There is also a rotel dip: Ground beef, cheese whiz/cheese sauce, rotel tomatoes that is cooked up and served over nacho/dorito chips. Is that what you are referring to?

Rotel
Combination of diced tomatoes and chilli peppers. Some people use it in everything they cook. Frankly, I can live without it.
Rotel
I think what you might be talking about is a product that's canned tomatoes with chili peppers. I've lived all over the Midwest and have always been able to find it in the canned tomato aisle.
rotel
that's the product that is mixed with velveta, usually around christmas and new years's, in a slow cooker for a really great dip, but it can get hot to someone not used to eating more spicy foods. The can is more the size of a can of soup than regular vegetable cans.
What pray tell is Rotel ?? nm

many many rotel recipes
go to the below link and enjoy. Ro-tel is a wonderful addition to almost any recipe.
http://www.texmex.net/Rotel/main.htm
Also for an added idea take a brick of softened cream cheese and pour some mexican Ro-tel on and serve with chips. Also add some cooked ground sausage to the Velveeta with Ro-tel.
Rotal adn Velveeta are staples in my home and I live in WA and I can buy it at any major grocery store.
HAVE A GREAT HOLIDAY!!!!
Is Rotel a Southern Thing?
I just heard of it today, for the first time. Is it like cheese whiz?
tomatoes
I planted tomatoes in my regular garden and then decided to try an earthbox for planting a cherry tomato plant. WELL, this thing grew up at least 8 feet and was growing onto my roof. I finally put in some hooks on the overhang of my house and these things just keep growing and growing. I must have already picked at least 300 of these tomatoes and there are still more there. Now this is strange but my dog also seemed to like them and has nibbled off the ones that were on the lower branches. Also planted some peppers in this earthbox and it is doing extremely well.

Sorry about my not spelling tomatoes correctly. I graduated from the Dan Quayle school of spelling. 
I saw a recipe for oven dried tomatoes that sounds good with olive oil, sea salt and garlic. Yum.
Tomatoes gone wild
I have planted 4 tomato plants that have gone crazy. They are crowding out other things and the cages are barely holding them up. I would like to try to transplant them to another area. Anyone have experience with this with a fully grown tomato plant? They already have some tomatoes and lots of flowers. I am planning on starting this afternoon by pruning back many leaves and stems that are not fruit bearing yet.
or voles --- they ate all our tomatoes one year - sm
they live in the ground, little holes (1 inch or so) and eat everything they can. We put the tomatoes in big pots/barrels now, cover with bird netting, and out of 2 plants have tons of tomatoes.
Canned tomatoes are very versatile
Not bad with cubed tofu, either. Also, what about vegetarian lasagna, eggplant parmesan, vegetable soup. More recipes are here, some vegetarian, but you can always substitute ground turkey or leave out the beef.

Tomatoes are not hard to grow........sm
You can start the plants inside and plant them in large containers on the patio or porch if that is the only space you have. Nothing much better than a big, fresh, juicy ripe garden tomato!!
It is turkey and bacon and tomatoes
between slices of bread with a cheese sauce poured over the top. Different places here use different cheese sauces and they are delicious.
Uncooked whole tomatoes on pizza
We have that here. I actually love it. It's like a bruchetta.
I love tomatoes and may sandwich....sm
I live in South MS. Has to be fresh garden tomaotes though.
Upside down tomatoes, how do they turn out?
I love home grown tomatoes but do not have a garden. I have seen some of the ads for the upside down ones and thought I might could do those. Anyone had any luck with those?
Tomatoes, escargot and calamari.
Ro*Tel -- diced tomatoes & green chilies
Ro-Tel is similar to canned stewed tomatoes. In times past, it was marketed mainly in the southern states, originating in Texas.

my fave too...along with Fried Green Tomatoes
rotten tomatoes - good site
If you Google the movie and find out why people are fascinated with it you will find out a whole slew of information about the meanings strewn throughout the film, it definately added a whole knew way of looking at it for me. The ending was very redemptive and made it all right in the end at least for me. Funny thing is I thought I was renting a children's fantasy movie which I like, so had no idea it was so dark, sort of shocking, also did not know it was subtitled.
Love canned tomatoes!. Here are some ideas.
Put some frozen bean and cheese burritos in cassarole, pour tomatoes (doesnt matter if they are any flavor or not) over them, add cheese on top and bake at 350 til hot and cheese melted and brown. Or mix with chicken broth, chicken, cumin, pepper flakes (optional), other fave spices and make mexican chicken soup. Top with strips of toasted tortillas. Cook shredded chicken in tomatoes with fave mexican spices and serve on tortillas for mexican chicken rolls. Again, doesnt matter if called Italian tomatoes, will work with anything.
shread it up, add some green chiles and diced tomatoes
and freeze for burritos or machaca beef later on...uumm good
I decided to grow tomatoes for my 10 year old who loves them! sm
I planted 2 plants and they grew up so tall - totally pesticide free with no bugs on them all year! We had so many that I would give them to a neighbor. One batch was picked up by a woman who drove 30 miles for our tomatoes! I don't like them.....They were no big deal planting - just put them in the ground and watered every day.
My little pooch also loves fresh tomatoes. I nick them to
s
Hmm, roasted peppers, olives, garlic, tomatoes
Yummy! My husband and I neither one grew up eating the above - we had mostly the bland food and the reason being, there are a lot of people who just do not know how to use spices and seasonings. Glad grown now because I have all those delicious things you speak of. Years ago in Mexico I had roasted green peppers with cheese- tried to match but mine never the same. Mouth is watering!
Meatloaf, baked potatoes, cukes and tomatoes out of the garden. (sm)
Maybe if I get finished with taking the grandkids to their extra-curricular activities early enough I will bake a cake. Been hungry for chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting.
Ohhh how I miss cornfields and fresh garden tomatoes!
They don't grow very well in the desert...but I also don't miss the humidity in the summer and the "bird size" mosquitoes!
LOL
I've used canned tomatoes in tossed salad in the wintertime...
because I can't stand the plastic tomatoes they sell out of season in the store. I also use them in tuna salad, chicken salad, etc. In summer, we grow our own, but for winter the canned ones are great, especially the petite-diced.
Recipe for oven dried tomatoes with olive oil, sea salt and garlic!? Where? Please share! NM

Whole wheat pasta with sauce, put in chunks of chicken instead of beef, and drained canned tomatoes.

Rotten Tomatoes list the 50 best scary movies. Good list.

well....it depends on how you look at it.
I think your Halloween decorations sound great!! Pretty spooky, IMO. It depends on how you look at the situation. Halloween, in reality, is not just a fun holiday. It actually stands for All Hallow's Eve and if you are into pagan religion this is your favorite night of the whole year...it is the Devil's New Year. We have been celebrating this holiday forever, but just for fun and tricks, BUT...at the same time pagans have been celebrating "the new year."
The preacher as well as God's people come with responsibilities and duties to fulfill--a preacher just has a tougher role (leadership)to fill. Not my rule, God's rule.
At the same time, he is not supposed to totally interfere with your life. He should not judge you (10 commandments say "Thou shalt not judge") and if he has said everything you have told here, then he has placed a judgement on you, which he will be held accountable for. Sometimes Christians (regardless if Baptist, etc)can get themselves in major trouble just by the way they word something. In reality, what he should have done was just prayed to God for your family (not saying anything bad about you--just what he or any Christian who feels offended in some way should do)and asked God for His help in dealing with his feelings towards your decorations.
Hope this helps!! Have a great day!!
Depends where she gets them. sm
We were in California, and she bought from some costume firm in Chicago. Usuall ran anywhere from $60 to $90 for costume for each recital.
$54 for six weeks is a decent price. Sorry you can't watch. We were always allowed to stay for the session, and show up at the end and watch. That seems strange to me.
It depends.
I have one on right now but some days the girls breathe
It depends on the kid (SM)
I have 3 girls. They are all so different that they cannot be grouped by behavior based on their gender alone. The oldest has so much 'tude and is quite difficult. The second is a breeze. The third, well, she's 1, so I don't know too much yet, but she seems to be the easiest of them all.

My newphew is on it and has lost almost all his weight. He had tried several things, including So. Beach, but nothing worked. He had gained weight after knee surgery, etc. - needed to get it off because his work is teaching martial arts!
He says the food is good. It is costly, however.
I can't afford it, so I'm just counting calories and keeping a food diary. I just write down the time, the food and the # of calories I eat throughout the day. Putting it on paper keeps me honest and I like trying to keep it at 1200 or less calories a day.
depends on what you are looking for
and how old kids are. Cape Cod, White Mountains/Conway NH, Maine seacoast, Olde Orchard Beach, Boston, Lake Winnepesaukie (sp) in New Hampshire.
That depends... Here is a tip
Contributions can either go to a general fund which goes toward regular expenses, i.e. lights, cleaning, etc. You may also designate that contribution to a special program, i.e. youth department, sound system, etc. All contributions that are designated can not be spent on anything else except for that particular program. As for the cards, that is a personal decision. Generally, a card to the family addressed to the spouse is sufficient. My suggestion would be to mark a date on your calendar a month from now and do a follow up call. See how the family is doing and check for any specific needs. Often times they just need to talk.... so be available.
I not sure but I believe it depends
on the risk level. There is a sex offender living directly behind us. He was a high school coach and had an affair with a student. She was 16 or 17. Her mother found a ton of revealing love letters between them and she gave him warning once if it did not stop, she is going to turn him in. It did not stop so she turned him in. The gal was willing but still he was the adult in the situation and he should not have taken advantage of her. Anyway, I have seen him exercising in the park. I don't think I have seen him at ballgames though.
I think it depends on the kid...sm
I have 3 and of course they all have different personalties. My oldest DS started about the age of 2 and he was a snap. Then my DD came along and she was, and still is, so stubborn and strong-willed. She was probably almost 3 before she was potty trained. Then youngest DS was probably 3 1/2 before he was out of diapers. Never thought I would get through those days, and now they are 20, 17, and 15.
Depends . . . . sm
Is it just you? If so,I'd wait and draw full plus work. If you don't need the $$,go ahead and retire. I'd probably wait anyway because I don't know what I'd do with all that free time!
Depends -- they may not
Insurance laws have changed but when I worked for an insurance company you had to be covered by that insurance company nine months for the birth to be covered. Otherwise everyone would go out and get insurance during their ninth month. But since they have that new law with continuous coverage and if it is a group plan, it might be different. You have to be upfront about it, cannot hide it so might as well call your new insurance and ask them but be sure you get a manager or someone who knows what they are talking about, see something in writing about what is covered on your new plan, etc. It should be in there. But do not be shocked if it is not covered because like I said, they sometimes do require nine months of coverage or else they call it a pre-existing condition. Also lots of times they will not cover the pre-delivery testing either. Again, get some information from your new company so you can decide if you need to COBRA over or not. Good luck, let us know what you find out.
It depends
I think it really depends on who the boys are and how well you know them. When I was a kid, I only had guy friends so there were no real sleepovers with the girls and my guy friends would never have dreamed of doing anything rude or anything to me to be afraid of. I am only 30, so it wasn't that long ago. I think it would depend on the girl and if I knew the boys she hung around with. Obviously, you wouldn't want her to do that with boys she didn't know or couldn't be trusted, but I never had friends like that I was close to. I know a 19-year-old who is the same way and is the daughter of one of my good friends. She has a several best friends who are boys and my friend never had to worry about them sleeping over or camping or going out of town. I wouldn't say no if you know them and you know your daughter. it would be different maybe if she was going camping with her boyfriend or with strangers.... then I might have to think about whether or not that was really okay with me as a mother in your situation.
It depends on the day.
School mornings are crazy so its usually a granola bar, pop tart, piece of fruit or something of the like and then maybe a mid morning bowl of cereal, oatmeal, or cream of wheat.
On weekends my hubs is usually the one up early so he usually makes a traditional-type breakfast with eggs, hashbrowns, bacon, etc. or pancakes, french toast, or waffles.
During the summer I went through a homemade egg mcmuffin sandwich phase. Those were quick and easy but not quick enough for school mornings.
Funny, we had breakfast for dinner last night. Scrambled eggs with cheese, hash browns, toast, bacon, and OJ. It's been a long time since I have done that and I told my hubs this should be a once a week dinner. Its so simple, easy, and healthier than a lot of other stuff. Besides kids love it! :)
Just this morning I was thinking I need some new ideas for quick mornings but i hate buying prepackaged stuff like poptarts.
Depends. How old is he? sm
Will you incur penalties? Can you roll it over into something guaranteed? Depends on your situation.
QVC...depends
Well, the sets I saw are "cheaper", but not the "same" set you find from American Girl directly. I.e. The Molly doll came with a cuople of outfits, a stand, a couple of books, and I think her pet, which not the exact same set. So it is more than just the doll and one book, but less expensive to get all of that stuff it comes with separately. The doll and book alone from american girl is less $$ but does not include the extra outfit, etc. I didn't watch when it was on in Sept., so maybe they have other accessories or furniture on the show too. I am guessing they sell out fast! Also, if you have not done this, check out the American Girl website for the sales and monthly specials. Over the summer, I got a $40 toboggan for $20 - of course you do have the shipping charge but still cheaper. So they do have some good deals there too, just that there may or may not be an item to go with the doll you have or are looking for...
It depends on what you buy.
My in-laws lose power all the time so they invested in a whole house generator that is built in so all they have to do is flip a switch and their power is back on. They run everything and you can't tell any difference. It cost them thousands to do this but they saved to have it done before retirement.
Prior to that they had the generators you buy at the hardware store and it only ran the refridgerator and heat. You could add the lights for a short period of time but they were very dim. Those they had to fill with gas every couple hours and it was a lot of work.
That reminds me to charge up my other computer and cell phones too.
I'm somewhere in PA, depends what
TV news you listen to; i.e., Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (3 stations), Phila., Lancaster, etc.. LOL
I'm closer to the Berks/Lancaster area and nobody ever heard of vinegar on scrapple. I grew up that way. It does give a bit of zing to the scrapple yet doesn't hide the true flavor.
We grew our tomatoes in 5 gallon buckets this year. They did really good. You could do it too. We experiment every year with 1 or 2 plants to try to get fresh tomatoes through the winter. Did it 1 year a long time ago, but failed to write down what we did, so we've been testing and testing..
Depends on their age and I think I would
let them ask. My ex told my daughter about some stuff that she didn't ask about, which I really did not appreciate. If they ask I wouldn't lie, but I would not volunteer anything.
I think a lot depends on what
others did for you. Did they call and offer their condolences? Did they see you in person and express their sympathy. In this cyber age, cards seem to be a thing of the past.
My neighbor (friend and hair stylist) recently lost her father-in-law very suddenly. I have been friends with their family for years, including the widow. I didn't realize it until just now, but I never sent either of them a sympathy card. I did, however, make 2 trays of stuffed shells and pumpkin pie (it was in the fall) for both families. The items were very much appreciated.
I would try not to take it personally, especially if some of these people acknowledged your loss personally. As far as not giving cards, that's up to you, but I do what I do because it makes me feel good -- not because I expect something in return. I certainly don't mean that to sound harsh or offensive, it's just how I feel.
I'm very sorry for the loss of your mother. I can't imagine how painful that must be. I'm sure she loved you very much!
Well now...that depends
MC and Visa can still be accepted if you refuse to show id and the card is signed. Of course, if you haven't signed the back, it could probably be refused as tender because of the disclaimer "not valid unless signed" on the back of your card.
Other cards, other rules.
In several states you can be asked for id, but it is illegal to write any of the info on the receipt or make a copy. That is a big no-no. There are, of course, exceptions if you are using the cc for things like security deposit and so on.
As a note, my nationwide company does not require us to check id if the card is signed and the signatures match. If it is unsigned, we are supposed to ask for id--going back to the "valid card" issue.
Also, if you are really that upset about having to show id I would suggest using cash. It's awfully difficult to commit id fraud with that :)
