i find it fascinating that when someone disagrees with your opinion, and
thats all it is, that you immediately resort to vulgarity as in your
response to me, or personal attacks as in this response to judy, in case you
hadn't noticed, this group is to voice opinions and discus specific problems
about specific cooking situations, i am sorry this is stressing you to the
point of attack, for someone so sure of your opinions it might be nice if
you at least restrained yourself from vulgarity and personal attacks as you
know neither one of us or what our lives are about... and if you respond
that you have read enough to make inferences... i could then do so but mine
about you would be almost as rude as what you have just posted and you/your
opinions aren't worth lowering myself to that level,

All this experience and blue ribbons and you don't know why your
cookies crumble?? Tsk, tsk. Sounds like a lot of smoke and mirrors
to me.
