.1) the meats have been bland.... juicy, but bland. 2) the off taste I originally thought was large electric smoker taste is really a case of constant degrees of creosote. (ie. stinging bite to tongue andmouth after each event and some rolling of the stomach. Two days ago I tried more chips AND a tube only to just now come off two days of intense "poisoning" to the stomach and hours of stinging mouth. Whether diff temps set or chip amounts, I have thus far never seen translucent blue smoke, its always white and sometimes billowing. So many websites and youtube vids will ooo ahhh about the juicy factor , but its really hard to find honesty regarding those familiar with "offsets" to say "yeah, the electrics cook the meat decent but offsets or grills will win hands down".Also, many reviewers will talk about the pellet trays , but again, hard to find them discuss the quality of the smoky flavor they do or dont produce..... just tonight I bought one to experiment and maybe not use the chip box. So please drop some replies to a few of these specific questions here: these are really what I seek mentors advice:- should I abandon the chip box in this unit? I get a sense there are notorious design issues from net readings.- do pellets , or finer (non-chip) woods burn better and cleaner in these chip metal box units?- will the amazeN tray bypass my problems with the chip box and give cleaner smoke AND stronger smoke flavor to the meat?- are these electric units also negatively impacted by the more items you place on the multiple racks?hopefully, you pros out there will reserve any judgements; I'm just a guy that wanted less time around the firebox
  18. I have found a site for you. Click here to check. Your favourite Electric smoker.
  19. To cook the perfect smoked meat, you may consider a smoker that can provide the right temperature and constant smoke. Choosing Best Electric Smokers means best smoked food to enjoy with friends or family. Smoking refers to cooking meat at a very low temperature of about 67-177ᵒ F for a complete day or more than one day. Whereas, in BBQ, the meat is cooked at a normal temperature for about an hour or two. And for grilling, you cook the meat at a high temperature for a few minutes. For smoking your meat, traditional charcoal smokers are available but they are not easy to deal with. Thanks to electric smokers, it is possible now to smoke meet without any hassle. Masterbuilt 20078715 Masterbuilt has been serving backyard meat fanatics for a long time now. It is a well-known brand that has been around for decades. This latest smoker by Masterbuilt has changed the smoking game with its attractive pros and features. The taste of the meat cooked by this beauty will be just like the traditional charcoal smoker, which is a plus point as the best and natural taste always comes from a charcoal smoker. Extensive cooking space: The best feature of this product by Masterbuilt is that it is huge due to its 975 square inch extensive cooking space which can hold up to 12 chickens at a time on its 4 racks. The racks are durable chrome coated with the best build quality. They are less prone to producing hot spots on your meat which allows you to place it anywhere on the racks without considering the center position. Full foam insulation: The Masterbuilt Electric smoker is fully insulated to make sure the heat produced remains inside. Smoking requires a constant temperature to get the meat cooked properly. Masterbuilt ensures that you serve the best-smoked food to yourself and your guests. Remote control: It’s got a remote control as well to monitor the temperature of the meat inside the device. This feature can come in handy in long cooking sessions where you have to constantly keep checking the temperature and the condition of the meat. LED display: The LED display on the Masterbuilt allows you to easily determine the current temperature of the unit. The display is quite great and the figures can be seen even in bright daylight. Digital control panel: The amazing digital control panel on the device allows you to easily adjust the temperature according to your needs. The digital control panel works fine and is a convenient way to increase or decrease the temperature as per need. The digital controls are better and accurate than the old analog gauges. Wood chip box: Another great thing about the Masterbuilt 20078715 is that the wood chips can be easily loaded into the unit through the smooth side panel. This method doesn’t let the internal temperature of the smoker disrupt because there is no need to open the front door.
