    Death knell for AGW

    Global warming is alive and 'well' as you say. But the deniers continue to pretend it does not exist in order to have something to distract people from the meaningful issues of the day such Bush's war, food shortages, and high gas prices.

    Emergency Food Stores

    I usually stock up on coffee, tea, rice soups (for example, Cuban black bean), rice, tuna, chili beans, fruit juice, pasta and pasta sauces. Usually, about a 4 to 5 week supply of food. My apartment is too small or I would keep a much larger storehouse of goodies as you are now doing...

    This may well be one of the greatest websites in the internet: http://www.freerice.com/ With every correct word you get, free rice will be donated to the poor! I've done it and it's fun, informative, and rewarding!:smile:

    Food Waste

    OK everybody --- you're now out of excuses for wasting food: http://www.leftoverchef.com/ From my past radings, I learned that "po' boy" is considered quite a treat in New Orleans and it started out as a leftover dish. Mulligan stew is another. There just is no excuse for wasting food!

    I rarely waste any food - first, I am a very good cook; second, I have a big appetite!

    Mexican Food at my Doorstep

    In our building we have periodic taco dinners as fund raisers for the tenants' council. Today, we had one of them and the food was great. Strangely, the super hot sauce tasted a bit like ketchup --- that's because I have a huge threshold of pain for hot sauces. Yum, yummy! Can't wait till...

    Who eats out?

    Here's something from Betty Crocker's book that has just now been re-released: For well-baked, browned undercrust, choose pie pans of glass or enamelware. Shiny metal does not bake the undercrust as well because it deflects the heat. NOW I KNOW!:smile:

    Who eats out?

    RSK, Sounds good! My recipe is just about the same except that it features a bit more ginger and no cranberries. For sweetness, I use small guinea bananas which are pan fried and are a superb side dish. Guinea or finger bananas:

    Who eats out?

    ~~ Gopher, what is wrong with your pies? ~~ Perhaps it's the crust - it usually comes out either too soft and mushy or it gets too browned and dried. Well, the pies do come out OK but not to the same level as my casseroles or soups. On a scale of 10, they rate about a 5 at most. :-(

    Who eats out?

    ``My pies are supreme`` OK, that is my one cooking weakness --- my pies are OK but cakes are something I am not too good at making. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Hey RSK, Please share your recipe for Tandoori chicken with us. Thanx!
