[QUOTE=Sahirrnee;16983094 You take a small cube of mozzerella, wrap it in a piece of crescent roll dough. Wrap that with bacon and skewer with a tooth pick and deep fry.[/QUOTE]
That reminded me to take my BP medicine.
Thank you! 
There are no heaters at irk and due to energy conservation measures they are not allowed but I will sneak one in anyway rather than be cold. We do have heat at home thank Og.
I am trying to find a recipe for a bundt cake using cake flour as our holiday company left most of a box here. Anyone know the difference between regular flour and cake flour?
I am going under the knife in a couple of weeks to have a hysteroscopy to remove a polyp from the uterus. I am about ready to have the whole damn thing removed. Doc says 90% chance it’s benign but I am still skeered of any surgery. I don’t like the anesthesia.
Back to reading. I have been doing a lot of reading, usually at least two books in a weekend.
I hope everyone has a great weekend.
We got a couple of $100 bills at work that reeked of weed. Guess business is good in da Hood.
20 degrees out
Good luck on the snipping, Butter1
swampy, I’ve sworn off the volunteer leadership thing. If I can’t sack 'em, I don’t wanna command 'em.
BBBobbio, good luck on the scoping Would lotion help a chapped rectum?*
*Rectum? Damn near killed 'em! I slay me.
I’m trying to remember my Alton Brown here, but I think cake flour is finer than regular flour. I do remember Mr. Brown saying that using a cake mix is perfectly okay as those mixes contain real cake flour and thus are better than using Ye Olde All-Purpose Flour.
Eesh… Rain stops work again. The other football ground I work at has also decided the pitch is too wet to play, which I found out after gettin’ up early (read- at a sensible time) and getting halfway into uniform.
Again, I ain’t too sorry to not be there- my skin’s so bad still I’m having to moisturise about every hour, and I can’t really keep on top of it at work- plus I’m still not sleeping properly. I’m not missing much money today either, but I really need this to get sorted soon or I shall become poor. Well, poorer.
Happy Saturday!
It’s a damn cold cloudy 7 degrees outside. It’s supposed to get up to 30, and then tomorrow is in the 40s. Monday is in the 40s and then Toosday drops back down to the teens.
I’m going back to bed Maybe I’ll be less grumpy today than I was yesterday.
You’re welcome. 
I have to set the timer on my phone to remind me.
I was telling my friend about the recipe and she said that once you reach a certain age you shouldn’t try new foods that aren’t good for you. You know you are going to love them and why add to the list of foods you are going to crave but can’t have?
Good luck Butter
i hope you fee better** Nuts**
**sari **- you’ve beat us - we’ve got 9° right outside my garage door. The weather gadget on my computer says it’s 14°, but it lies - I know it lies!! 
Stoopit dog was up at 4, so I let her out to pee, then we all went back to bed. I had Higgs on my hip and Taz curled in the blanket well between my knees, so I was pretty much trapped. Just before 7, I made everybody get up. I’ve got a load in the washer, the water for the aquarium is warming up so’s I can add the salt, and I’ve got poke in the crock pot that will be pulled and sauced later today. And somewhere along the line, I’ve got to assemble the veggies for tomorrow and find an appropriate serving tray. Maybe I’ll run by the dollar store and see if they’ve got a throw-away that will work.
And for the record, I don’t like cold. I don’t like the sheet of ice on my driveway. I don’t like that it takes both the furnace and the pellet stove to keep it at 67° in the house. Yeah, the furnace will take it higher, but do you know what fuel oil costs??? I’ll put on an extra sweater.
Happy Saturday anyway. Warm thoughts!
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 28 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 56 for the day. Not nearly as bad as what a hyuuuuge whack of the country is gettin’ weather wise, so I’ll take it.
Butters hope the surgery stuff goes well! Also, cake flour is essentially a very fine flour used for bakin’. I think you still need to sift it and add bakin’ powder, bakin’ soda, salt and whatnot. Then again, I use cake mix so what do I know.
flytrap I have a feelin’ that goes against church Canon. Whiskypalians can be real sticks in the mud about things.
MOOOOOOM I have several plastic trays that look like silver trays meanin’ that they have that patterned silver look. I got ‘em for real cheap at a dollar sto’ and they’re reusable and look presentable.
Ok, I gotta figure out this appetizer thingy for tonight. I do need to go to the sto’ so I am leanin’ towards sto’ boughten. I shall redeem myself with the nice, homemade pasta sallit I’m takin’ to brunch tomorrow.
Now I need more caffiene and some brekkie for rumbly tummy. I should also purtify and go on to the sto’ just to get it out of the way I suppose. Woe is me!
Happy Sattidy Y’all!
So why does wrapped up cheese remind you to take your medicine? Does Mrs. Plant wrap your pill in something tasty, hold your [del]snout[/del] mouth open & shove it in the back of your throat? 
Looks like I’m the, ummm, “winner” as I only need one finger to display the temperature. :eek:
Let me say right here and now that I HATE the word boughten!!! Depending upon where you look, it is apparently an acceptable word, mostly shown as archaic, but it still makes me cringe. My MIL uses it all the time and it takes everything I have not to scream “The word is BOUGHT!!!”
I’m sorry. I might want to think about cutting out the caffeine. <deep cleansing breaths>
We probably shouldn’t go into that here. 
She told me that I did not have to sift cake flour for my fruitcake, so three of us agree.
If three MMPers agree, it must be wrong.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard the word “boughten.” Maybe it’s a regional thing.
**Midget **- according to a couple of the dictionary sites, it’s a northern US thing. My MIL is from Indiana - I don’t know if that counts as northern or not.
I’ve used the term myself as a joke in the past, but now I won’t use it at all, for fear I’ll start using it for real.
This brings to mind a classmate eons ago when I was attending a rather hoity-toity all-women’s college (which has since gone coed) - she insisted it was correct to refer to “freshly squozen orange juice” - I wonder what became of her?
By golly, Mr. Webstersays it is a word, though “chiefly dialect.”
I am surprised.
Decent explanation for flours here: Flour - Joyofbaking.com
It tells you how to substitute all-purpose for cake flour, but not the other way around. I would think you could find a regular cake recipe with cake flour and just make it in a bundt pan.
Coughing up a storm here. 6 of the 15 of us have had the creeping crud so far, so we sound like a walking hospital. Rah.
Home today. It’s supposed to be super-cold here today and tomorrow (was already plenty cold yesterday), so Id just as soon get the heck out of Dodge. We’re trying to leave by 10, but brother needs a new headlight before we go and also need to take back the rental minivan.
Are we there yet?
Hugs all.

Ha!
I keep tellin’ folks that Yankees can’t talk right!
Here in Canada, I’ve heard the word “yankees” or “yanks” to refer to all Americans, not just those of a particular region.
Up and caffeinated. It’s a balmy 20 degrees Fahrenheit outside.
Midget, if you’re from above the Mason-Dixon line, you’re a Yankee. If you move from the North to the South and stay, you’re a “Damn Yankee”
FCM, I’ve never heard “boughten” And Firefox agrees with me.
Why, I autta . . . !!! :mad:
It is more properly used to refer to those unfortunate enough to live North of the Mason-Dixon line.
Should you ever be in the Southern United States, you may want to avoid that expression.
