  1. @RWood, I just peeked at your website. Your cakes are gorgeous! Sorry for the interruption!
  2. I think they were called Butterflake Rolls, but it doesn't look like they make them anymore.
  3. I went this week and was sad they didn't have my French Cultured Butter. This happens every other time or so. Don't they realize I'm addicted? I picked up a pkg. of their refrigerated ravioli--Brussels Sprouts with Bacon, I think it is. Haven't tried it yet and not sure what I will put on it yet. Just couldn't resist trying it. And, of course, they nailed me once again by having the Butter Toffee Pretzels. Warning: DO NOT BUY THESE! There is some sort of drug in them that makes you unable to stop eating them.
  4. I love those Cambro squares. Will have to look for them. It only took me 69 years to discover that square containers/cannisters fit everywhere better than round ones. I bought round Cambros some years back to use for dough and promptly pushed them to storage boxes in the basement because they are too difficult to deal with. I had no idea they made squares, but they just went on my Christmas list.
  5. Thanks Neighbor! Just noticed you are in KCK.
  6. @Norm Matthews, my sister also made a pecan pie cobbler that was delicious. I need to get the recipe. @Shelby, your green bean/mushroom tart looks wonderful!
  7. I've been watching because that's what I usually pick up just for the two of us. Haven't seen any bone-in yet.
  8. Please report back when you've tried them. Especially on how spicy hot they are. Good lunch fodder for me if they aren't too spicy for me.
  9. I was not familiar with them and checked out the website yesterday. Yum! Thanks for the tip.
  10. I might be tempted to try the confit with a good dollop of Little Green Dress instead of the Kalamatas.
  11. I'm not sure they appreciate it, but I often give food and related gifts to my sister and her husband. We are all at the age where there is really nothing we need. I just ordered a few things for my milkman to bring--a couple will be taken for them when we go there for Thanksgiving. Cocoavino Whiskey cake - was not sold out when I ordered, so I have my fingers crossed that I will receive it. If not, plan B is to pick up a Jude's Rum Cake And I keep planning to get some vanilla made--I have the beans. Won't be ready for use by Xmas, but it is the thought that counts. And some spicy-sweet nuts in a cute jar is my standard for quick last-minute gifts, hostess gifts and neighbors.
  12. I'm torn as well. I've been a subscriber from the beginning, but we just can't keep up anymore, even cutting back to the Lite plan. I don't cook as much and we don't eat as much as we used to. Having a hard time letting go. I keep asking myself if looking at all these beans sitting in the pantry is bringing me joy. Ummmm...
  13. I made this panade one year in addition to traditional stuffing. It was a hit and was requested for a couple of years after that. I have not made it for the past couple of years, so may need to revive it this year.
  14. Thanks for starting this discussion. My sis is hosting this year, but since she is working/traveling, asked if I'd work on a menu and suggestions of things I will bring. Trying hard to get my head wrapped around it, but difficult when we are still having occasional 70+ degree weather. Not that I'm complaining, mind you.
  15. My name is Deb and I'm a jar/bottle addict. Like @Katie Meadow, I save all sorts and use them for storage and leftovers. The ones that might go into the recycle get used for sending leftovers home with family/friends. I am trying hard to get rid of plastics in this house, but the spouse has a life-long addiction to plastic containers. I have to get up at night and toss all the cottage cheese & sour cream containers he has saved. 🙃
  16. My Samsung oven has this option, but I haven't used it. I keep thinking it is going to make a big mess in my new-ish oven. It does need to be cleaned, so maybe I'll try it before I clean it.
  17. Yes, I remember Mom opening the cans of Folgers with one of these keys.
  18. My Samsung range is conventional, convection and has an air fryer option, too. I have never used the air fry option, but I use the convection 80% of the time. I also have a separate air fryer that I have used once or twice. I just haven't really made friends with it. Rather like the Instant Pot that it sits next to in the cupboard.
  19. And my store never did get them this year. Boo!!!
  20. I am drooling over that brisket!
  21. You are fortunate to have a library that accepts donations to use. Our area chain of libraries is remodeling one to include a large area devoted to food and cooking. As I am downsizing my cookbook collection, I contacted them and asked if they would like some of my collectible cookbooks to use in their classes/lectures, decorate with/display, etc. They said no. They said they will accept them, but will sell them on eBay in order to get the money. Made me really sad.
  22. @BetD, as a cookbook collector, that is my very favorite sort of book to find! I love books that have personal notes and recipes added. What a treasure to have that passed on to you.
  23. I love both the lemon & almond and the sea salt caramel versions (have not tried the berry) and have gotten them when available for a couple of years. My sister called me a week or so ago to tell me they had them. I was so excited and went right out to snatch up a few boxes. None at my store. And still none when I went again yesterday. Boo! I always stock up. Guess I'll have to console myself with another box of the St. Michel cookies at Costco. They still had them last week when I went.
  24. Thank you! I see some keepers there!
  25. I've seen several friends making the confit recipe. I really need to try this! Looks wonderful!
