'wet nuts' are walnuts in maple syrup
nm
16 year-old made me breakfast!
It's a snow day today, and all three of my teenage sons are home from school. I'm sure my line counts will be low. It's not like they need to interrupt me with "Can I have juice?" or "Play with me," but, they do cause interruptions.
However, I have to say that at least I got one break so far today. The 16-year-old made me pancakes and sausage for breakfast, and he made the pancakes from scratch! He whipped the egg whites, folded them in, etc. What a catch he's going to be some day! (And he's learning to do transcription in the hopes of being able to work from a dorm room one day.)
Yum!
pancakes...beach or mountains?

The ingredient in cough syrup? What's it gonna do
s
I use Pumpkin Spice Torani syrup also purchased at (sm)
Cash N Carry - I have a pump on the bottle and put a couple of squirts in - I only like light flavored pumpkin - but you could adjust depending on your preference. I put it in the milk before heating otherwise it cools it down too quickly. Great - now you are making me crave one too!! :)
How bout Drs. Cox and Grant? Sounds like a cough syrup.

My family made home-made mozzarella,
and it was very good. I was pretty small at the time, so I don't remember the exact process, just that it was done pretty quickly, and a lot of milk was used.
I don't know if you'll save a lot of money making your own cheese. The cost of milk is very high, too, and you need a lot of milk to make cheese.
re: lunch while typing
Just FYI....NEVER try to eat ramen noodles while you are typing!!! Not a pretty site...LOLOLOL...just a thought to lighten the load!!! hehehehe
typing stand
Does anyone have any idea where you can find a typing stand like the ones we used for typing class? I'd like one with a ruler or something attached to keep my place on the document. I'm having a really hard time locating this item. Any clues? Thanks!
as i am typing, i bet it is getting deleted
I cant believe it has been on here this long! I am quite sure that it is going to go fast. By the way, look up the EU, European Union. Go to Google and Images and check out the building. In front of it is a statue of a woman riding a beast. Also, their seats for the congress/senate or whatever they are called are numbered, going up to 800 or something. all filled up with the persons name, except number 666 is empty.
I have had a drink while typing but ....sm
usually just one and I don't get drunk.
typing speed
Go to Google and type in typing speed. There are a bunch of things under google. You can take typing tests to see how many words per minute you are typing.

Please excuse the typing errors...
All I have heard today is "The patient had a giberishgiberish condition that includded gibberish, cough, hack, sneeze gibberish." You get the point.
what happens when you stay in typing mode
Had to share. Friend of mine has two sisters 1 with a 2y/o and a 5 mon. old and the other with a 1 y/o. First one thought she was pregnant again. Second is just a snooty lil'heifer. Anyway she was IMing me about an hour ago. We were talking about her new job and right out of the blue said..."brb phone". Then came back with "my flu infested sister calling to see what I got for VD".
I had a fit and said. "Serious VD? OMG your mom will die. Why drive 80 miles for some medicine, why not go to the doctor...I cannot believe she of all peope has revealed that information."
She cracked up and came back with
"No stupid...Valentines Day!"
Priceless... I would have never gotten Valentines Day from VD...Maybe VD on Valentines Day! Sometimes you've just got to give it a rest! Must get more sleep!
I also watch while typing or at least try to eat lunch then
I read that the audience will slowly find out who all is in the accident. Like yesterday just about Nick, Sharon, and Jack. I know Cane, Katherine, Lauren, Paul, and the lady cop (can't remember her name). also Victoria (we already know this), JT, and I suppose Adrain. What about Amber? Not sure about her. I think I saw her with blood on her in a preview.
Need a little YouTube break from typing? - sm
Then take a mini-tour of San Francisco, the way we skaters like to enjoy it!

I have bifocals for reading & typing, and although - sm
I'm perfectly fine driving without glasses, I have some driving glasses, which just makes it a little easier to read street signs from distance. It's to correct astigmatism. I could also have gotten trifocals, but someone I knew with them said he had them and never could get used to them. I also chose the bifocals with the line, rather than the lineless ones. There was supposedly a good reason, although I don't remember why!
Happy Birthday...keep on typing
I'm 72 and still typing..:-)
No kidding. I'm not typing my fingers
to the bone for a week or two straight just to buy a freakin' purse! Maybe if I was a CEO or something, but not on my MT pay. Or maybe if I was an MTSO, LOL...
Can't afford to be hooked to anything, except typing right now!!!

What did you have for breakfast?
This morning my 2 boyz came in off of third shift together @ 7 am(rare occasion) and wanted to know if I would consider helping them with breakfast. They made their suggesttion and I told them to go the the super WalMart and get the ingredients....Well, they're both young working men and can pick up the tab!
Shrimp gumbo (from scratch), crab cakes (frozen) and an extra bag of what appeared to be tiger shrimp on steroids! Yummy!
Just to see them yuckin' it up, pokin' each other, playin' in the kitchen really did my heart good.
Mind you, last night's dinner was boiled chicken backs, pinto beans with jowl meat, turnip greens and hot water cornbread ....So, don't be impressed by this morning's fare....It's very rare.  Enjoy every moment you can with your kids  Cat
Breakfast
How about Belgian waffels with whip cream and fruit topping and an omlet bar? Nothing fancy, just some different veggies and meats with cheese. Set up a couple of pans and let the kids chose what they want. You can really prep all this in the evening and be ready for them when they return. Get paper plates and cups and have a great time. My son went to his prom and a few others over the years so we have done a couple of different things. If you have not been to one yet and are picking up the limo at another kid's house, ask what the situation will be. I went to drop off and take some pics one time and when I got there all of the adults were wearing formal wear and having a party. I, of course, had not even taken a shower that day. Apparently I was sent an e-mail about the event, but it went into my junk mail. I felt like a real rube, but it was still a fun event.
I don't eat breakfast - never have been able to
Ever since I was in grammar school I have never been able to eat breakfast. My parents always made me eat and I'd get sick. Now I get up at 8am, DH doesn't get up til 11AM (on different work schedules), so I don't eat anything. Around 11AM we have our "breakfast" - coffee and whatever it doesn't take me any time to make. I do like life cereal a lot, and sometimes we'll have a bagel or toast. Other times I take some frozen strawberries and blueberries and throw them in the blender with some water and we have a fruit drink. My sister tells me I'm boring and bland. HA HA
What do you eat for breakfast?
Do you change it up, or always eat the same thing?
Myself, for years and years and years... I eat a bowl of cheerios! Sometimes I run out and have to have a bagel with peanut butter or something.
But I still love cheerios after all this time :)
Maybe after a night out and not waking up until 11 or so, we will go eat a big restaurant breakfast of omelets/toast/hash browns, but that's like once a month.
Just curious cause I'm getting hungry and was wondering what everyone else does
Have a great Friday!!!!
Is this the breakfast one?
With eggs and sausage? My mom and sister make that one all the time for morning things. Kids especially love it.
No not the breakfast one. It is
1 bag of thawed hashbrowns (I use the cubed, my kids don't like the shredded hashbrowns)
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 stick butter
salt and pepper
2 cups shredded cheese (I use sharp cheddar).
Crushed corn flakes
Melt butter, reserve about 1/4 cup. Mix everything together except corn flakes and reserved butter.
Spread crushed corn flakes over top, pour remaining butter over and back at 350 for 1 hour.
It is a great side dish, goes with anything.
Studies show typing doesn't cause it, but
the mouse isn't great for us. But you can protect your median nerve by using typing gloves like SoftFlex, which have little pads that protect the nerve when you rest the heel of your hands.
I'm concerned that you were typing & weren't watching your 6 yr old.
I got to get back to typing her but need special prayers
my DIL and grandson are in flight from Hawaii to LAX to be with her mother, his grandmother in the last few days of her life. Her name is Pat. She lives in Placentia. She is in the hospital right now but wants to come home when they get here. My son also in HI, scheduled to leave within 10-12 days to Iraq but he is having some medical issues. Please pray they will not be of a serious nature. Please pray, he is thinking his men will think he is faking this. It is just all the stress he is under....Thank you in advance
Hopefully you use an expander, and aren't typing it all from scratch? NM

grammar mistake above, typing while angry again!
Gotta learn to count to 10.
sorry, meant "PugmoM" - too early to be typing!

Maybe look for a bed and breakfast place in that...
area. Chamber of Commerce might be able to help you.
try eating something for breakfast - even if just
toast - to get your metabolism going. Eat a bigger meal at lunch and a smaller meal at dinner. Do you find yourself eating more less-healthy foods than before? If you get hungry, drink 8 ounces of water before you eat to help fill you up. Eating more in the evening means you aren't getting a chance to work off those calories. Good luck.
Oh, forgot about breakfast here
I had some yogart and some fruit. I just do not know about these foods this person is talking about.
Mmmm...breakfast!
Bacon, eggs, hash browns, toast, orange juice, and coffee.
That reminds me--the treadmill is beckoning. ;-)
Christmas Breakfast
I make a big breakfast casserole (sausage/eggs/bread/cheese) and put it in the fridge the night before. I then pop it in the oven while the kids are opening gifts in the morning and we have that with some fruit or anything else we want...it's Christmas!

Maybe she is not eating breakfast before
going to church, but I don't understand why the teacher allows it to go on. Everyone should have at least 1 donut. I would talk to the teacher.
Breakfast Casserole
Does anyone have any good breakfast casserole recipes? We are having a potluck breakfast at church on Sunday and I'm looking for ideas. Thanks!

I have a standing breakfast date...
every Thursday morning with 3 friends. Weekends are mostly family time. My oldest son always comes home from school on Friday night, so we Netflix. This weekend, we were supposed to play paintball, but it doesn't look like the weather is going to cooperate.
Can someone tell me how to cook it? Breakfast food, right?

What do you fix for Christmas morning breakfast?
Looking for ideas. Thanks!
I always make breakfast strata
Saute onion, chopped ham, asparagus and red peppers. Layer with cheap white bread and monteray jack cheese. Beat 1 dozen eggs with 1 quart half and half wiht salt and pepper. Pour 1 cup of egg mixture over the first layer of ingredients, then add your second layer and pour the rest of the egg mixture. Cover with saran wrap and put some cans on top and let it sit for a while so the bread can soak up all of the egg. Bake on 350 for about an hour or until the egg puffs up and browns on top. This is so delicious. You can't even tell that there is bread in there when you eat it. The trick is to use the cheap white bread. I think if you used a heartier bread, it may not turn out. My family loves this and it is something you can make the night before.
Breakfast casserole sides.
1. Biscuits with assorted jams and preserves, perhaps a sausage gravy boat.
2. Baked cheese grits or fried grits.
3. Cinnamon rolls/assorted pastries.
4. Blueberry or orange-cranberry muffins.
5. Hash browns or potatoes O'Brien.
6. Sausage patties.
Here's my favorite breakfast casserole
No bread, croutons or crescent rolls --
1 lb of ground sausage with peppers and onions
1 bag of shredded hashbrowns (get the ones with peppers/onions and save yourself some work)
8 eggs beat with 1/4 c of milk, salt & pepper to taste
Layer hashbrowns first. Pour egg mixture over.
Combine 3/4 can of cream of mushroom or chicken soup, 1/4 c of milk, and 4 ounces of sour cream.
Add browned sausage to the above soup mixture and 1/2 c shredded cheese. Layer over eggs & hashbrowns.
Refrigerate overnight. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Take out and add 1/4 c of shredded cheese and return to oven for an additional 15 minutes.
It's not as complicated as it sounds. My husband and I can whip this up in about 20 minutes. It's better the second day when we just reheat it because it sets up better. You can serve it with salsa if you like. We got this off of allrecipes.com and just tweaked it to our personal likes.
