The last things the cops want to do is to chase the kids and have one get killed running from them. I guess maybe the town isn't aware of the liability issues. He had a case in a city here in Ontario a number of years ago that sent insurance raises soaring. The city owned a piece of property that was clearly signed no motorized vehicles and had huge rocks blocking the entrance wide enough to keep out cars and most 4 wheel vehicles, but dirt bikes could still get through. Two young kids disobeyed the signs, manoeuvred their way around the rock barriers and were riding their dirt bikes on the city owned property and ended up running into each other head on. It was not the parents who bought the kids the bikes, gave them gas to use them and allowed them to use them unsupervised on city property who were held liable. The sued the city for $5 million and won. Our town has a similar problem with skateboarders. It is bad enough that the sound alone is annoying, and that they don't care about the safety of pedestrians, but they do the stupidest things on them and end up getting hurt, and the town could end up getting sued. |

I used the extra-thick "Shady Maple Farms" "Clearly Maple" syrup on it. It is without a doubt the best maple syrup I've ever eaten. Some poster on this group to whom I'm forever greatful mentioned this syrup. When we were eating it this morning, I mentioned that it made all other maple syrups taste of turpentine or petroleum (a bit of hyperbole, but there was a tinge of truth there). It doesn't have any raspy strong taste. http://tinyurl.com/2ffd4o But reading your posting above, I was thinking that, hey, that lingonberry stuff might have been OK, too on that toast. While we were talking about that, I mentioned to DH that you, Wayne, had presented the picture of a crepe maker, that I just received a couple of days ago, and that in a few weeks to get prepared as we would be making a 'batch' of crepes. We remenisced (sp?) about having them in the early 70's at Ghiradelli Square in San Francisco where they were in fashion at the time and there were always lines at the 2 or 3 crepe restaurants. I use that lingonberry stuff on vanilla ice cream -- not bad either. But I need to replenish my supply this month. Actually I don't eat a lot of it, I just want it there when I want it there.

We spent a few hours in the Amsterdam airport two years ago and came home with many packages of them. People we shared them with raved about them. I think raspberry-filled linzer cookies are my very favorite. Or maybe Petit Ecolier? Swedish gingersnaps in the red tin? Greek kourabiedes? Those fried rosettes from the wedding showers of my youth? Anna brand orange gingersnaps? Perfect chocolate chip-with-pecans? Shortbread petticoat tails? (Sigh) So many cookies, so little time.... gloria p |

This is the picture of the jar that I use - picture a little blurry - sorry http://i4.tinypic.com/2uts3no.jpg Maybe you can see that there are puddles where it is trying to melt http://i8.tinypic.com/6bk4ug3.jpg Here it is in a spoon. It would run off the spoon if turned. http://i5.tinypic.com/4q87edd.jpg Anyway, this is the coconut oil that I use and have been using for several years. DH loves it. He will have it on toast. I use it for frying any asian-type dish. Dee Dee |

Idunno. Like I said before... the stuff I used was white, hard AND labeled as coconut oil. A Danish friend turned me on to it. I used the jar and never replenished it because it wasn't in style to use at the time nor has it been since then. Here's a good one for you! I found a site tonight that stated “Coconut oil can be blended with diesel fuel, and under certain conditions totally replace it." -- See return address to reply by email remove the smiley face first |

Here's a Dutch recipe (my translation) to make your own! waffels: 200 gm butter 75 gm light brown sugar 250 gm flour pinch salt 12 1/2 gm yeast 3-4 tbs milk 1 egg Melt the butter. Knead together the flour,sugar, salt, the egg and the butter together to make a smooth dough. Dissolve the yeast in a little milk and let it stand a few minutes. Knead the yeast with the dough and let it rise for about an hour. Make small marble-sized balls and cook in a waffle iron [needs to be a flat iron such as used to make pizelles] until golden brown. Let cool Syrup: 150 g syrup [cane syrup-might work with corn syrup] 100 g dark brown sugar 150 g butter pinch cinnamon Melt the syrup, sugar and cinnamon in a small pan.When it's hot, beat in the butter in small pieces. Split the waffles, smear some filling between and assemble them again. [I just use two waffles!] |
