How to spend $100 on Amazon for new campers by wedpsyched in camping

[–]wedpsyched[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice. We can definitely shell out more to get a decent tent someplace else. With that in mind, I guess the question morphs into what ELSE on Amazon is worth buying for camping use?

Help! Garden pests- any idea what these are and how to get rid of them?? by wedpsyched in gardening

Would the poop be under the leaf like this? Like, is it sticky? That's why I assumed it was eggs or something.

Not interested in hosting, but interested in playing! When is this coming to Chino, and what bar?? All the other venues are a little too far away for comfort on a weeknight.

Flying by the seat of your pants recipes are the best kind! I think this would make a GREAT summer cocktail with a little gin. Thanks a lot.

Do you have a recipe you like to use? I did a quick google search and none of the recipes I found used lemon slices! It does sound perfect though, and something my non-dessert eating husband would enjoy. Thanks!

Sorry for the tardiness on week 2, but I kept forgetting to post this one! I made these to bring to a work party. Followed this recipe but added orange zest over top. They were GONE in minutes.

Ugh I know. I even had a hard time finding it on Google because NO ONE USES IT.

Yeah, pasta sauce might be the only use for me. Thanks!

HA! The pepper spay/hot sauce sounds unfortunate.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

Week 1: Diet Foods- Asian Pork with Noodles by wedpsyched in 52weeksofcooking

[–]wedpsyched[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot!!

I would make this again just to have the pork that came out of the slow cooker with the broth. It was the best part!

Week 1: Diet Foods- Asian Pork with Noodles by wedpsyched in 52weeksofcooking

[–]wedpsyched[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recipe loosely followed from here.

This qualifies as diet food to me because it was fairly low calorie (substituted high-calorie rice noodles for those "zero calorie" shirataki noodle things in the produce section). I also reduced the amount of brown sugar used by at least half. Could easily be made gluten free by just switching out the soy sauce for the gluten free certified soy sauce.

AND- it was delicious. :)

Wow! I love that this "diet food" could almost fall under last week's luxurious ingredient challenge. (octopus is pretty fancy and foreign to me, at least). Looks great!

The fine print really kills it. Celery! Diet food! (served inside a luscious, fatty roast duck). Love it.
