Great, thanks. Any other ideas, feel free to continue to post!

Cool. Thanks!

Jon, I think this was my problem last night. I was definitely making faces, but it was mostly because of the feel. Very slimy and greasy, but feeling cold too (they were not actually cold). It was like eating the grease from railroad ties or pylons. It was like a silicone based chocolate. Not an awful taste to me.

Across the pond is clearly insane. I love licking the mayonaisy juice from my arms.

Suzanne, can I come over for dinner tonight?

Jon, your teeth don't look yellow on my computer, and I see no bags under your eyes. Mr. vanity. Anil, I didn't even see the liquors. Next time we do this, can somebody please remind me that beer is filling and will make me eat less?

I'd be tempted to dig up the plants!

So thinner aluminum will flex? By the way, I didn't see anything past Canal. Are they on side streets? I did collect cards of all the places I visited and tried to jot down what things cost, but some shops didn't have a THING priced. I have to visit again and findout about weights and flex. Should I look for a certain guage? Sorry if I'm being an idiot.

I LOVE tomato sammiges on white with mayo, salt and pepper. MAYBE some celery salt. Heaven.

I have some distributors in the boroughs, but since I'll be baking in NJ, should I find a company out there? Does anyone have a recomendation or two? I won't be buying in incredible bulk yet, and I just bought a few things at Costco, so I can begin this week. Also, I'm wondering if anyone sells the qualita paper baking pans to begin with before I buy a case. Thank you!

tommy, you have finally suceeded in grossing me out. I absolutely shall. Still have to find pans though.

Oh yeah, I regret not having any of Rachel and Jason's special rum. Save me a shot?

I did? What did I say? I only recall slimy at the end. I really didn't think they were THAT bad. But my palate had about a thousand things on it at that point anyway. Which is why I would have taken the leftovers home to try again today.

Well, I am speechless. Honestly, I am so touched by all of your compliments. I means so much to me especially since I'm going to be in business with these two (or three) items. And ESPECIALLY coming from all of you gourmands, and might I say food snobs? I am really really honored. Truly, the food was amazing. Each dish was as amazing as the last. I only wish I could have eaten more, but as it was, I went home with a fedache. I keep trying to think of what my favorite was, but it's like juggling. One thing takes the place of the last until I come back to the first. GREAT job guys! And for Suzanne and HWOE, how gracious and kind you are to have had us. Thank you so much. Don't worry, Heartlanders, Tommy sucks here too.

That's Horrible....9 month old candy...I'm guilty of the same thing though You probably eat older candy all the time. Candy has a very long shelf life. Some anyway.

Is that real or artificial ass?

Around 3 lbs., no flex, may be lighter, no spells... got it. I am seriously going to have to watch my language at this place.

So, are we talking candy sold only in Japan, or elsewhere? Where are the above sold? I remember the rice candies. We called them ricepaper candies. They were orange flavored. My friends thought I was so cool!

I posted this elsewhere but seems it was on the wrong thread so I'm reposting it here. Question about sheet pans. I was at the Bowery shops the other day, and they were selling sheet pans for say, $5.00, and $16.95. How cheap is too cheap if I'm a careful baker? The $5 ones didn't SEEM flimsy.... Would they warp? Pock? Cause me misery? I need around eight. Any thoughts? I'm working in a convent so they want to keep the cost down, but I don't want to stick them with crap.

So you won't be losing a chocolate, you'll be gaining a "chocolate." That's nice.

I am very sorry for your loss.

I do believe it was more to shut me up in my lamenting the diminishment of beer.

You mean before or after we eat 5 trillion calories of Pecan Pie? It could be the - "and a diet coke" of the party.

Hey! Bring one tomorrow! I'll be your frieeeend.

Just for in case, I'm on the subway, so will only be bringing one six pack. With the pies etc, more will be too heavy for my delicate frame.
