It looks like the Island Spice brand is the one to get. Thanks.

I would like to make a Jamaican chicken curry dish and most of the recipes I have seen call for "all purpose or chicken seasoning". What is this? Is there a substitute? I have Jamaican curry powder. Smells delicious.

I thought the same thing the first time i made it. The second time, I didn't measure, I just added jam until it looked right. Much better. -
Phillips is still advertising it on it's web site.

I think the bottles hold about I tablespoon. I was going to use some tonight and was planning on measuring a bottle but my dinner plans changed when my neighbour gave me some crepes.

Sure. I assume you mean the beet salad? It's very simple, just beets, goat cheese, toasted nuts, sea salt & p, with olive oil and balsamic. I have this little trove of flavored balsamic vinegars and olive oils and that is what I use. The one shown is a new one, missing the garlic infused olive oil. I'm almost finished the first box.

That yogurt, granola, fruit (usually pineapple) dish is one of my favourite breakfasts and I have it often. A new favourite I have is steel cut oats with applesauce, chopped apples, an egg, maple syrup, cinnamon and pecans. Delicious. Guess I'll go back to eating my lunch - beet salad.

How could that be wrong?

@rotuts we have that type of clamshell here too. I hate them. They are a P.I.T.A.

Yesterday I made two individual Tarte Tartines. I used mini bundt pans which was a mistake. Some of the caramel lealked out but I just spooned it over the tarts. I had never made this before but I thought the recipe had the bak!e time wrong so I increased it by 10 minutes and it still could have used more time. We were only so-so on this recipe. However, I'm going to make it again using a different method. One question I have is this supposed to be sweet at all? I thought it could use more sugar, but not having had it before, I have nothing to compare it to. -

What I like about her recipes, at least the ones I've made so far, is that the recipes can be halved and baked in a smaller pan. Perfect portion for the two of us. -

I It was in the Papineau-Labelle Wildlife Reserve in Quebec. It was a long time ago and I'm sorry, I don't remember the name of the lake. There are a lot of them in the reserve. It's one of those places where you have to register to go in, and also log out so everyone is accounted for. They also weigh your fish on the way out as they keep stats on how many fish are taken per lake and the weight of the fish. The person in charge told me it was the biggest fish caught so far that year.

My friend got skunked also. You need a fishing license to fish on the lake and the limit per person is 3 fish. The first one I caught was the big one. I caught 2 more, a 2 1/2 pound and a 1 1/2. My buddy caught only one and it was too small so back into the lake it went. It was a long time ago and I can't remember what I did with it. It was cleaned and put in the freezer. A friend from work brought me an electric saw so I could cut it up.

Lake trout is lovely. I caught an 8 1/2 pounder once. It was the record size fish taken from that lake that season. First time fishing

Made what is called Sparkling Gingerbread from Snacking Cakes. This was really good. The spices were cinnamon, cloves, ginger powder, fresh grated ginger and crystallized ginger. I'd make this again in a heartbeat.
