It seems so strange to me that when you bring out Spinach Dip, she's like a magnet. There's no picking through it for the best parts or avoiding the spinach. She loves the stuff. Lots of people I know buy it at the deli counter, but I don't like it that way. I like to make it. It's...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Schatz6589/409362In a crockpot I put: 1 shredded head of cabbage 1 can of crushed tomatoes 2 cans of potatoes, sliced 1 can of corn chopped carrots (a bunch) an onion, still in the skin for flavoring, and a few bay leaves.

I start with cleaned corn, and a pot of cold water. Then I put the corn in and bring it to a boil. After it's boiled for a little while (I always forget to time it, but I aim for about ten minutes) I add a little sugar (an eighth of a cup or so) and stir,...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Schatz6589/389701Now I don't want anyone thinking I wrote this one, or even have ever made it. I have only eaten it (delicious) and asked for the recipe to share with you all. It came from www.epicurious.com. Still waiting for the curried potato and chick pea recipe. I'll e-mail her again and see if I can't get...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Schatz6589/140859What you'll need: A piece of pizza dough, also called a doughball, or a package of frozen bread dough, thawed and risen. About half a pound of mozzarella cheese, shredded. Olive oil 4-6 oz. of Feta cheese, which may be omitted if you find it distasteful. Parmesan cheese to sprinkle on. Herbs,...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Schatz6589/139701Okay, this info is a little drastic for those of you hearing this stuff for the first time, but I really feel that there is validity to this, in this sense: Human beings were never intended to eat chemicals.

I have heard some really bad things. Try checking this link to get the info I have, or do a google search on aspartame, and see what you come up with. Please, leave me a comment, so I can write about...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Schatz6589/138520Okay, just so we're all on the same page...this, taken from www.bantransfats.com, should clear up a little of the specifics of it. There are four kinds of fats: monounsaturated fat, polyunsaturated fat, saturated fat, and trans fat.

This way, while you roast a chicken, you mix the batter for your cake, pour it into a pan, start on the frosting, and as soon...
