  1. I looked out of my living room window an hour ago and saw a lot of cars coming into my street.Turns out my neighbor 2 houses up who is a realtor is having a baby shower.16 cars in all.She was texting me a few days ago how some Etsy order for a gender reveal party never came and she was wondering if I saw the Usps guy that particular morning.I found out then that she was pregnant and was upset her entire plan for a party was ruined because of this virus.I have been seeing her selling homes and posting of fb with no masks on at all!Now this-we know its her party because there are balloons in front of her house and saw people go in! Only one or two guests even wore masks!No its not an outdoor party we are not seeing anyone outside.We are in Dallas and the numbers have been rapidly increasing.I feel horrible esp because my ds is immune compromised and people like this do not care to be safe nor keep others safe!

    Thanks for the laugh, and the trip down memory lane.  It was bittersweet to see all those posters who don't come around anymore.  < sniff, sniff>

    Ellen I was writing something similar .There are so many old posters there -and some like Nmoira who have sadly passed away.Others posters like Gil-Kalanamak who passed away too.

  4. DD add a bout 1/2-3/4 cup fruit-fresh greens 1 or 2 handfuls,If you want a protein powder or oats,flax and then ,liquid .She uses any available fruit-fresh -Mangoes,Peaches,Bananas,berries, frozen peaches/pineapple  in big bags from Costco or even kroger. You can add spinach,Kale,Oats -Water-nut milk-oat milk -yogurt,100% juice. DS loves pineapple with coconut-smoothie-he adds 1/2 to 1 banana every few weeks.

    Tell him to play around with ingredients and find the best ones. DD also makes a few bags of smoothie fruit bags and throws them in freezer bags when she knows its a  busy week and she says it saves her a lot of time.  

  5. Depending on location the price will vary.We did this last year.My aunt and her kids all got together and shared a 4 bedroom beach condo with a loft.It was expensive $$$$  but they drove from home and so brought/cooked most of their meals.We rented a 2 bed/2 bath condo above theirs and another 2 families on the same floor as us.This was right on the beach so all the units were fairly expensive.None of us thought it would be that expensive but my aunt did warn us and we booked almost 9 months in advance,we also saved a lot on food since we ate a bit at the condo !We did go and have 1 meal out the whole lot of all !

    Good job. I missed that you already had Urad Dal. That's exactly what Peterpan needs.

    Not sure how Rani brand has changed hands. The current website doesn't even mention her. Sad. She was fairly elderly when I knew her. I was a regular in her shop and we'd talk and talk. I assume she passed. The shop is long gone.

    Bill

    🙂 Even the smaller indian stores seem to carry both Udad and whole Udad!I buy the biggest bag of udad since I make dosas/Idlis .

    Oh too bad -I saw nothing about her when I checked that is why I asked.  Sorry about your mom Bill!. 😞

  7. Amber is it Mrs Mungo's recipe?

    Then here it is-

    3 cups oatmeal

    3/4 cup brown sugar

    1/2 cup butter

    2 eggs

    2 cups milk

    1 teaspoon vanilla

    2 teaspoons baking powder

    1 teaspoon salt

    Preparation:

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix all ingredients together (I soften the butter and cut it into the dry ingredients before mixing in the wet ingredients) and pour into 13 x 9 inch buttered pan.

    Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes.

    I add chopped almonds and blueberries and/or bananas after it's finished cooking.

    Eta: You can add an extra egg or two, if you are looking to up the calories and/or protein. It won't change the texture or anything.

    Thank you!! So some questions. Did you find black lentils? And for the chili powder, are you using the same stuff we put in tacos or something different? I'm trying to figure out if I need to hit an indian store to find these things... Love the make and freeze idea. 

    Very interesting, and those dal recipes do look good! I didn't realize dal means lentil. I LOVE lentils. Well I like a lot of things. I just go way back on them so they're right up there as happy comfort food. And this dal makhani is so totally comfort food, mercy. 

    Where do you find black lentils? I'm going to need to do some searching. And to you does the specific chili powder matter? This says kashmiri red chili powder on ministry of curry. And I hadn't thought about what kind of cream the package meant. I was assuming it meant cow milk cream, because they would have to say if it came from a nut/allergen. But that's a good point that I could use what I have lying around. Well except I usually have cream lying around. :biggrin:

    My almost 16 year old son wants to have a LOGO for his blacksmithing business that he wants to start....so he can sell the knives he is making. But he needs a LOGO.  So, I was wondering if someone here could help me by either telling me a free software we could use or by pointing me in a direction to pay someone a reasonable price to have one made.  Thanks. 

    My DD does this-This is her subject and is a homeschool kid too.She said I can send you her info,do pm me if you are interested..Does he need a concept too?

    DD suggested free logo design dot com.
