Post all of your best recipes here. Here's the one for my moms apple pie.
You will need the following: Mac apples Pilsbury prerolled pie crust.
Put one roll of pie crust in the bottom of your pie pan. Peel and slice up enough apples to make a heeping mound. You can mix in a couple of golden delicious apples if you want to but you don't have to. In a bowl pour in: 3/4 cup of Sugar 2 Tablespoons of Flour 1/8 teaspoon of Nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon of Cinnamon
Pour this mixture into a sifter and sift the apples in the crust.
Put 1 tablespoon of butter on top of all of this directly in the middle. When putting top crust on make sure to seal it totally by pinching the ends. Wet all of crust with a little bit of milk and sprinkle sugar on top. Put three little slits in top crust to let steam out. Bake at 375 for first 10 minutes and then 350 for 50 minutes.

Can this be made without using the creamed corn? Maybe using an extra can of whole kernel corn and adding whole cream?

Basil Tomato Soup
1 large red onion, diced
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1 tablespoon brown sugar
4 cups whole Roma tomatoes, diced
5 cups chicken stock
1 cup picked basil leaves
Salt and black pepper. to taste
In a large saucepan and a little oil, caramelize the onions, ginger and sugar. Add the tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper. Add the stock and simmer on low heat until very soft, at least 20 minutes. Add the basil and puree. Check for seasoning.
Because of the expense instead of roma tomatoes I use a couple of cans of whole tomatoes and just pour off the extra juice.I also use a couple cloves of garlic added with the onions.

I got this recipe from a show my Mom watched just recently  It's by Judith Chote and it's from her new book called "Homemade" It's a creamy fudge too http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6694658/My never-ever-fail chocolate fudge Ingredients -12 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, finely chopped -2 cups toasted walnut, pecan, macadamia, or other nuts, chopped -10 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature -1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract -20 large marshmallows -4 cups sugar -2 five-ounce cans evaporated milk 1. Combine the chocolate pieces, nuts, butter and vanilla in a large heat-proof bowl. Set aside. 2. Place the marshmallows, sugar and evaporated milk in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Stirring constantly, bring to a boil. Continuing to stir, boil for exactly six minutes. 3. Remove from the heat and immediately pour the marshmallow mixture into the chocolate mixture; beat constantly until creamy. Quickly pour into the pre-pared pan or platter, pushing slightly with the back of a wooden spoon to spread fudge evenly. 4. Cool for at least one hour before cutting into pieces. Serve at room temperature.

TGI Friday's Jack Danials Sauce
This is the actual recipe for that most excellent JD sauce that you get at the TGI Friday's resteraunts. I tried it last night and it is SOOO very excellent!
1 teaspoon Onion Powder 1 tablespoon Tabasco Sauce 2 tablespoons Red Wine Vinegar 1/4 cup Jack Daniel's 2 cups brown sugar 1/4 cup water 4 beef bouillon cubes 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
Combine all ingredients in a small sauce pan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Allow to cool and use as a sauce on any grilled meat or fish -- especially salmon!
Word of advice though: Leave out the tabasco sauce. It makes it pretty spicy. Try it without it and if you think you need it then put it in. I will do without it next time.

Once it boils you don't get drunk off it. And from the taste of it I guess you could use other whiskies. JD seems to taste pretty much the same as kentucky whisky. To me anyway.

Yeah, the smaller bottles are usually behind the counter. I got a 375ml bottle for $11. I'm sure they come smaller and cheaper. Hell, it'll probably taste just as good with cheaper whisky.

With those tough steaks my mom usally makes it in to swiss steak and serves mash potatoes with it  Swiss steak is basically cooking the steak in gravy for a while. I have no idea if if you need a recipe for it , but I think she fries the steak first then cooks it in the gravy after frying. Maybe someone will give you the recipe that has it handy. She also sometimes just throws it in the crock pot after finding out its too tough and softens it up that way, after cooking it I mean.

Please let me apologize first. That is so funny. Did you have to call out the fire dept? The only way to cook that cut of beef is in Swiss steak, Or even a stroganoff, if you cook it a long time in a slow cooker, then served over noodles with a nice garlic butter. If you need a recipe let me know. Next time get a better cut. It's worth the extra money.
When you buy meat you could also ask the butcher for some tips on how to prepare it.They normally are more than happy to help you out.

... no ... no fire dept (but maybe I should have ... could have met a hunky fireman ... ). I didn't really kill it. It was just well done. It wasn't that bad. Just a bit tough.

For steaks you may not want to turn it up so high. What I do is I put one cup of water in the pan that I cook the steak in and I pour BBQ sauce all over both sides of the steak as well as any seasonings that I have lying around. Then I cook it until the water boils down leaving a nice BBQ sauce gravy that you can pour ontop of the steak when its done. I heard it's best to cook one side for 1 minute then flip it and cook the other side for one minute. This seals in the moisture. Then flip it and cook that side for however long you want until its to your liking and flip it to the other side again. You should flip it no more than 3 times.

Joke recipe found in a cookbook  Usally this recipe is handwritten on a real recipe card and would be given to the bride along with other family recipes or canning recipes  Make a great conversation starter when the bride is looking through the recipes later and finds it  HOW TO PRESERVE A HUSBAND Be careful in your selection. Do not choose too young and take only such as have been reared in a good moral atmosphere. Some insist on keeping them in a pickle, while others keep them in hot water. This only makes them sour, hard, and sometimes, bitter. Even poor varieties may be made sweet, tender, and good by garnishing them with patience, well sweetened with smiles, and flavored with kisses to taste. Wrap in a mantel of charity, keep warm with a steady fire of domestic devotion, and serve with peaches and cream. When thus preserved, they will keep for years.

I'm not sure if I posted this before but since I dug potatoes tonight I thought I would make some for supper.
A very old Irish recipe.
Colcannon 3 pounds potatoes, scrubbed 2 sticks butter 1 1/4 cups hot milk Freshly ground black pepper 1 head cabbage, cored and finely shredded 1 (1-pound) piece ham or bacon, cooked the day before 4 scallions, finely chopped Chopped parsley leaves, for garnish Steam the potatoes in their skins for 30 minutes. Peel them using a knife and fork. Chop with a knife before mashing. Mash thoroughly to remove all the lumps. Add 1 stick of butter in pieces. Gradually add hot milk, stirring all the time. Season with a few grinds of black pepper. Boil the cabbage in unsalted water until it turns a darker color. Add 2 tablespoons butter to tenderize it. Cover with lid for 2 minutes. Drain thoroughly before returning it to the pan. Chop into small pieces. Put the ham in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 45 minutes until tender. Drain. Remove any fat and chop into small pieces. Add cabbage, scallions, and ham to mashed potatoes, stirring them in gently. Serve in individual soup plates. Make an indentation on the top by swirling a wooden spoon. Put 1 tablespoon of butter into each indentation. Sprinkle with parsley.
I cut down on the butter and I use red potatoes and leave the peel on.

This is really, really, really quite good. Recipe courtesy of AllRecipes.com. I get this at the local Mexican restaurant here, and, while it isn't the same exact recipe as the one I'm giving, it's close enough... Quote:
Mexican Chicken Soup: INGREDIENTS: 1 1/4 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves 2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1/2 cup chopped onions 1/2 cup chopped celery 2 teaspoons ground cumin 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 cup water 3 (14 ounce) cans chicken broth 1 cup diced tomatoes 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese 1 cup crushed tortilla chips 1 avocado - peeled, pitted and diced
DIRECTIONS: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lay chicken breasts onto a baking sheet and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon taco seasoning mix. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, cool and shred or cut into strips. While the chicken is cooking, heat oil in a stockpot and cook the onions and celery until soft. Stir in the water and chicken broth. Season with cumin, black pepper and remaining taco seasoning mix. Simmer for 30 minutes for the flavors to mingle. Add the tomatoes, cilantro and chicken, simmer for 5 more minutes. Serve hot topped with avocado, shredded cheese and crushed tortilla chips.
Quite good, I imagine, if you have a cold or flu.

I'm on a Specific Carbohydrate Diet myself, for this "Crohn's Disease" that I suffer with. It has helped me live with this cronic illness so I don't have to be in the hospital quite as much  The diet can actually be found: breakingtheviciouscycle.info and her book can be purchased at Amazon or Barnes and Nobile. Its a specific diet, not designed for weight loss, but designed to "starve out" the bad bacteria in the body. We then use probiotics "acidophilus", to replenish the good bacteria in the body that the bad stole from us. So basically what it is, is a diet to bring the bodys bacteria levels back to normal levels. This helps with alot of conditions actually, Crohns, Colitis, IBS, IBD, DIabetes, Epilepsy, Attention Defisite DIsorder, etc etc, I offer support for it at my Forums but I also have recipes for just about everything, main dishes, sides, desserts, snacks, you name it  there's pretty much a substitute for everything, except chocolate, but my peanut butter brownies are just "to die" for!  Also, since alot of us are "Lactose intollerant" so to speak, its good for those people too. What we do is we "incubate" our milk for 24 hrs to kill off the "lactose" and "sucrose" in the milk. Everything we eat is basically "sugar restricted" which means we can't have any table sugar whatsoever, what sugar we get is in fresh fruits and vegetables, so we aren't going without essential vitimins and nutrients, we're just "table sugar" restricted so to speak, and not allowed any processed foods or ingredients  Its alot like converting back to the diet man once ate back in "bible" days, pretty interesting stuff

angelwings said: Peanut butter brownies sound so good.Will u b shareing the recipe?  I'm diabetic this sounds like a great book.
Peanut Butter Brownies
1 c. natural peanut butter 1/2 c. honey 1 tsp. baking soda 1 egg
mix egg, honey, and baking soda in bowl. add in peanut butter and bake at 250 for 20 mins, then at 200 for another 20 mins until done in center. Make sure brownies cool to room temp before spreading frosting on top.
Peanut Butter Frosting 1 c. butter 3/4 c. honey 1 t. pure vanilla 1/3 c. peanut butter
set butter out in room temp until soft. Mix all together and beat well with mixer, spread then refergerate.
Natural Peanut butter, is the type of peanut butter where the oil and butter separate if not stirred all the others have sugar in them. Use real butter (not margarine) and use pure vanilla found at most health food stores (not vanilla extract thats found in most grocery stores as it is immitation vanilla and has sugar in it also)

Melanie_O said: Does anyone have a good cheeseball recipe? Or maybe a nice holiday drink recipe?
Hey Melanie. I might be a little late, but I thought I'd share my cheese ball recipe.
2 pkgs cream cheese, softened 2 pkgs thinly sliced ham green onions, small bunch (6 or so, depending on tasts) 3 Tbsp Accent seasoning 3 Tbsp worcestershire sauce ---- 1. chop up ham and onions (reserve 4 to 6 slices if forming into ball) 2. mix ham, onions, and cream cheese 3. add Accent and worcestershire sauce and mix 4. form into a ball and cover with reserved slices of ham or put into container
--
For the Accent and worcestershire sauce ... add more or less, depending on taste. I don't have an exact recipe for this. I'm remembering how an ex-roommate of mine made it. But the 3 Tbsp each makes it pretty dang good. The longer this sits, the better it tastes (the flavors 'mingle').

now "that" is gross! uncivilized 
angelwings, don't you know its impossible to teach old dogs new tricks?...Once they reach the age of 6, the brain is pretty much full, nothing else is teachable Shoo it took 6 sisters, a single mom with no father in his life, and 2 marriages to learn that, and I still always forget. I guess I just try to keep the hope alive. why do you think I'm so scared of women with guns? I have 1 baby brother, and thats it, no other guys in my life at all, and he's afraid to get married because he's afraid he'll be like his father, noone else

Not tenderizer or fungus. Wanted fungus but couldn't find any worth while. Only a bit of grey sea salt, ground pepper and a bit of olive oil.

Ann you are so right.
Tonight's entree.
Grilled Tuna and White Bean Salad Recipe courtesy Bobby Flay
1 pound dried white beans, picked over, and soaked overnight 1 small onion, quartered 1 carrot, coarsely chopped 2 cloves garlic, smashed 1 bay leaf Olive oil 4 to 5 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, divided 1 red onion, peeled, halved, and thinly sliced 1 tablespoon fresh chopped thyme leaves Salt and freshly ground black pepper 2 (8-ounce) tuna steaks 1 head radicchio, halved Coarsely chopped fresh parsley leaves Drain the beans, then with cold water in a large pot and add the onion, carrot, garlic and bay leaf and cook until the beans are soft, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Drain the beans and pick out the onion, carrot, garlic and bay leaf. Place the beans in a bowl and toss with a couple tablespoons each of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Fold in the red onion and thyme, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Preheat grill to high. Brush tuna and radicchio with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the tuna for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until slightly charred and cooked to medium-rare doneness. Grill the radicchio, cut-side down, until slightly charred and wilted. Remove the tuna and radicchio from the grill. Dice tuna into bite-size pieces, and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Slice radicchio into 1/4-inch thick slices. Fold tuna and radicchio into the white beans. Transfer the beans to a platter and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Homemade Guacamole with Mexican Sour Cream Serves 4 Ingredients: 3 large avocados (about 2 pounds/900 g total), peeled, pitted, cubed 1/2 cup/125 ml Mexican crema or sour cream 1/4 bunch chopped fresh cilantro 1/4 cup/55 ml fresh lime juice Salt and freshly ground black pepper Deep-fried Fresh Tortillas (see below for recipe)
Method: Stir the avocados, crema, cilantro and lime juice in a large bowl to blend, keeping a chunky consistency. Season the guacamole generously to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer the guacamole to a bowl.
Serve immediately with the fried tortillas. If not serving the guacamole immediately, press a sheet of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the guacamole to keep it from discoloring, and refrigerate until ready to serve. Deep Fried Fresh Tortillas Serves 4 Ingredients: Vegetable oil, for deep-frying 4 corn tortillas, each cut into 6 wedges Salt Method: Add enough oil to a heavy large frying pan to come 1/3 up the sides of the pan. Heat the oil over medium heat. Working in batches, fry the tortillas in the hot oil until crisp and golden brown, stirring gently so that the chips cook evenly, about 3 to 4 minutes.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried tortillas to paper towels to drain the excess oil. Immediately sprinkle the salt over the hot tortillas and serve.

This is a real recipe
Beer Butt Chicken
All you need for this delicious chicken recipe is: ~~a fresh whole chicken ~~one 12 oz can of ice cold beer ~~your favorite herbs and spices ~~an outdoor grill ~~a mirror ~~one and a half hours
Set your grill on low to medium.
Prepare the chicken by rubbing with your favorite herbs and spices. (The chicken! Not yourself.) Lemon Pepper is one of my favorites.
Now here's the tricky part. Open the can of beer and take one swallow. This is the most important step, but not for the reason you think. I'll explain later.
Now stick the open can of beer up the chicken's . . . Place the open can of beer inside the chicken and set upright on the grill (the chicken, not yourself).
The chicken legs and can of beer will form a tripod.
I know you're getting a mental picture of this and laughing, aren't you? Quit laughing . . . this is serious cooking. (Yeah right--no cooking is serious, I'm serious.)
Now close the lid, talk, socialize and drink beer for an hour and a half. Hopefully you're not by yourself when you do this . . . talking that is. Don't talk to the chicken
Check on the chicken occasson . . . ocass . . . ocassi . . . now and then!
BBQ sauce, if you like, should be coated about the last 15 minutes.
Carefully remove the can of beer. Caveat: The can will be really HOT. I say that because you've been drinking beer for an hour and a half and may have forgotten it's been sitting on a hot grill. When you remove the can it will be almost full. Be careful and wear a glove . . . not a surgical glove.
Now sit in front of the mirror . . . you forgot about it, didn't you? Watch yourself smile when you taste what you just cooked.
REMINDER: Back to that most important first step. OPEN THE CAN OF BEER AND TAKE A SWALLOW. Why? If you ever use this recipe and stick an unopened can of beer up a chicken’s . . . place an unopened can of beer inside the chicken, the top of your grill may need replacing. Beer Butt Chicken may become Rocket Chicken.
If beer is not aprop . . . approap . . . apropp . . . If you don't drink beer you can use various fruit juices too. The hot liquid helps cook the chicken from the inside and adds flavor.
Hope you enjoy my little recipe.

I know you're getting a mental picture of this and laughing, aren't you? Quit laughing . . . this is serious cooking. (Yeah right--no cooking is serious, I'm serious.)
Now close the lid, talk, socialize and drink beer for an hour and a half. Hopefully you're not by yourself when you do this . . . talking that is. Don't talk to the chicken
Check on the chicken occasson . . . ocass . . . ocassi . . . now and then!
BBQ sauce, if you like, should be coated about the last 15 minutes.
Carefully remove the can of beer. Caveat: The can will be really HOT. I say that because you've been drinking beer for an hour and a half and may have forgotten it's been sitting on a hot grill. When you remove the can it will be almost full. Be careful and wear a glove . . . not a surgical glove.
Now sit in front of the mirror . . . you forgot about it, didn't you? Watch yourself smile when you taste what you just cooked.
REMINDER: Back to that most important first step. OPEN THE CAN OF BEER AND TAKE A SWALLOW. Why? If you ever use this recipe and stick an unopened can of beer up a chicken’s . . . place an unopened can of beer inside the chicken, the top of your grill may need replacing. Beer Butt Chicken may become Rocket Chicken.
If beer is not aprop . . . approap . . . apropp . . . If you don't drink beer you can use various fruit juices too. The hot liquid helps cook the chicken from the inside and adds flavor.
Hope you enjoy my little recipe.

Anyone have a taste for something in particular? I have 5 boxes of index cards full of recipes I've collected since I was 5 years old. I'll post one of them if someone has a particular intrest in mind? I had a taste for a cherry cheesecake the other day that I haven't made in along time, but my wife and step-daughter wanted it so I made it for them tonight. I can't have it no more, but if someone else wants it too enjoy cherry cheesecake 1 can cherry pie filling (or whatever flavor you want, my step daughter for instance likes hers made with blueberry pie filling, so I make hers with that, I just prefer cherry myself since I don't like blueberries) 8 oz sour cream 1 pkg creme cheese 1/2 c. sugar 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 pkg crushed graham crackers mixed with melted butter for crust (just one brown package inside the box) basically, I just mix the sour cream and creme cheese together, add sugar and vanilla. mix well, put it on top of the graham cracker crust, put the cherry pie filling on top, and refergerate for 8hrs while the mixture sets. Usually a can of cherry pie filling makes 2 cakes, so I usually double the recipe and make 2 cakes out of it  Ususally I use an 8 inch glass pie pan, but anything equivelent to that will work. I made it in a square pan once before, looked weird but it turned out ok. hehe its not exactally my recipe though, I found it off a sour cream box about 20 years ago or so.  but its a family favorite around here.

I have a slight variation on your recipe ...
Open web browser. Goto papajohns.com. Decide what you want. Place order. Click 'Checkout'. Wait for the pizza delivery guy/gal to bring and pop. 
(I just did this about 10 minutes ago actually ... LOL)

This year for Thanksgiving, I made homemade stuffing. I have never made it from scratch, always Stove Top. It is from the Food network and it was so easy to make and so good!
Sage, sausage and apple dressing
16-ounce bag stuffing cubes 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the pan and topping 1 pound fresh sage sausage, casing removed 1 medium onion, chopped 2 cooking apples, such as Gravenstein, Rome, or Golden Delicious, peeled, cored, and chopped 1 to 2 ribs celery with leaves, chopped 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 3 cups chicken broth, homemade or low-sodium canned 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley 1/2 cup walnut pieces, toasted (See Note) 2 eggs, beaten
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Put the stuffing cubes in a large bowl and set aside. Butter a 3-quart casserole dish.
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and break up with a wooden spoon. Cook until it loses most of its pink color, but not so much that it's dry, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage and pan drippings to the stuffing cubes. Melt the remaining butter in the pan. Add the onion, apple, celery, and salt. Cook until the vegetables get soft, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and parsley and bring to a boil.
Pour the vegetable mixture over the stuffing cubes and toss until evenly moistened. Mix in the walnuts and eggs. Loosely pack the dressing in the prepared pan and cook uncovered until the top forms a crust, about 40 minutes. Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of turkey pan drippings or melted butter over the top. Cook until the top is crisp and golden, about 20 minutes more. Set immediately or warm.
Tips: Put the dressing in the oven during the last hour of cooking the turkey Note: To toast nuts, spread them out on a baking sheet and toast in a 350 degree F oven until golden, about 7 minutes.
Everyone loved it and have requested it for Christmas.

Southwestern Corn Soup with Red Peppers
For the grill: 4 cobs of corn, husked 3 red peppers 4 tablespoons of corn, olive or vegetable oil
For the soup: 2 tablespoons of corn, vegetable or olive oil 4 small onions, thinly sliced 4 cloves of garlic, minced 1 tablespoon of cumin powder 4 cups of chicken broth, homemade or canned 1 ancho pepper 1 cup of cornmeal, (fine or coarse) 1 cup grated cheddar cheese (sharp or old for the most flavor) 1 lime, juice and zest 1 cup of chopped cilantro
For the grill: Preheat your grill. This is an optional step, you may choose to use a can of creamed corn instead but you'll miss the toasty flavors of the grill if you do!
Halve and remove the seeds and stem from the red peppers. You may also use green, yellow or orange peppers for a multi-hued effect.
Toss the corn and pepper halves with the oil.
Grill until they start to char and become tender, about ten minutes. If you don't have a grill, you may roast the corn and peppers under your oven's broiler; turning frequently. Place the hot peppers in a small bowl and cover with plastic wrap allowing the steam to loosen the skins. After 10 minutes or so - when the skin is easily peeled off - thinly slice the peppers and set aside to add to the finished soup. Meanwhile allow the corn to cool then cut off the kernels with a sharp knife and set aside with the peppers.
For the soup: Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a thick-bottomed soup pot over a medium-high heat. You may use a regular-bottomed pot, but thicker versions spread the heat more evenly as a result the ingredients in the pot don't burn over any inadvertent hot spots.
Add the onions and cook - stirring frequently - until golden brown. After a few minutes the onions will lose their pungency and actually taste quite bland, once they begin to brown their flavor revives considerably.
Add the garlic and cumin powder. Stir for a few minutes longer until you can smell the garlic and cumin. It's best to add the garlic now instead of with the onions as the garlic will burn in the time it takes the onions to brown. The cumin may be stale from sitting in a can. The high heat of the browning toasts it a bit, brightening its distinctive flavor.
Add chicken broth and ancho pepper and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 20 minutes until the pepper softens and infuses the soup with its mildly spicy flavor. Remove it, mince it and add it back to the soup base. You may also choose to puree the soup at this point with a handheld blender.
Slowly stir in the cornmeal. The cornmeal will swell in the surrounding hot liquid and thicken the soup. This will take about 10 minutes. If you prefer you may add more cornmeal for a thicker soup.
At this point the soup is ready to be finished and served. Alternatively you may refrigerate it overnight then reheat it when needed and finish it just before serving. You may also finish it and refrigerate or freeze it, but if you do the cilantro will lose its bright flavor and color.
To finish - stir in the reserved corn kernels, the reserved red pepper strips, grated cheddar cheese, lime (juice and zest) and the cilantro.
Taste, and season with salt. Garnish with a few more sprigs of cilantro and perhaps a dollop of sour cream or even plain yogurt. Enjoy!
Yield: 4 - 6 servings

Guess who only had one egg in their household after breakfast today? http://www.recipezaar.com/4687The freezer is still running. I'll give a report on this venture into the unknown later this evening. Lisa claims she quit buying ice cream since we're supposed to be on a diet. It's a good thing I can do an end run around that policy with a six quart freezer.
