How did she do that, Wayne? IOW what is the recipe for that chocolate stuff that stays hard enough not to be "sticky" in your hands. I've seen a few for sale at Starbucks/Borders etc that I've tasted, but they aren't the same. Maybe they are, but they are not in my memory bank. When I am wanting something a little different at night, I will open a box of probably 3-year old graham crackers, put a couple in the microwave and shave off a little chocolate on top of one; that's the closest I get to that memory. I would be forever greatful if you would give me a tip -- (P.S. I don't buy chocolate chips). Dee Dee |

Ikea stores have restaurants and a small food section where they sell a number of Scandinavian specialities. My wife and I were stranded Toronto for a few hours last month after a brake line in the car blew. I was lucky to find a garage at 4 pm on a Friday night that would fix it for me so we could get back home that night. It was going to be a few hours. We walked about a half mile down the road to Ikea, looked around and decided to grab a bite to eat in the cafeteria style restaurant. I had heard that it was pretty cheap. I remembered seeing their advertisements for 75 cent hot dogs. The were selling (10) meatballs with potatoes, salad and a beverage for $3.99. They also had a nice selection of open faced sandwiches. I ended up with an open face smoked salmon with salad. There are free refills on coffee and soft drinks. It is hard to beat. If you are ever feeling hunger and spot an Ikea, check into the nearest Ikea. Just be careful not to start walking through the store because nobody ever follows the arrows to navigate an Ikea store without buying something. |

I have some 'favorite' things from Ikea -- one, is a wooden lazy susan med-large-- $6 - very nice. It's really hard to resist. Ikea in New Haven also has a little store where you can get quick/quick fast/food items -- coffee, or other small foods; they have little round tables to eat at. In that section they have grocery items - that's where they keep the lignonberry jam! You can buy their meatballs in large packages, etc. Dee Dee |

Most cops are just normal decent people doing their jobs who you can joke with but some are in it because they love power. I live in PA. A few weekends ago we were riding our (human powered) bikes in a woodsy area near a lake that is open to the public. Cop pulls up and says "you can't be here because people are riding ATVs (why parents need to buy ATVs for a 12 year old is another matter) on the dam and weakening it. I politely suggested that we weren't riding ATVs and hadn't noticed any postings regarding trespassing. He gave me a dumb look and drove off. |

Fine pet owners who don't leash their dogs, warn skateboarders, etc. Different breed of law enforcement. They drove up to our picnic table and were genuinely curious. Now if I was pulled over on the interstates, I'm strictly yes sir/no sir. My local PDs have known me for years and they have a good sense of humor. We wave as we pass in traffic. It's the out-of-towners that get a second glance. Andy 007 |

We have a red-tail who lives nearby. DH was driving home from the PO and about to turn into our driveway. It flew by his windshield with a mouse in its mouth. Om, no need for snakes in our house!

One local market sells great gingersnaps that are packed in a plain brown bag with simple printing that are the best storebought ones I have found. They have a really strong but pleasant bite.

At around 72º it becomes liquid. However, I wonder if on the farm (poor at that) anyone used coconut oil -- perhaps they got it somewhere. I don't remember a supermarket in our area until 1945. Hmmm --- Dee Dee |

My house is usually in the mid to low 60's. In any case, I've used it to harden chocolate and it works. -- See return address to reply by email remove the smiley face first |

I don't buy too many different types of packaged cookies, Dee. I do like several different brands of gingersnaps. The ones from Ikea are good. There is also a brand (can't remember the name) that is is found in many supermarkets, packaged in a rather plain brown paper bag. > How did she do that, Wayne? IOW what is the recipe for that chocolate > stuff that stays hard enough not to be "sticky" in your hands. I've > seen a few for sale at Starbucks/Borders etc that I've tasted, but they > aren't the same. Maybe they are, but they are not in my memory bank. Alas, I have only had the commercial ones and never tried to make them myself. I suspect that either a hard fat or a bit of parafin is added to the chocolate to make a firmer coating. > When I am wanting something a little different at night, I will open a > box of probably 3-year old graham crackers, put a couple in the > microwave and shave off a little chocolate on top of one; that's the > closest I get to that memory. Actually, that sounds pretty good. > I would be forever greatful if you would give me a tip -- (P.S. I don't > buy chocolate chips). Well, I do buy chocolate chips, but probably wouldn't be inclined to use them for this. Have you ever tried any of the commercially available chocolate covered grahams? There's Nabisco of course, but the best ones I've had are some other brand and not as large as a standard graham cracker. They are probably about 2 inches square. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. -- Wayne Boatwright (to e-mail me direct, replace cox dot net with gmail dot com) __________________________________________________ ____________ It's lonely at the top, but you eat better. |

I can usually find one or the other at World Market, or at one of our local Phoenix up-scale chains, AJ's. I hadn't noticed a change in Carr's the alst time I had them.

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!] |
