Sounds like a picky eater there in 'Ol Pookers', I eat squash, yellow crookneck, pumpkin, spaghetti... I've also grown the first two, San Gabriel has very good soil, unlike the lousy excuse out here.

Where I want to move to in a few years is much worse for growing without some work, but the land would be mine if I can get the money to teardown and setup this mobile home on some land, the move I can pay for. But I have to let at least 2 years pass and get a few things done first, including estimates for the aforementioned ideas.

They occasionally serve butternut squash soup at work. I think they get it from Campbell's restaurant division. It's pretty good.

I love spaghetti squash. Expensive, though. Need to try to grow some this year.

It cost extra but is good buttered with salt and pepper.

Oh I love it. I just need to plan the space in my yard because squash likes a lot of room to spread it's tendrils!

That lasagna looks interesting. As for the double down dog, that's just an odd concept to me.


Bleh. I love vegetables, but vegan raw "lasagne" is 100% wrong.

I agree with you Ang. My kids and their friends fight over my Lasagne.

Should there be a 2019 Anni Picnik. I will just need your oven to do the baking.

If popcorn counts as food, I am sure you'll enjoy this.


That's quite an in-depth article. :~) I do love popcorn. I don't have a microwave, so I usually pop it in a hot air popper, but also use the old tried and true oil method.

You don't have a microwave. I don't have a cell phone. I think we must both be charter members of "Ye Olde Fuddy Duddy" society!!! We could have a convention in a phone booth, if only there still were phone booths!!!

Ain't that the truth! Yes.

Speaking of oil popping, a friend of mine grows a corn that has small pink/red kernels, and is the best popcorn I've ever had. ~Sort of a nutty flavor. It has to be popped in oil. I tried it once in the hot-air popper, and the kernels just whirled around forever.

I don't know what it is about popcorn, but every time somebody does that, I can smell it even though the employee breakroom is on a different floor!

Hmm. Maybe if I did that it would overcome the stench of the coffee maker.

To the point I intended to make, I recently bought a canister of Stephen's hot chocolate powder, no sugar added. It is SOOOOOO much better than Swiss Miss. They have standard milk and dark chocolate and a couple other flavors. It's currently on sale at Jewel, so it may also be at other Albertson's chains.

(It's even better with a schlog of Redi-Wip on top.)

...rum, oranges, popcorn - that's a strange diet young lady - but I think I'd could grow to like it





Second thoughts, I like rum, oranges and popcorn so already do like it :-)

I have this right here. The cost for the can of Chocolate Milk substitute is $16.49 for a 5 lb can, UPS shipping is a flat $4.99, so no matter how much stuff is in ones order, the shipping is still $4.99.

I'm just smiling about this "beans on toast" thing that I saw mentioned by Annie over on Grant's thread about cooking. :~)

I love making Cherries Jubilee and other things you get to flambe. I keep chimney matches near my stove because you never know when you might want to ignite your food. Eric always gets nervous when I flambe dishes and he says stuff like, "Did you remember to pay the fire insurance bill?"
