I'm making my brother's grooms cake, and I need help figuring out how much batter I need to fill the large?

14 inch by 2 inch round cake pan? His favorite cake is a cinnamon streusal bundt cake that I make for him every year, and he has asked that if I could make a large round cake of the cinnamon streusal for his groom's cake. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!I'm making my brother's grooms cake, and I need help figuring out how much batter I need to fill the large?
20 cups will make 2 layers in a 14 x 2 round cake pan.I'm making my brother's grooms cake, and I need help figuring out how much batter I need to fill the large?
probably a double of what you normally do but I would go ahead and make 3 times the normal amount fill your pan to about 1/2 '; for the top and use the rest in a bundt pan for your self or a dinner party dessert. you can also make it extra bundt pan and freeze it for later. Good luck and tell your brother congratulations on his upcoming nuptials

There you go!





It's really quite easy to find the answers to such things without turning to other people--just use the Google search, try this out:


Volume of baking pans


Volume of cake pans


Et cetera...just type in what you want!





These are the types of charts I use in a pro kitchen.
Measure and fill the cake pans with water first. Then you'll know how many cups of batter you'll need.

I have the dough made, but should I make it thinner so the middle will cook, put it on lower heat, etc.?I'm making a pizza sized cookie, (medium pizza), is there anything that I should do different?
Cook it a little longer than the normal batch of cookies. Also, keep toothpicks handy to ensure the center is cooked before removing from the oven.I'm making a pizza sized cookie, (medium pizza), is there anything that I should do different?
Cook the same as the other pizza. Could check a cookbook for an exact time.

I am making a rack of lamb for Christmas dinner. Where can I buy a reasonable price lamb?

Costco has great lamb. I was just there last week (in Plano, Tollway and Park) and they had excellent rack of lamb and boneless leg of lamb. I think it was New Zealand lamb. Sorry, I didn't notice the price on the rack. The boneless leg was about 3.99 per pound.I am making a rack of lamb for Christmas dinner. Where can I buy a reasonable price lamb?

I don't know any in your specific area, but I always find reasonable prices on good, fresh cuts of meat at my local independent butcher/deli. Try one of those places, you can even tell them what you're making and they'll help you decide the best cut/amount.
Rack of lamb usually runs about $12-$15 a pound. If you are having a lot of people for dinner you can expect to pay upwards of $100 or more just for the lamb.





About 6 years ago I bought a rack of lamb for two. It cost over $21.00.
sam's. there is a farm where i live that will dress a lamb--you have to buy all the meat, but it is inexpensive.
I buy mine at Costco, might be Sam's Club to you. One rack per two people.

  • When is the best time to add herbs/oil when making homeade soap?

    I am using the traditional homeade recipe using lye and oil which requires a saponification reaction and dont want additives to interfere.


    Thanks!When is the best time to add herbs/oil when making homeade soap?
    Always add herbs at light to med trace--but before your fragrance (if adding any additional fragrance) but prior to pouring in the mold. Your herbs will suspend nicely and be evenly distributed.When is the best time to add herbs/oil when making homeade soap?
    Add when your soap begins to cool a little. It will suspend better as opposed to sinking to the bottom.

    What would be the best lubricant for the process of making table mould bricks?

    In the process of making table mould bricks, after the sticky clay is filled into the mould, the mould is overturned, to release the clay in the shape of a brick. But, while it is dropped, because of ineffective lubrication on the inside walls of the mould, the resulting shape of the brick is unsatisfactory.





    At the moment we are using soap powder as the lubricant, which is unsatisfactory.





    It would be great if someone can let me know of a good alternative for this purpose. Thanks.What would be the best lubricant for the process of making table mould bricks?

    What aspects of yourself do you worry about when making a good impression on a 1st date?

    This goes for both genders. If your avatar or username doesn't indicate your gender, please include it in your answer.





    I didn't want to post this in the dating category in hopes of receiving answers from mostly adults and not high school kids.What aspects of yourself do you worry about when making a good impression on a 1st date?
    Scaring the hell out of him haha





    I'd ask pretty much every important question on the first date. I was never into wasting time. Had a goal and wasn't into dicking around being too delicate about it.





    Even at that, never really a ';bad'; date. Some were a little overwhelmed or shocked I'd ask for details, past, present and future, but most were on the same page about not wasting time going slow so it worked out.





    Others were just like, ';You're cool and all, but I don't really wanna get in this deep so quickly';. We'd finish the date but part ways and either keep in touch on the platonic level or just fade to black after that night.





    There were some that I was pretty into because of the ';spark'; factor, and I was worried/nervous my personality wouldn't work with his. Some were just physical attraction in the end, on either or both sides, kinda disappointing at points.What aspects of yourself do you worry about when making a good impression on a 1st date?
    Well I don't think about things like this when I am going on a first date. The more you worry about it the more it will get in the way of having a good time. The best thing to do is to relax and have a good time.

    When making bread if on the second time it proofs in the fridge can you put it in the oven without being warm?

    Can you take bread dough from the fridge if doubled in size and put it directly in the oven?When making bread if on the second time it proofs in the fridge can you put it in the oven without being warm?
    Yes, no problem.It just gives you the benefit of a crispy crust and soft and moist inside. sprinkle the dough with a little water just before baking to encourage more steam.When making bread if on the second time it proofs in the fridge can you put it in the oven without being warm?
    You can, but it's not reccomended. why, I don't know.
    You can but it won't work. You'll have less than prefect bread, but if that's not a concern go for it!
    Yes.





    Read the instructions on one of the ';poppin fresh'; Pilsburry cans... Essentially the same thing. (except done at home should be better)
    first of all dough has to be proofed in a warm environment, so the yeast can do it's work. putting it in a fridge will slow it down and probably or most likely seize up the raising process. taking cold dough and putting it in a hot oven will not work..it has to be at least room temp to not have it flop on you when you do bake it.

    When making brie and cranberry filo parcels should the cranberries be dry or fresh?

    Should the cranberries be dry .. or fresh?When making brie and cranberry filo parcels should the cranberries be dry or fresh?
    don't use fresh, they pop or explode when cooked, I wonder if any of the answerers who said ';fresh'; has ever cooked a fresh cranberry?


    use the dried type by the raisins or whole berry cranberry style in the can for extra juicyWhen making brie and cranberry filo parcels should the cranberries be dry or fresh?
    Either fresh Cranberries or I would use a really fresh jam or non-syrup based compote. The jam makes it a little easier to spread around. Best of luck!
    I think it'll taste better if the cranberries are fresh.
    Always fresh.

  • What exactly is the difference between regular kissing and making out?

    I have been wondering this lately...





    I have always thought of regular kissing as closed mouth kissing and making out is open mouth(French kissing)





    am I right?What exactly is the difference between regular kissing and making out?
    Here is what both of them are:





    Regular Kissing:


    Lip to Lip contact, usually closed mouth, but may sometimes be open mouthed with a small amount of tongue, usually lasts for a few seconds. If tongue is used, it's usually a slight ';touch';, where the tongue touches the other's lips.





    Making out:


    Lip to Lip, and Tongue contact involved, usually opened mouth, kissing usually lasts a few minutes. The tongues are inserted into each other's mouths.





    Hope you have learnt something here,


    KronixWhat exactly is the difference between regular kissing and making out?
    kissing is sweet and adorable. you expect little kids to kiss not make out.





    making out involves pretty much your whole body. your tongue is usually like partying in the other persons mouth, your feeling each other, and whatever else you want.








    kissing is always shorter than making out tho and making out, well for me anyways can be a real time consumer :]
    kissing is sweet and cute, and belongs in a pg movie.





    making out is the fun stuff. you lose control, you're reaching all over, nothing the other person does surprises you, and you go for anything. haha, maybe you end up breaking stuff, or find yourself on the other side of the room, can't find your clothes afterwards....etc :]





    kissing is adorable, but making out really just ends up more fun.
    making out is kissing for like, 5 minutes, with or without tongue.





    and yes, it is more sexually explicit.
    kissing is like 2 birds on a branch during a beautiful spring day








    making out is like 2 horny teens ready to have s3x in front of the whole class
    I think making out includes some hugging, groping, and maybe more . . .
    Exactly
    yeah, and making out involves tongue
    Making out is when your hands are on the butt of the other party.
    tongue
    I think you're right.
    ha. theres a big difference :p





    and pretty much :p
    Making out is like going to second base with someone.
    I'd say so.

    When making chiles rellenos, how do I remove the seeds?

    without having to remove the stem or having the chile fall apart? I love them but the seeds ruin them for me.When making chiles rellenos, how do I remove the seeds?
    Just Cut them lengthwise and scoop them out with a teaspoon


    By the way this is my favorite recipe for Relleno's if your interested and I am so jealous, I am sitting here with a bowl of microwave popcorn!!!





    oohh ohhh i love those!!!

    jalepeno is optional


    make a slice lengthwise on each relleno


    stuff the papas inside the relleno


    bake @ 400 for about 1/2 hour covered


    top with a red sauce...


    I was a manager at a top mexican rest in NY and this was how we made them.... it was one of our top sellers!!!When making chiles rellenos, how do I remove the seeds?
    Cut a slit in the chile long ways (all the way down the chile). Then clean out the inside using your hand. Then you can stuff the chilis with cheese. My mom usually batters and fries them, so the batter seals the chili shut where she slices it open to clean out the seeds. If you can't get them to stay together, use a toothpick to hold it while they cook. Just remember to remove the toothpicks before you serve them. The sauce is really the key. I look a good tomato sauce with onions and chili in the sauce itself. Pour the sauce over the top, and joila! Don't be afraid to slice open the chili and cut off the stem. You don't intend to eat the stem, do you?
    u just cut a slit and take em out!!


    MMMM....so ur making chiles rellenos yummmm!


    I 鈾?chiles rellenos !!! :D LoL!

    In making Sicilian Pasta, could you substitute the celery stalks with any other veg?

    Are you referring to the celery used in the sofritto at the start of the process? The best combination for this, I find, is celery, carrot, shallot and a bit of garlic. I tend not to use a substitute for the celery and just add some extra shallot or onion. Its difficult really to suggest anything but I do sometimes us a bit of finely diced sweet pepper in the base mixture for the sauce.In making Sicilian Pasta, could you substitute the celery stalks with any other veg?
    I have a huge herb in my garden called lovage. It has a celery flavour. I use it in dishes that require celery. It also makes wonderful soup. It is very easy to grow. Maybe some gardeners round you may have some.In making Sicilian Pasta, could you substitute the celery stalks with any other veg?

  • How can I determine yarn gauge in crochet without making a full swatch?

    I found a pattern I like that calls for bulky yarn and a 6.5 hook. I found some yarn that I like that doesn't list a size, only a gauge with a size 10 hook. How can I tell if it will work in my pattern without making a swatch? I don't want to buy the yarn if I can't use it.How can I determine yarn gauge in crochet without making a full swatch?
    Using a yarn that recommends using a 10 probably can't replace a yarn that is using a 6.5. The yarn would double the size of your pattern using a 10, and would not work using a 6.5 due to it's size.





    You can always edit a pattern. If you know what stitch the pattern is using and what multiples that stitch works in, you can scale it down to match the bigger yarn.How can I determine yarn gauge in crochet without making a full swatch?
    Don't rely on the guage listed on the yarn itself as a guide. Only go by the guage suggestion on your pattern.





    Most patterns will specify the yarn type and brand used, but you can interchange if you're using the same weight of yarn:





    superfine, baby, -- 2


    sport yarn----- 3


    worsted 4


    bullky-- 5


    super bulky 6





    If your pattern calls for bulky yarn, then make sure that you're buying yarn that specifies that its bulky, chunky or 5 for fiber.

    Why are Borderline Personality Disorder people so good at making people become infatuated with them?

    People with Borderline Personality Disorder seem to have a talent for making people very quickly become infatuated/obsessed with the Borderline (I won't use the word love).





    How is it that they have this ';talent';?Why are Borderline Personality Disorder people so good at making people become infatuated with them?
    There are different types of behavior with BPD. There are those who predominently act out (raging) and those who act in (cutting) and there is a continuum with sufferers somewhere on a spectrum - low functioning (prone to drug use and poor societal function, crime, and hospitalization) and high functioning (can hold down a job and ';appear'; normal to people not close - like family - to the BPD.) Higher functioning BPDs almost universally deny that they have a problem. My opinion of higher functioning BPDs who predominently act out is that they lack a conscience and are self absorbed.





    If a BPD is higher functioning and intelligent, they often have the ability to ';read people'; pretty well. They can also be extremely adept at manipulation. It's very easy to not understand the manipulation, especially when everyone else around (i.e. not family) seems to think well of the BPD. The manipulation and the lack of insight from others can make the non-BPD doubt their own instincts.





    At the core of all BPD behavior is fear of abandonment and great difficulty dealing with their feelings.





    CONTROL is at the core of effective, manipulative BPDs. It's a sick game, but it gets played by many women. BPD is the most prevalent personality disorder and yet most people have never hear of it. Statistics show that just about everyone interacts with a BPD at work or school and is completely oblivious.Why are Borderline Personality Disorder people so good at making people become infatuated with them?
    it's 'professional manipulation'.ask any of %26lt;some%26gt; us BPD's.and btw we-(i) don't like being like that.it's a disorder like any other mental illness.we did'nt ask for this.just like other's don't ask for they're diaganosis(es).not to be harsh but sometimes it seem's ppl. judge ppl. w/ BPD.not that you are.nevermind. p.s.BPD is in most cases brought on by traumatic experiences in early childhood.
    Drama! Not everyone will love them, many will hate them or simply not care, but many are attracted to drama.





    The other thing is that there are a lot of people out there who seem to have a fetish for saving others, being that knight in shining armour or the girl who made the bad guy good. It's sometimes a power trip on their part and someone as screwed up and dramatic as a borderline? Is the perfect mate especially since borderlines often idolize their lovers, until they do something wrong and then they hate them with a passion, being hated or loved are both powerful positions to be in especially when it's a mentally fragile person who is doing either the loving or the hating.





    If you find yourself attracted to someone with this disorder or who displays many symptoms of this disorder, it might be wise to look into yourself. If there's a pattern, it's likely you've got something wrong with yourself. Mentally healthy people are not going to fall for borderline dramatics at least not twice.
    people feel sorry for them
    Yea im sure thats what they r doin. Its all about u rite? Get over urself - B aware !

    How much difference does smiling make when making friends?

    And why does it make a difference?





    I feel like when I smile, people are able to be around with me with ease and joke around me.How much difference does smiling make when making friends?
    Well a smile is just universally known as something warm and affectionate. When someone smiles, their brains automatically go to that warm and comfortable feeling. Thus making people more comfortable and at ease around you.





    Have you ever noticed that when someone is laughing, and the other one has no idea what that person is laughing about, starts laughing themselves?





    A smile and happiness can be contagious, so in this case, stand close.How much difference does smiling make when making friends?
    Hi, just be yourself. If you try to be someone you're not, people can see through this and won't want anything to do with you. So be yourself and the friends will come running. Chat to anyone and everyone, start by asking how their holidays were, then the conversation should follow on from their. You sound a nice person, so I don't think you've got anything to worry about. good luck!

    Where can I get some copyright free information on making greeting cards?

    My wife makes greeting cards as a hobby and I have created a website for her to show off her creations. I would also like to add some tutorials on how to make cards, and information about the products and equipment available, techniques and styles, etc.





    My wife is too busy making cards to write and I don't know enough about it myself to write anything of merit.





    Do you know of any websites, ebooks, etc, with relevant information that I can copy onto my website? Obviously, they would need to be copyright free or public domain. I wouldn't mind spending some money for a good ebook as long as I would have the right to extract information and display it on the site.





    If anyone has written anything that I can use, I'd be grateful if you could let me have it.Where can I get some copyright free information on making greeting cards?

Half a dozen monthly magazines, lots of books (check the local library), Craft %26amp; Create and QVC on Sky and the internet, evening classes, workshops, etc. etc.


    Mention your local craft shop(s). Your wife's internet suppliers.


    There is no need to go to a lot of trouble reinventing the wheel.Where can I get some copyright free information on making greeting cards?
    Easiest and cheapest way is to send a design in the post to yourself and do not open it. The envelope is dated so is effectively proof of when it was made. Include any relevant deteils in the envelope.

    Im making a report on why my parents should get me another dog. What should i include?

    i know how you feel i did the same thing





    1.say what kind


    2. offer to do things in return for them getting you one


    3. say your dog needs a playmate or it will live a lonely depressed life.


    4.say i need more friends


    5. and finaly what i did was when cristmas came i only said i wanted a dog and my parents couldnt guess anything else that i would want so the decided i could get one.Im making a report on why my parents should get me another dog. What should i include?
    Well as someone else said they are probably the ones paying for everything, so it's their decision.





    That being said, I would think that the best way to convince them that you are ready is to take excellent care of the pets you have now, and then just talk to them and let them know that you would enjoy another dog. Maybe point out that dogs can play together in a way that people and dogs can't play together (the snarling and wrestling around), so everyone benefits from another dog.
    Have you ever thought that maybe your parents can't afford to bring in another animal? That is twice the food, twice the vet bills, twice the amount of poop YOU will have to pick up. Also your other dog may not want to share you with another dog. There is no way you can convince your parents to get you a dog unless you can afford to pay for it yourself. That is what I had to do for my cat.
    Tell them about how another pet can make you more responible.


    t is probably best to get a dog this time as dog/***** combinations tend to get on better together than two bitches.





    Two bitches can find it difficult to get on when the puppy reaches puberty and comes into season for the first time 鈥?not always, but sometimes 鈥?and it is worth considering a dog just to avoid this.





    Male puppies can be a bit more boisterous and competitive than female puppies, but border terriers are not known for their behaviour problems so you should be okay. Good luck and I hope you enjoy him.





    You may like to read The Perfect Puppy which has more information on understanding %26amp; choosing your puppy.
    how YOU plan to pay for the care of a second dog, your parents are already paying for 4 pets





    what YOU plan to do with the dog in another 4-6 years when you go to college.. and I mean do research and see how much it really costs to get an apartment that allows a dog.
    Care for your other dog.





    You're very lucky to have all those pets in the first place. Were in a recession, and dogs are a lot of money. I have noticed that, especially for kids with other pets, parents usually stick to the ';no';.
    Just say that you don't want your puppy to get lonely, or mention about getting a different type of dog, maybe a bigger one to have a variety
    you have a dog and a cat and 2 hamsters. Can't you be happy with them, do you really need another dog? When you pay for it and care for it 100% of the time then get another dog

    Your portfolio is for your absolute best work, to show what you are capable of doing. So yes, if the edited version of a picture looks much better, use that one.When Making a Photography portfolio is it good to keep you pictures the way you shot them or edit them?
    definitely use the edited ones, if it looks better, but also remember to choose your weakest photo wisely because it is one of the main reasons how your portfolio will be judged
    Some people like to put both versions of a photo in the portfolio, showing the potential customer not onlyhow well they can take a photograph, but how well they can change it

    I dont know what you mean by home-based business. Is it Amway or Mary Kay, where you are just selling stuff that you buy from someone else? If this is the type of business then you wont have any additional savings by incoporating.





    If you have employees/customers in your home regularly and you want to ensure that they cant sue you personally, then incorporating may be advantageous. But generally, the only advantage of incorporating is to limit liability.





    You can take all deductions that a corporation can, by just filing a schedule C (sole proprietorship) with your tax return. You can deduct all ordinary and necessary business expenses. You may also be able to deduct your home office expenses if you conduct business there and meet with clients there.





    Be sure to document all business expenses and use a separate bank account with debit card. This way all of your income and expenses are in one spot and on one statement, in case of audit.

    What do I do with the leftover gravy after making pot roast?

    I made a wonderful pot roast in the slow cooker with onions mushrooms and carrots. Now the roast is almost gone and I still have a put full of the gravy that I dont want to waste. Any ideas?What do I do with the leftover gravy after making pot roast?
    i like leftover gravy on toast or you can mix it with cooked egg noodles and any leftover roast or cooked hamburgerWhat do I do with the leftover gravy after making pot roast?
    You can freeze it! Another idea is to put it in an ice cube tray and take out a cube or two to use as seasoning for soups or other dishes you might want to make. You can also dilute it with beef broth and diced tomatoes to make the basis for a good minestrone soup.
    Mashed potatoes or chicken (country) fried steak. Or shepherd's pie!
    you can freeze it in sall containers for future use.


    I like it warmed up on a piece of bread.
    You can freeze the gravy.


    Redd
    Use it for the base for a chili, soup or stew.


    Use ground beef, boy will it be exra good with that 1st. layer of flavor.
    My Mom always uses it as a base for soup. She uses any leftover beef, adds some veggies like potatoes, carrots, green beans, corn, or whatever you like. You can add water and/or canned cut up tomatoes to thin the broth. She serves it with hot bread. It is great!
    I have done the freeze thing that other have spoken of and used the gravy as a base for beef stew. Or get some sliced roast beef from the deli


    and start with toasted bread triangles or points. Pile with fresh mashed potatoes put the beef on top then finally top it with you own wonderful gravy warmed. Mmmm love this stuff, by adding some extra 'shrooms they are even better
    If you have a dog mix it in its dry food, the dog will think its getting a special treat
    * I'll freeze it for later use.

  • What's the difference between shortening and butter when making chocolate chip cookies?

    I want to make mine thick and and chewy. Would shortening help?What's the difference between shortening and butter when making chocolate chip cookies?
    As a long time Chocolate Chip Cookie baker I prefer to use shortening. Bake them at 350 degrees for only about 5 minutes. Add 1 Tablespoon Vanilla instead of the 1 teaspoon as called form in the recipe-also add extra shortening. Have you ever tried Butter flavored shortening? Happy Baking! :)What's the difference between shortening and butter when making chocolate chip cookies?
    If you want them thick and chewy drop them on the cookie tray a little bigger. And only bake them till they get a little brown at the edges. Since when you take them out of the oven they continue to bake while on the cookie tray





    Shortening might help make them a little softer since burns/cooks at a higher temp than butter.





    But cookies made with butter just taste better IMO
    shortening is the dreaded trans fat!! hydrogenated vegetable oil! don't use the stuff unless you have to... other than that i don't really know if it would make cookies any more chewy!! good luck! :)
    Yes. Butter tends to make a crisper cookie. You won't get that rich butter taste, though.
    Use shortening, not butter. Shortening will give more of a chewy texture. Be sure to only cook the cookies the aloted time.
    To make cookies chewy use butter and don't bake them to long.I use butter now whenever I make cookies
    yes..the cookies don't get stiff and crunchy. they stay chewy.
    Shortening is a better bet for chewy cookies. Butter will make crispier cookies. You may want to try the Butter Flavored shortening as well. Soft cookies + butter flavor = happy family.
    butter is semi - fat, and shortening in complete fat. That is why


    shortening melts faster.

    How do I get rid of wasps and bees making their homes in my wooden deck and wooden siding?

    Our house is 4 years old, with pine siding and a pine deck. The bees are awful! And I imagine chewing up all of our wood. Can I get rid of them myself, how would I accomplish this, or should I call a professional?How do I get rid of wasps and bees making their homes in my wooden deck and wooden siding?
    You don't want to get rid of the bees because bees are fastly becoming endangered. Scientist are saying without bees in the world, humans will die off eventually.How do I get rid of wasps and bees making their homes in my wooden deck and wooden siding?
    Use a water hose and hose them down. After a couple of times, they will determine that that spot or area is too wet for them to live at so they will move on.
    Spray it with wasp spray at night when they are dormant. They once they are dead, remove the nest. Keep spraying once they are removed to keep them from rebuilding in the same place.
    spary it!!!

    is it the same??

    was wishing to make a full recovery disc and think i followed the instructions okay.





    the reason i am doing this is there was no full recovery disc that came with this lap top.





    somewhere i pressed something that said update back up files every month or week or daily.





    i dont know if this is the same thing or not.





    please explain the differance,





    thanks for your answers!What is the differance between making a back full restore disc and making a backup file disc?
    restore disk is for re-installing your system in case your computer crashes, but if you already have the disk to install your system then dont bother with itWhat is the differance between making a back full restore disc and making a backup file disc?
    backing up files is copying all files that you have on your computer so none of it gets lost. a recovery disc is a disc that starts your computer from factory setting which means all of your stuff will be gone and it would be like when you first got the computer. hope this helps
    A restore disc is what you create so that you can restore your system files, i.e. operating system, should anything go wrong, whllst the other is merely backing up your data files, which you should always get into the habit of doing on a regular basis.

    Hello





    TEAK WOOD is best quality for making Paddle.





    It is easy to cut and easy to use sand paper.





    SANDLE WOOD is also best quality. It gives you pleasent odour all the day and throught the Year. But cost is very High. It is available only in India, Mayanmar, Srilanka.








    subbunaicker@yahoo.co.inWhat would be a some good quality woods for making a paddle?
    I hope that by ';paddle'; you mean oars..... you aren't going to be beating any kids are you???
    ash, maple, cedar, poplar, cherry. Use a fine grit sand paper to sand it down properly to a smooth finish.
    If easy to work is most important, try white pine or spruce,though spruce is heavy. Hardwoods like birch, maple, are lovely but harder to work. It might depend on what's available in your area and its price. For sandpaper, just go to your local building supply and see what they've got, most of them are pretty good, hope you have a power sander..
    Ash, maple.

    Will making Coq au Vin in my bare cast iron dutch oven disintegrate its seasoning?

    I can't afford those expensive Le Creuset ones so I bought a super cheap Lodge dutch oven. Since Coq au vin has wine, which is an acid, will cooking Coq au vin in seasoned cast iron for the prolonged period of time disintegrate my hard earned seasoning? Is it really worth an extra 170 bucks for a pot?Will making Coq au Vin in my bare cast iron dutch oven disintegrate its seasoning?
    Properly seasoned cast iron should hold up for a cooking session. I have cooked up food with some of the hottest peppers, tomatoes, etc and not had trouble during cooking. If you store highly acidic foods you will give the acid time to break down the seasoning. But if that should happen the dutch oven can be reseasoned. I wash and rinse my pots in hot water. Dry them and then put a coat of shortening on them. The shortening will melt and flow into the pores of the metal. Wipe out any excess shortening and heat to 450-500 degrees. This is best done outside in a bbq grill as the grease will smoke quite a bit as it burns. Allow it to sit in the heat for a few minuteas. Check to make sure there is no pooled grease (if so wipe it away as excess grease will prevent your pot from seasoning evenly). Then allow the pot to ';cook'; until it stops smoking. You are actually carbonizing the shortening and leaving a carbon ';nonstick'; coating.Will making Coq au Vin in my bare cast iron dutch oven disintegrate its seasoning?
    Well, those on the frontier cooked lots of chili (tomatoes = acid) and also other ';wet'; things all the time and of course they had only the non-ceramic-covered cast iron Dutch ovens.


    I think it's more a matter of how much acid you use, and how seasoned the pot is already, etc.





    Here's something I found from one Dutch oven site:





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>




    . . . It is recommended that you cook foods with high fat and grease content the FIRST FEW TIMES to EXPEDITE seasoning. This would include cooking bacon, sausage, hamburger, or deep frying potatoes, chicken, etc.





    Soups, stews, and beans (foods with high moisture and acid content) have a tendency to remove seasoning from a cast iron utensil and you'll want to avoid cooking those AT FIRST, or at least be aware that your utensil MAY have to BE RE-SEASONED.


    After regular use, clean and oil lightly while warm, then wipe dry with a paper towel or soft cloth before storing. Your ironware will darken with use and improve with age.





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>




    Having a ceramic coated cast iron pot is a great thing though, and you can buy Dutch ovens cheaper than from Le Crueset (they call theirs just ';Ovens'; or ';French Ovens';)... e.g., I bought one from Lodge recently.


    Also Le Crueset has sales during certain times of the year, and sometimes you can also get LeCrueset items cheaper from big sellers on e-Bay.


    Not all of the cheaper brands of ceramic-covered cast iron pots are as good as those two brands though.





    You might want to save up for a LeCrueset or for a ceramic-covered Lodge, or ask for one for a b'day, etc.


    They are definitey worth having (!), but having a bare well-seasoned one should be fine till you do that.








    HTH,





    Diane B.
    It might ruin the seasoning, I'm not 100% sure. But to fix it just set your oven to like 200 and throw in some shortening or lard and let it do it's thing. I don't think it will completely ruin the seasoning though.
    It probably won't hurt the pot if it is well seasoned, but since iron is a reacitve metal (as is aluminum) you'd be better off using stainless steel, enamel, or glass.
    You should be fine, just don't bring it to a boil. Even if you have a stainless pan, it will work also. Actually any pan, except aluminum can be used. I also like to use white wine instead of the classic red wine because if you are serving to quest(s), the color can be discouraging. White wine will give you the same ending results

    What is the intake manifold has to do with making your car faster ?

    Ok i have a 1986 Cutlass Supreme,and i want 2 make my car a bit faster,but wat is the purpose of putting on racing manifold on my car ?What's the advantage ?What is the intake manifold has to do with making your car faster ?
    an intake manifold on its own will do next to nothing for performance, it will need a nice big carb sat on top to do any good, you'd probably be better off junking the cast exhaust manifold and fitting headers or both of course.





    The advantage of a better manifold should improve the fuel delivery and air mixture from the carb to the cylinders its all a bit primative these days but it works on the old V8's but you'll need a holley or an edelbrock 4 barrel to get any performance benefits.What is the intake manifold has to do with making your car faster ?
    Quiet down, class, quiet down. Here's the deal in intake manifolds. Their design has a lot to do with air flow, but there are other factors. If you have ever heard the term ';ported and polished';, or ';port-matched';, it is machine work that is done to an otherwise stock manifold to allow air to move more freely and smoothly through the manifold. The inside surfaces are polished to a mirror gloss, and the rough edges and flange areas are ground down and matched to the engine's so that as the air/fuel mixture flows through the manifold, it doesn't have rough or mismatched surfaces to cause turbulence and air/fuel separation. The length of the runners in and intake manifold is also critical. Short runners give you high-end torque, longer runners give you more low-end torque. The best things about a racing-type intake manifold are that it is more than likely designed for a specific power need, such as quick acceleration or greater torque, and it is probably much more precisely manufactured, whereas a stock manifold is a compromise based on overall driveability and emissions regulations, and you can bet GM is not going to take the time to port match and polish their cheap cast-iron manifolds. I wouldn't expect to see a lot of top speed increase, but you will probably end up with a somewhat quicker car with a manifold that has longer-than-stock runners and good port matching, gasket matching, and polishing. You may even be able to pick up a few horsies by installing a carb or throttle body spacer, as they have a similar effect of lengthening the runners a bit. Because you have a post-1975 car and you don't say what state you live in, you may want to make sure that the manifold you install is compliant with your state's emissions laws, or get ready to change back to the stock manifold every time you need to pass a smog test. Check out Edelbrock. That company has been around for years. I think Edelbrock supplied the intake manifold for Noah's Ark. Summit Racing is another excellent source.
    an engine is nothing more than an air pump...more air in more horse power...after market intakes adderess this issue quite nicely...more flow more hp...if you drive it easy you will also pick up a couple more miles per gallon...more flow equals more efficency.
    the racing intake manifold would be to get a better air flow into the combustion chamber but it probably wouldn't help much if that's all you did.
    I agree with grass. It's all about air flow in and out, the thing to take into consideration is match the manifold to your application. Slapping a huge tunnle ram is going to hurt more than anything. Match the rpm range manufactures give you to the cam you are running, if still stock look at 2000-6000 rpm no higher.


    Too large of a manifold will create too low of air velocity at low rpm and give you terrible throttle response because the fuel will not stay atomized and actualy pool up.
    your car basically breathers better - more air

    When making vodka cream sauce for pasta, how important is the vodka?

    Will leaving out the vodka make a considerable difference in the taste?When making vodka cream sauce for pasta, how important is the vodka?
    1 tablespoon butter


    1 tablespoon finely diced onion


    1/2 cup diced smoked salmon


    2 fluid ounces vodka


    1/4 cup heavy whipping cream


    1/4 cup chopped tomatoes


    1/2 cup tomato sauce


    salt to taste


    ground black pepper to taste


    1 pinch ground nutmeg


    1/8 tablespoon cayenne pepper


    DIRECTIONS


    In a large saucepan saute butter and onion with smoked salmon. Once the pan begins to lightly smoke, pull saucepan away from heat source and add the Vodka.


    When the Vodka has burned off, return the sauce to heat source and mix in the tomatoes, tomato sauce and heavy cream.


    Season sauce with salt, pepper, nutmeg, and chile pepper. Reduce sauce to desired consistency; serve.When making vodka cream sauce for pasta, how important is the vodka?
    I make this often, and though I have never tried it without the vodka, I am thinking it would make a considerable difference in not only tase, but cooking time and method....therefore making only 'cream pasta' which may not be bad, but not quite the same taste :)
    It's not. Vodka is what's known as a neutral spirit. A neutral spirit by definition lacks flavor components


    Some would argue that the taste of alcohol is part of the flavor profile but on the quality standards check list of any food cooked with alcohol , the taste of raw alcohol is almost never a desirable taste characteristic.


    The only remaining use for alcohol then is it's action as a solvent to extract the flavors of the aromatics and the recipe contains few if any aromatics.


    I personally believe that it is a waste of an expensive ingredient
    I tried a vodka cream sauce with a cheap vodka and it was awful.. I tried it again with Absolut and it was SO much better. The vodka is what pulls the flavors together. If you don't use vodka, you just have cream sauce....
    it is a waste of good expensive booze, why not use white wine instead

    How does information from financial reports influence business decision making?

    How does information from financial reports influence business decision making? Why is it important for business managers to understand the information found on financial reports?How does information from financial reports influence business decision making?
    Financial reports allow business managers to see current numbers compared to years prior. It will allow them to see growth or loss. It let's them know where the company stands in the ';market place'; and what percentage of consumer spending in that market place is being spent on that company. It also helps in forcasting - the fortune teller responsibility - the BM looks at the years prior and sees that an increase or decrease is approaching and can order stock more efficiently. For instance - a BM at Home Depot - he will look at financial reports to see when is the best time for snow blowers to hit stores in the New England area as opposed to the same item to hit stores in the Mid West. It also allows the producers of said snow blowers to see if they can take a price increase on the product in a given year and what time of year would it be best received by the consumers.


    Hope this helps.How does information from financial reports influence business decision making?
    Financial information are factual information on the financial results of your operations. Many important financial information may be found in those reports.





    For example:


    -management decided to lengthen credit terms


    management would necessarily be interested to know how this decision affect the companies working capital or liquidity position and if such decision increased sales.





    - management decided to increase selling price


    financial report would show how the market responded to the price increase through the sales figures , the volume of sales, and the stocks inventory.





    There are many ways your figures can work for you if you know how to extract the information. Financial information keeps managers well informed of business condition and them better able to make good business decisions.

    What is the deal on Sims 3 when your making a character and their bodies go off them?

    I use the Sims 3 regular one and I always try to make characters and their bodies go off them. My characters never get fat or musceled. Can someone please help?What is the deal on Sims 3 when your making a character and their bodies go off them?
    I don't exactly get the problem. Do the bodies disappear? Is this the first time it happened? Have you tried a lot of families?

    I really wanted to make a fat Sim :D and the torso just moves away from the legs!


    It was the same when my Sim was pregnant, and instead of getting a bump, the same thing happened again.


    I think it's to do with the requirements for the game, because mine is the lowest, 3.5 instead of 4.5 even though my laptop is quite new. But i'm not sure what the 3.5 thing was about :S
    I have the same problem and i think i know why(:


    My laptop doesn'tt meet the Vista requirements so the game thinks my laptop is XP.


    Sometimes when i turn on my laptop after playing it always asks me something to do with Vista. HOWEVERRR sometimes i don't get this problem and the bodies look normal?


    I haven't tried un-installing/re-installing. It might work.


    Sorry for not really helping(:
    many people have had this problem... if you look on the forums at the sims 3 website you may be able to find some more detailed answers... many people have said that it has something to do with the graphics card you're using. Check the requirements for your game and see if the game is completely compatible with your system.
    Incompatible graphics card. Pretty much going to look like that unless you try it on a computer that has a compatible card.
    Try restarting your computer and then get back into the game.

    Is making yourself sick after eating a takeaway or a fatty meal very bad for you?

    We all know that making yourself sick everyday is very serious and is known as an eating disorder, but what if it's just once or twice a week after you've had a fatty takeaway? Would that really do much damage?Is making yourself sick after eating a takeaway or a fatty meal very bad for you?
    There are better ways to handle poor eatting choices.





    Choose better next time.


    Workout the added calories and fat.


    Try drinking green tea and water before having a fatty food to trick yourself into being full so you do not over indulge.





    The problem is the habbit that is easy to develop from doing it just once or twice a week.Is making yourself sick after eating a takeaway or a fatty meal very bad for you?
    Yes it is harmful and will lead on to more serious issues .


    The thing to do is not eat the junk food , or reduce the portion , but as part of an overall healthy diet .


    On no account should anyone adopt this practise.!!!!!
    why eat the takeaway in the first place?!
    Yes it still does damage. It will wreak your insides and your teeth. Eat well during the week and have your takeout once in a while. Just dont over do it. Everything in moderation
    Yes, just once leads to twice, then 3 times and so on. Not a good idea. Either stay away from the fatty foods or admit you are a bulimic and seek help.
    Tha would cause serious tooth decay and would turn into an eating disorder eventually as you become more and more obssessed about losing weight. I wouldn't do it, try to eat healthily and exercise regularly. This is a much less harmful way to lose weight as long as you don't overdo it.
    Well you wont put on weight, and thats bad for you to.
    Yes it will
    Either way it's not right. Perhaps avoiding the fatty takeaway and stick to a healthy snack until the craving subsides. Everyone wants to be sick after takeaways, cause there ****.
    Yes. Don't fool youself into thinking this person doesn't have a problem. Alternatively, how about just not eating the fatty takeaway in the first place?
    making yourself sick in any way cant be much good for you.


    Besides, wouldn't you prefer to lay off or even give up the fatty takeaways so you don't throw up and/or just eat it less often.


    also, if you eat stuff slower, it tends to settle easier. When i eat pizza or shinese food i have to eat it really slowly or i get stomach cramps or a ';change of address'; card to the toilet

    When making an omelet why do some people leave out the yolk?

    What difference does it make if any?When making an omelet why do some people leave out the yolk?
    The whites make it fluffier...When making an omelet why do some people leave out the yolk?
    Idiocy - they think it helps slimming-wise.
    Thanks to the ';junk science'; perpetrated by some ';health nuts'; a few years back, the false idea grew up that the egg yolk was a source of ';bad'; cholesterol and if you ate too many egg yolks you would have a heart attack and die.





    Research today is finding that not only are eggs and especially egg yolks, the best low cost source of protein, but that the cholesterol produced is actually ';good cholesterol'; which not only doesn't produce health risk, but is actually necessary for maintaining a healthy heart and arteries!





    Eggs without yolks not only taste bad, they ARE bad for you!
    the yolk is the best part, I don't leave it out
    The yolk has a lot of cholesterol and calories. Less tasty that way too.
    It cuts down on the saturated fat, so they're probably on a diet. It would make a difference to the flavour - less rich, and it would be lighter and fluffier.
    The egg yolk contains around 60 calories which is about four times the caloric content of the egg white. Also it contains most of egg's fats and cholestrol and approx. half the protein content.





    I therefore think that leaving out the egg yolk wouldn't cause much difference in terms of taste but would definitely lower the calorie content of the omlett.
    my guess is that not everyone likes yolk
    These people are fat concious... Egg Yolk has fat where as egg white doesnt.
    Because they are mad!





    (or maybe they dont like the yolk), its all a personal choice and stuff.
    Do they? How horrible. The whole egg is surely the point of the omelette. A white omelette?????????
    possiilities..





    1.the egg is full of fat while the white is protein so its healthier


    2. the taste some people do not like the taste of the yolk
    From a health perspective, there is less fat, less calories and less cholesterol in egg whites as opposed to whole eggs!
    yolks contain more calories and more cholestrol, people watching their waists and health tend to leave the yolk out, its effective if all their meals are balanced but also much of the nutrients are in the yolk and yolks are the yummy part of the egg. Omelets are beaten eggs which are then fried and anything can be added to it like cheese or mushrooms.
    The big difference if flavour, there is none in a white omelet
    Egg whites are healthier. Yolks can raise your cholesterol.
    They're trying to reduce the fat and calories in the omelet. Yolk has all the fat in an egg. There's a pretty decent explanation at the link listed below.
    Perhaps the reason the yolk is sometimes left out of omelets is because they use the yolk for making ice cream and making omelets with the whites is the healthier option rather than making cakes etc

    How to apply mascara correctly on bottom lashes without making them chunky?

    I have very dark, long, curly eyelashes which everyone is in love with. Yet I like to apply mascara just to volumize it and give me a glowing look. Yet since my eyelashes are full and dark when I apply mascara (I use l'oreal telescopic mascara0 it gets easily smudged and it dries too quickly before I can fix it and it ends up that I have to clean it all up and start over! I need some advice on how to work on it, I have school and I dont have the time to go through this every morning.How to apply mascara correctly on bottom lashes without making them chunky?
    side to sideHow to apply mascara correctly on bottom lashes without making them chunky?
    first thing, buy a new mascara. Try a higher end brand such as Diorshow mascara. If you dotn have the money, get the Classic green and pink Mabelline mascara or Loreal Volumizing mascara.


    Get an empty tiolet paper tube, and with your mascara wand, take off all the excess mascara onto the tiolet paper roll. Squiggle the wand back and forth between your bottom lashes and viola!
    Try the new Uplifting Mascara by AVON! It has a bendable brush that is truly unique! And they work great!





    www.youravon.com/lngo
    DO NOT tap your eyelashes repeatedly with the brush...I don't know why people think it's effective, all it does is give sickeningly chunky looking lashes like Tammy Faye's were.





    Take a few seconds and do what the brush was made for...touch the brush/wand to your lashes and simply slide it down the lash and if necessary, underneath as well. I don't need more than 3 passes to get that whole bottom lashline. Don't try to LAYER the mascara, it usually just clumps up and looks awful. Just cover the top and the underside of the lashes rather than going over and over the top.
    Well you can try getting a new mascara that's waterproof, so you don't have to reapply it, or if you still want to use the telescopic mascar you can buy a make-up eraser pen ( by Revlon)





    i love to but mascara on my bottom lashes too, this is what i do:


    take you mascara wand and open your mouth to make an 'o' ( sounds weird but, it makes it easier to apply, trust me)


    gently wiggle the wand back and forth from your roots, and pull through to the ends of your lashes.


    or:


    smile ( like you want your cheeks to touch your bottom lashes) so that your bottom lashes stick out ( it sounds wired too, but it will make it easier to apply)
    Virtual Makeover. It's free, super easy and fun. It shows you how to apply your makeup and play with colors to find a new look you will love. Just click http://marykay.com/mgunther2
    I use a side to side swishy but downward motion.


    But I come from underneath.


    I hope that makes sense, lol.
    You should really get a new mascara.


    But if you're stuck with this one, then I reccomend taking a Q-tip and wiping it over your eyelashes after you're done.


    Softly to remove those chunks.


    Or clean the brush with a tissue lightly to remove excess before you even coat it on your lashes.
    I have long eyelashes too, and I'll tell you right now if you try to ';swipe'; it down your lashes you will end up pressing the tips into the skin underneath--hello, black smudges. I take the mascara and swirl the wand around the edge to wipe off the excess, and keeping my eyes open and still I go a little bit side to side. Keep in mind though that you will still have some sticking together sometimes, or where it pokes on your cheek. Anything thin can unstick them if you are careful, and invest in a makeup eraser for those underneath smudges. They can take off a little dot or two but I wouldn't use it for a bigger smudge because I think it would smear. The key is you have to go a little bit slower or you will end up spending too much time fixing. Oh, and when I do the bottom lashes I look up until they dry, and for the top ones I hold my head down and look up until they dry--but I don't do the top ones until the bottom ones are dry. Having long eyelashes takes a bit more work. Hope this helps!

    Where can I buy unpasteurized goats milk online for making homemade cheese?

    I don't think you can, not in the U.S. anyway. However, I do know from experience that you don't need unpasturized milk. Pasturized milk can be used.Where can I buy unpasteurized goats milk online for making homemade cheese?
    Pasteurized milk is legal in half of the states; the laws are set by each state. You probably won't be able to order it from out of your state because of this.





    http://www.realmilk.com





    To find milk you should seek out dairy goat breeders in your area.


    Talk to your vet, feed stores, health food stores, 4H, etc. to find local breeders.Where can I buy unpasteurized goats milk online for making homemade cheese?
    You should be able to still make the cheese, as long as it's not ultra-pasteurized, also if you can't find the milk your looking for try a powder form of it, I think you can pick that up at a health food store.
    I think you would have to go and buy some goats the do it yourself.

  • After making a starter, is any additional yeast required before pitching the starter into the wort?

    So I made the mistake of briefly freezing my vial of white labs belgian wit, though only for a couple of hours. I was advised to make a starter to ensure the yeast was still okay and to at least wake it up if it was. I'm getting suspension and CO2. Is this enough to pitch into my wort or is there additional yeast needed? I just read something somewhere that confused me and it seemed like the starter, plus additional yeast was required? Or am I just okay pitching the starter? Even though this yeast seems fine in the starter, how can I be sure it will last long enough?After making a starter, is any additional yeast required before pitching the starter into the wort?
    The way you describe it, it sounds like you definitely have viable yeast. If you want, you can aerate your starter (sealing it securely and shaking good and violently) to help oxygenate it to help the yeast multiply and give it another 12 or so hours before pitching. You can use other methods to aerate if you like (and have the means), but shaking it will do the trick...just be sure to let the CO2 escape or you're not adding any oxygen. The sediment in your starter may simply be the portion of yeast cells that didn't survive the freezing. This isn't so bad, they'll actually serve as added nutrient for the surviving yeast cells.





    Just remember, the purpose of the starter is to get the quantity of yeast you have now to multiply and establish a solid dominance over any other ';bugs'; in your wort. Oxygenation at the beginning is crucial to allow the aerobic multiplication of yeast. However, the reason you put an airlock on your fermenter is so that the yeast, when done consuming the oxygen and mulitplying, then turns to anaerobic fermentation and starts to convert your fernentable sugars to alcohol and CO2 (which, as you already know, needs to be let out). Further addition of oxygen at this point leads to stale flavors, yeast doing other things than anaerobic fermentation, and other hazards to be a possibility...particularly acetobacter taking hold and converting your alcohol to acetic acid...vinegar.





    If it were up to me, I'd re-aerate your starter, let it sit for a few more hours, then pitch. You shouldn't need extra yeast.After making a starter, is any additional yeast required before pitching the starter into the wort?
    Nope, just the starter. As long as the starter shows activity then you know your yeast is good.

    Where in the UK can i buy pectin for jam making?

    Needs to be a shop not something online as i need it today.Cheers for your help.Where in the UK can i buy pectin for jam making?
    If you need today then it would be easiest to buy 'Jam Sugar' which is available in any supermarket - this is sugar to which a standardised amount of pectin has been added.





    Pectin is only used at very low levels in jams, e.g. 0.5% by weight, and is also difficult to dissolve without lumping. Unless you're talking about making industrial quantities and have bulk weighing and dissolving systems, then jam sugar is the most convenient form.Where in the UK can i buy pectin for jam making?
    You should be able to find in supermarkets, I've seen it in Tesco. Look for Certo and I think it's in the aisle where the sugar is.
    Check your grocery stores.
    Use Jam Sugar.
    Ask for apple pectin and buy from Tesco or Sainsburys at 拢1.42 for 250grams. Price checked 30th July. Hope that helps
    Maybe Lakeland? I think they might sell jam making things.
    you can buy jam making sugar in the supermarket, it has pectin added to it, but if you can't find the jam making sugar, buy some cooking apples and grate them into your jam, they work great, as there is a lot of pectin in cooking applesxx
    IDK
    Boots normally have it,it's in the beer/wine making section.
    Hello, supermarkets sell something called Certo.It's in a jar about the size of a honey pot, usually by the cake making things.Lakeland's sell a lot of cookery stuff too.It's worth asking at old fashioned chemists too.


    http://www.certo.co.uk/
    At any supermarket.
    Pectin occurs naturally in ripe fruit - though some have low levels. I expect you know this. Otherwise - try WHSmith. The pectin is usually found next to the penguin eggs.

    dude controling yoru own erections is not soemthing we man can do at will. whatg you can do is. when your kissing her and get her close to you before your body touches her body adjust your erection to a side and thats about it yu can do, believe me she will get to like it





    have fun adn enjoy





    look one way that you can avoid having an erection while kissing is to mastu-rbate right before you get to kiss her but im not sure how long will that effect have on it so just try it
    ok do this, when you're making out lean on her 4 about 30 seconds then stop and ask her what she thought of it.. simple.. it turns ma wife on every time i do it 2 her.. btw you can't stop an erection from occuring because it happens without you even realizing it sometimes
    jut tell her u gotta ste back for a second and think about something ugly or you mom or something haha if you think about that then go back youll probably stay soft for a lil while after ... or keep some ice in ur pocket haha or wear tight pants nothing gets through tight pants haha good luck
    If you know you're gonna make up, put your wang in your pants facing up so when it gets hard it's point up not out
    Put a pillow between you?
    How do you know she doesn't like it? Most girls would be flattered.
    he has a mind of his own...just go with the flow
    Think about your mother, that image will get you out the mood quick
    just poke her, she might like it, unless it feels like a needle
    She likes it! If she says anything about it just tell her you wanted to get something straight between you and her. lol
    Every guy knows this...use duct tape when you do. Get a jock strap.
    There is a lot to learn about sex and intimacy, use your time doing this instead of making out, educate yourself, educate, educate.

    When do you throw in the scallops when you're making crockpot jambalaya?

    I know when you're making jambalaya with a crockpot, if you're adding shrimp, you add them(depending on what temperature setting you're crockpot is on) the last, say 45 minutes. Does the same go for scallops? Or do I partially cook them before I add them?


    If anyone can help me out that'd be great! Also, if you have an awesome jambalaya recipe ...i'll take that too.When do you throw in the scallops when you're making crockpot jambalaya?
    scallops dont take long to cook, I would do them just like the shrimp.

    What is the best type of steak to use for making beef jerkey?

    I 've had great success using flank steak. You want to stay away from any ';fatty'; cuts, as this is what causes spoilage in the finished product. By fatty I mean sirloin,brisket,chuck, anything that is heavily Marbled or otherwise requires cooking for a long time at low heat.What is the best type of steak to use for making beef jerkey?
    top sirlon
    I use London Broil
    I prefer top sirloin or round steak. It is lean and easy to slice, especially if partially frozen. In my opinion ground dried meat is not even remotely like jerky, even if it is smoked.





    Bert
    I have a jerky gun and I mix 1/2 game (elk or antelope) and 1/2 93% lean ground round. (The mix is because the game is soooo lean it doesn't want to go through the gun. The bit of fat from the ground round also helps to keep the jerky from drying out during the dehydration process.)





    I have found this to be the most economical way to make jerky.
    The best. Briskett is the best choice out west. And next is london broil. But briskett has better flavor and easier to slice for jerky.

    What sort of vinegar am I supposed to use when making cakes?

    The two most frequently used in baking are white vinegar and apple cider vinegar. White vinegar has a sharp, even harsh, flavor if tasted alone, but it is a very simple flavor and does not really stand out when used in a complex batter. Cider vinegar, made from apples, has a faintly fruity flavor and is quite sweet compared to other types of vinegar. It鈥檚 very mild and works even better in batters because there is virtually no chance of any vinegar flavor surfacing in the finished product. Cider vinegar is my top choice in baking, but I don鈥檛 have a problem using white vinegar, either.





    Balsamic vinegar is very popular at the moment and readers often ask if it can be used in place of other types of vinegar in recipes. The general rule here is that a recipe will call for balsamic if balsamic should be used. It can be used in other baking applications, but you should keep in mind that the flavor of balsamic vinegar is stronger than most other types of vinegar and it actually can show up in a finished product - especially if the cake is mildly flavored to begin with. Unless I wanted to play up the tangy flavor of the vinegar, or use it to contrast with a naturally sweet fruit, I would opt for white or cider before balsamic in most baked goods





    So either use white vinegar,apple cider vinegar, or Balsamic vinegar.What sort of vinegar am I supposed to use when making cakes?
    for a cake, use plain white vinegar, as a matter of fact, if a recipe doesn't specify assume its the white vinegarWhat sort of vinegar am I supposed to use when making cakes?
    Avoid using a malt vinegar and use a sweet white wine vinegar for better results. ;)
    white vinegar
    Jennybab, Libby is quite right, if it doesn't specify use the white.

  • How do you deal with the times your boss is making a idiotic descision?

    My boss was making a totally idiotic decision yesterday one that I knew we would all pay big time for later....I just let her do it but I sooo wanted to scream at her!How do you deal with the times your boss is making a idiotic descision?
    You send a email to her letting her know that you understand the descison she has made and you will get the team right on it and copy her and another manager just so they are aware and it is recorded that it was her decision not yours





    curtdudeHow do you deal with the times your boss is making a idiotic descision?
    Before I can answer that, I need to know if the eventual problems were presented to her? A calm presentation of problems that would probably lead to more money spent down the line will get more attention in this economic climate than most people realise.





    If they weren't, put together your concerns into a memo, focusing on the dollars, and ask for a private meeting with her. List your points quickly and succinctly and say that, if she wants more info, you'll be happy to put some more numbers together.





    If your concerns were aired at the meeting, it may well be that the boss has been told something that caused her to go that way -- and that she's been told not to divulge certain things at this point.





    If it's the future morale of your group that you see being imperiled, again, put your points down in a memo and meet with her so that you can discuss what to do to boost morale proactively -- rather than reactively.





    Whether it's money or morale, you're not making her lose face in front of other people at the meeting.





    If she asks you why you didn't bring up your points in the meeting, you can say that you thought it through after. At this point, it would be good to ask if she prefers the open discussions in meetings. Many managers are not comfortable with that, partly because they feel insecure; they are getting it from above and below and feel caught in the middle.
    You do not question her decision unless you know you'll get something out of it for sure. Just relax, drink coffee, read a book.
    My last boss was a complete idiot. Everything he did was totally stupid. I showed him by getting a better job in Cancun, Mexico. Woo Hoo!

    How many times will they renew a work visa before making it a permanent 1?

    If my boyfriend from India has renewed his working visa twice, will it be possible for him to get a permanent 1 in the end?or how do i go about helping him get 1?How many times will they renew a work visa before making it a permanent 1?
    Per European Union rules, one must live in a country for 5 years legally to qualify for Permanent residency. So at his sixth renewal, he can apply for PR (but he will have to pass language proficiency %26amp; in some country History/Culture test).

    What is making my door locks on my truck act crazy?

    Help! I have a 2002 Dodge Durango and all of a sudden the door locks started locking and unlocking on their own. This is driving me nuts! It doesn't even matter if the keys are in the ignition or not. Does anyone have any suggestions to fix this! My hubby called the dealership and they have never heard of this!What is making my door locks on my truck act crazy?
    the actuator could be failing. The actuator is what controls the locks. I had to get mine changed. It was about 200 dollars in and Chevrolet van.What is making my door locks on my truck act crazy?
    Kind of a process of elimination. First, disconnect the master drivers door switch - if the problem is solved, you have a defective switch assembly - if not, reconnect it and do the same to each of the remaining switches. Still not solved?


    If your vehicle has a lock controller module (locks when put in gear, for instance), disconnect it and see if it solves the concern.


    In the mean time, I strongly suggest that you remember to keep the keys on your person anytime you leave the vehicle.
    had this problem. it is one of the door lock switches sticking. sit in every seat an hit the door handle by the door lock switch.not so hard you get things to break but hard enough to get the door to rattle. the door that is causing the problem will act up when you hit the door. or rock the switch and see if on feels different than the others.
