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.

You really must be a very sarcastic person, as I only found the cooking
group just this week, and have noticed most of your posts are of a
"snippy" nature. Do you ever offer advice without putting the person
down in negative manner? Just asking! <shrug>

FYI winning blue ribbons has nothing to do with asking for a T&T
chocolate chip cookie that is chewy in texture, instead of hard and
crisp, or light and fragile. I never said my cookies crumbled. I won a
blue ribbon on my filled mincemeat cookies and also my fresh orange
frosted cookies. I have been baking cookies since I was in grade school
with great results, but for some reason the last few times I made CC
Cookies I was disappointed because they didn't seem to be the exact
texture I wanted them to be, but I know that many products have changed
their ingredients too, as Crisco is a lot "greasier" feeling on my hands
as I remembered it to be, and I've had better results with certain
brands of butter than others also, which makes a big difference in any
type of baking.

Thanks, Cheri.....for a minute I almost forgot what group I was in and
thought I was in the A. I. group! =:-}

I was tickled to find this group, as cooking 'n' baking have always been
my most favorite pastime, and enjoy talking to other happy cookers!

Both of you will have to deal with it.

only until your postings become un entertaining, when you quit being funny
there is no requirement to reading your posts, you contrary to your opinion
of yourself are such a small part of the group that reading you or not
changes the value of reading here only a small bit, and since i don't read
here to laugh at people, you are of no value, except that right now i am
extremely bored, Lee

Ha, ha, ha...as if. You sound a lot like the *web tv'er* that came from the
web tv group and started ragging on Judy in the AI group last season.

Yes, and I always enjoy your recipes. Maybe a sock or two here? ;-)

OMG, do you think "Ryan" likes cooking and is here posting also?! LOL

Judy

this is an excellent group, and there are a LOT of nice people here, you
will eventually over time, as you have already noticed with some posters,
find a pattern of posting, this is a very valuable tool due to th e volume
of postings, simply use the kf button when someone gets to annoying/vulgar
or disgusting, keeps the experience cleaner and more on topic,

although i must admit in the interest of full disclosure, there a few i
don't block because they are simply to silly and entertaining to block.. Lee

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,

Storrmee's posts don't correctly show attributions, and it wasn't her
that posted what you quoted. I understand the mistake though. I often
slip right past Lee's top posted message, and while I like reading her,
it's too much trouble to scroll back up most of the time.

thanks for writing what i write, Lee

It would help if her news reader quoted correctly.
