Here in western Washington we're just around the corner from Fall. This 3-day weekend we will have a high temperature in the low 60ies, rain and it will be somewhat windy. This time of year I always stock up on things so that if the weather turns bad, I don't have to go out in it unless I want to. So far I have stored cans of tomato sauce, cream of mushroom soup, tomato soup, boxes of dry onion soup mix, bags of spaghetti, bags of other pasta, a big box of rice, several cans of chicken...

I did a search and there's been some discussion on vanilla extract(real, fake, toxic, labeling gimmicks, etc.). I'd like to know of some brands available in the US that are good. I've heard that the best come from Mexico and Madagascar. Some feel the only way to know what you're getting is to simply make your own(with good vodka & vanilla beans?). If that's your recommendation, how do I make sure the vanilla beans are high quality and haven't been through some toxic processing before they...

(photo from photobucket) Off Topic and just for fun and a complete waste of time... which is why it's fun ... LOL. I'm starting a word association game with a food theme. Please play along. I hate being the only kid on the playground. A word is posted. The next person copies that word and then posts a word that relates to the first word. For example Pecan - pie All words should be related to FOOD in some way as that is the theme for this game. When we totally exhaust...

We have an over-abundance of cabbages that we have grown in our garden--they are being kept in a good cool place and are keeping really well--but there are so many! I would appreciate lots of cabbage recipes--I need to use all of these up and I can't freeze them or can them! I have already made so much coleslaw and sweet and sour cabbage and cabbage soup and stuff like that--Does anyone have any real good recipes that would use alot of cabbage? We have both--the purple and the regular...

Hello. I am looking for a recipe from our local Mexican Restaurant for my mom.l (81 years old) They call it chili relleno, but it is NOT like those that are on the internet. (They have that one too.) It's basically a mound of ground beef with SOMETHING cooked with it to make it stick together and very flavorful. It's covered with some kind of cheese and has a pepper underneath. Does this sound like anything anyone has ever heard of? If anyone has any ideas how to make this, I'd be...

There is a stunning lack of photos on this board- I love to see photos- of dinner, dessert, cooking projects, kitchens, feasts, potlucks, bbq, gardens- anything food-related! I'm trying to learn to take better photos with my camera. It has a setting just for food. I don't get what that setting does but what the hay- I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I am not

My husbands whole family has been into KEFIR--they all claim lots of health benefits from it--Has anyone here ever used it and did you get any health benefits from using it? Also--I am hearing about how some use the Kefir grain (or curd) in place of cottage cheese or yogurt in recipes--I posted a good link on here ---If anyone knows anything about this please post --I am still in the dark! LOL TIA Link

The mystery is over and a million thanks to all who gave input in one way or another. An acquaintance of ours was "EMPHATIC" that the symbol was Russian. My time was extremely divided in the last 2 days w/ other personal commitments. W/ free time on my hands today I decided to start checking on some of the feedback others here in the ebay community had given. It paid off and that's what counts. My hats off to everyone for their time and consideration. The moral of this story...

I saw a recipe in the latest Rachel Ray Magazine and have the ingredients to make it but I am afraid something is missing from the recipe. It calls for 1 and a half cups sweetened condensed milk and 3 cups of coconut. You mix it together and pat into a glass cake pan. The photo looks like there is something in the middle. What could be missing? I looked online and could find nothing similar.

Hi! I have eight of these pans. They are dated 1972 and measure 4-1/2 inches across and about 2 inches high. What were they used for? Thanks so much for your help!

Hi, I've been trying to figure out if this is an initial, symbol or just what. Others have stated both. One stated a Russian symbol. A friend of the family said it's a moon and ???? Also were trying to figure out what kind of coating it has on it. It's real shiny and glossy as you can see. Near the handle on the bottom it shows an 8 and an....H...I think. My questions what's the symbol, what kind of coating, and 8 H ???? I believe it's cast iron. It's heavy. The coating has got me...

Hey gang, have been away on vacation/holiday. Hope that you all are well ♥ DH just called and told me one of the other Regional VP's is flying in and having dinner at our house friday night. At least he gave me some notice. It better only be the four of us, as people always seem to get added on at the last minute. I was going to start the dinner off with a Lobster Cocktail or a Shrimp Gazpacho shooter recipe that I have been meaning to make. Problem is, I have never made the...
