Singing Birthday Cards http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?B=950&U=g876&M=C32 Daily Horoscopes http://www.free-horoscopes.net =========================== Old-Fashioned Potato Salad 1 cup mayonnaise 1 tablespoon cider vinegar 1-1/2 teaspoons salt 2 teaspoons prepared mustard � teaspoon celery seed dash pepper 4 hard-cooked eggs, chopped 4 cups diced cooked potatoes 1-1/2 cups sliced celery 1/2 cup sliced green onions 1/4 cup sliced radishes (optional) 2 tablespoons chopped parsley lettuce leaves Early in Day: In large bowl, stir mayonnaise with next 5 ingredients until mixed; add remaining ingredients except lettuce and mix well. Cover and refrigerate. Serve on lettuce leaves. Makes 6 servings. ============================= This is my TNT recipe for hard boiled eggs: Put eggs in a pot; cover with enough cold water to cover eggs. Bring pot to a slow boil (don't let it begin to boil big bubbles). Turn down heat to low; cover and let simmer for 15 minutes. Immediately remove pot to the sink when the 15 minutes is done and rinse with lots of cold water. My eggs usually peel very well using this method. Lisa =================================== I would like to get a recipe for rice like is served with beans on most plates at the Mexican restaurants. Thanks Dorothy =================================== This is for Libby. When my Italian grandmother made salad (usually every day!) this is how she did it. Place greens, veggies, etc. in large salad bowl. (We especially like romaine + red onion, but you can use anything you like). Pour oil generously over the greens & toss well, so that all leaves are coated. (You can use olive oil, vegetable oil, etc.). Then season with salt, pepper & garlic powder. Toss well, again, making sure seasoning is well distributed. Add more as needed. Last, sprinkle with wine vinegar to taste (some people like a lot of vinegar, some don't--use sparingly, tasting to see if it is to your taste). Lastly, sometimes I sprinkle on a little oregano and/or Parmesan cheese. That's it....it's really easy & you don't need to go mixing up dressing ahead. Just don't mix up more than will be consumed at a sitting, or you'll have wilted lettuce to be thrown away. And, use wine vinegar--cider vinegar has a different taste. Laura L. =================================== This is for David. Try cracking the hard cooked eggs (do not peel yet) and cover them with ice cubes until they are cold. The shell should peel off easily. Sue aka saw64 =================================== This is for Dee in Texas. Hope you like this one. TNT recipe.

I add about 1 teaspoon table salt to the water. Never have a problem. Love your website. Hazel C. from Georgia. =================================== Someone wanted to know how to crack black walnuts. My husband use to put them in a paper bag. Let them dry for a week or so then run over them with your car. Be sure and let them dry out before you run over them. The skins are really tough, and they have to be dry in order to crack them. Betty T =================================== This is what I know about black walnuts: in a nutshell, (tongue in cheek!) they are very delicious....but a lot of work to get them! First, you have to make sure that the outer greenish covering is black & soft. It must be removed....but don't touch it! It STAINS!!!! Use rubber gloves, wear old shoes & stamp on them until they are "n a k e d"! Then allow them to dry. After they are dry use a hammer on a concrete surface to crack them (spread newspaper down first). You'll need a nut pick to remove the meats from the shell. After you do all this, you'll understand why black walnuts are so expensive in the store! But nothing else compares to the taste of them, either, especially for Christmas cookies. If you have any other questions, I can ask my Dad. He is the black walnut pro....LOL Laura L. =================================== Chocolate E'clair Cake 1 pound chocolate graham crackers 2 boxes sugar free, fat free instant chocolate fudge pudding 3 1/2 cups 1 % milk 1 - 8 ounce container low fat frozen whipped topping, thawed 1 container Sweet Rewards Chocolate icing Oil a 10x14 baking pan. (this makes a lot). Put in a layer of graham crackers. Don't crush, just put' em in. Mix milk and pudding mix. Then beat 2 1/2 minutes. Stir in thawed whipped topping. Spread half of this mixture on the graham crackers. Cover with another layer of crackers, and another layer of pudding/creme combination, and a final layer of crackers. Chill for 2 hours. This is important. Then spread icing on top, cover( being careful not to get the wrap in contact with the icing) and refrigerate until tomorrow, or it won't taste right. Substitute vanilla or french vanilla pudding for the chocolate pudding and use regular graham crackers instead of chocolate graham crackers.

I have never made chocolate chip cookies this way and they turned out very good and you have several options for flavor variations.

Stir in chocolate chips. Drop dough by rounded teaspoons two inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on baking sheets 2 to 3 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely. ========================================= This information is for Lori R who was looking for a 8 quart crock pot. Just last week I bought one from either QVC or HSN, I cannot remember which one but if she goes into their web site and I sure she can find it. What I like about it is that it is also a roaster. You remove the crock insert and it becomes the roaster. If she cannot locate it she can write back and I will get the info for her. It was only about $45.00 plus shipping.
