Ärende: bread and salads
========================
Hi Hap,

-> I'd rather have it on the side; that way I can control how much dressing
-> I want on the salad. Some places skimp; others are way too generous with
-> the amount put on the salad.  A cup on the side is much better.

 hn> Agreed! I can dip my fork in the dressing and then
 hn> get some salad, I still get the flavor but not
 hn> as many calories.

I'll pour some on but I can control it vs them dumping it on.  Sometimes
I'll eat everything else but leave a lot of the "filler" iceberg
lettuce.

-> a 4 drawer cabinet. I've got a 2 drawer one in my sewing room with
-> needlework patterns & Steve has a 2 drawer one for military paperwork.
-> Other papers might fill another 2, maybe 3 drawers.

 hn> Anne has been going through ours
 hn> and Purging some of the old files.
 hn> I've been shredding for a week now!

I'll be doing that seriously in the next few weeks. I've pretty well
kept up with it as it's come in but I know I've not gotten everything
that needs it before we move again.

-> -> The Mythbusters are pure nuts; we've enjoyed them. Did you see the
 hn> Coke
-> -> and Mentos episode a couple of years ago?

->  hn> I LOVED that! I still plan on doing something like
->  hn> that with Amanda one of these days!

-> I'd like to see Deborah and Robert do it with Steve. (G)

 hn> It looks like so much FUN!!

Yes, but I'd use pepsi and save the good stuff for drinking. YouTube had
a clip on it a while ago; someone put on a fountains of the Bellagio
type show.

->  hn> So far it's been beyond me...but I'm hoping!

-> It'll come together some year.  Have you tried Splenda?

 hn> I have, it does not carmelize
 hn> very well, and it gets bitter
 hn> before it gets thick enough.
 hn> It did much better than most
 hn> of the other sugar substitutes
 hn> though!

Hmmmmmmmm, part sugar and part Splenda?


->  hn> Yep, I'd call em the heels too. And when
->  hn> we had bread around the were some of
->  hn> my favorite pieces to eat!

-> But they make good crumbs too. I used my new (got it in August)
blender -> for crumbing for the first time yesterday.  That thing has
some powerful -> motor!  Sure beat the old Kitchen Center for making
crumbs. (G)


hn> -> hn> Have you looked on Youtube and seen the hn> guy
 who blends ANYTHING in his blender? hn> Cellphones, nails, glass, you
 name it and hn> he's blended it! Amazing what that blender hn> will do!

No, I've not seen that. A blender with a good motor can chew up quite a
bit. Steve has taken the tip off several spatuals with the old Kithcen
Center one; this one could do that and take half the handle before he
knew what was happening. (G)
