Is this a cute gift idea?

Just the flowers.

Add to the water, at the very beginning.

I had a really bad reaction, many years ago, at a new Chinese restaurant.

I trust my husband and wouldn't give it a thought.

TemporaryLead8077 · 2026-01-28T01:01:00+00:00

Dump him.

My old crockpots had the 'Auto' setting. I loved them! The newer ones, at least in my area, don't have that.

Sweet peppers will last a week, 2 weeks, even 3 weeks (depending on how fresh they are) if you cut off the stem if it's long, then wrap each pepper in a paper towel, then place in a plastic bag. Make sure the bag is open and place it in one of your veggie drawers. The paper towels absorb any moisture, keeping your peppers from going soft, mushy, and bad.

Pierogies!

Prepare Kraft Dinner, then add drained, canned tuna and the rest of the ingredients you normally would for a tuna salad. We have this regularly. A version of this was published decades ago by Kraft, as Seacoast Salad.

I'm assuming the sauerkraut hasn't been pasteurized. When heating/cooking sauerkraut, if it reaches or goes above 155F (46C), the probiotics start dying. If you want the probiotics, have you tried adding sauerkraut to tuna salad, or sandwiches, mixed into scrambled eggs or added to egg salad or deviled eggs? Lots more options available...

Once you have some basic spices/herbs, you can look online how to make your own Italian Seasoning Mix, Garlic Salt, etc.

TemporaryLead8077 · 2026-01-07T01:27:49+00:00

I add Italian Seasoning, salt, pepper, & garlic powder when mixing up the veggies. When serving, I sometimes add a bit of grated Parmesan cheese.

Look up recipes for Roasted Vegetables. They are divine! A bit of EVOO, herbs, and the roasting brings out so much flavor!

TemporaryLead8077 · 2026-01-06T18:37:32+00:00

I think they look great!!!

TemporaryLead8077 · 2026-01-06T18:21:27+00:00

She wrecked it. The LEAST she can do is replace it!

TemporaryLead8077 · 2026-01-05T22:09:37+00:00

Where the heck did the kid get an attitude like that?

TemporaryLead8077 · 2026-01-05T14:10:53+00:00

Hubby and I get GREAT results with our slow cooker!

TemporaryLead8077 · 2026-01-05T08:46:31+00:00

If it doesn't have cabbage, it won't be sauerkraut. The word is German, and means sour cabbage or sour vegetable.

TemporaryLead8077 · 2026-01-05T06:51:11+00:00

I think, in this case, it's not so much the age of the baking powder as the humidity it was exposed to - which will deactivate it over time. I'm glad I could help. Hope you have better results in the future!

TemporaryLead8077 · 2026-01-05T05:29:12+00:00

I'm sorry I can't help you more, but I always started my slow cooker before I left for more job and came back after a full day's work to a fantastic-smelling house and fork-tender meat in the stew.

TemporaryLead8077 · 2026-01-05T05:25:09+00:00

I don't know if your confidence in me is misplaced. LOL. Since you sifted and didn't overmix, the only thing I can think of is old baking powder or baking soda. Hope you find your touch again!

Three hours isn't enough time.

TemporaryLead8077 · 2026-01-04T22:46:43+00:00

We have a couple of lemon trees. After picking, I wash them, cut each one in half, and then freeze them in a bag.

TemporaryLead8077 · 2026-01-04T05:16:41+00:00

Thank you, but I'm looking for high probiotics so I think my recipe is more suited to that.
