1:33 am

good morning all :)

1:33 am

puglet

Morning Sprite! HUGS

1:33 am

sprite

*hugs pug* How are you today, hun, and how is your sister?

1:34 am

puglet

We are all good and you and your family

1:34 am

sprite

not too happy about my girl, the rest of us are fine

1:35 am

puglet

OH NO, not having probems there are you?

1:36 am

sprite

nothing new, she is just so very tired and a bit too stressed. She looks like a raccoon, bags under her eyes. Had to pick her up from school yesterday because she was too dizzy to ride home on her bike. But she refuses to stay home from school. sigh.

1:37 am

puglet

Is there any off days coming soon

1:38 am

flosey

good morning sprite - sorry to hear about problems with daughter, poor dear, but you really don't need this right now

1:38 am

sprite

no, just the weekends. Waiting for the Xmas holidays. The smart little lady told me I shouldn't tell her to stay home from school, because.... drumroll... she had to learn to watch her own limits and there was no way she could learn that if I stepped in and ordered her...

1:39 am

flosey

wow, how old is this little lady?

1:39 am

sprite

hi flosey *hug*
No, I don't, but we don't get to pick the timing, do we... Just worried about her.

1:39 am

sprite

she will be 16 in february.

1:39 am

puglet

TEENAGER! could the dizziness be from not eating right

1:40 am

sprite

no, she eats pretty good. I think it is a combination of stress, asthma and being overly tired.

1:41 am

puglet

maybe she can recooperate when the week end gets here

1:42 am

sprite

I hope so. We reached a compromis... told her I will give her time until the end of next week, and if she still looked this bad, I would keep her home.

1:42 am

flosey

and possibly trying to be strong herself, so you don't have to worry?

1:42 am

puglet

I dont blame you

1:43 am

sprite

yes, she has a tendency to do that, flosey.

1:44 am

puglet

does she take a daily vit. Sprite? If not that might help a bit

1:44 am

sprite

she should... but good point. Will check if she actually does that or let it slip.

1:45 am

puglet

and maybe she has picked up that cold from you last week and its just not came out fully

1:46 am

sprite

possibly. Thanks. It always helps to share our worries here, doesn't it :)

1:46 am

puglet

yes it does for sure

1:47 am

grannyrose

back briefly. hey ya sprite. and pugs, and flosey

1:47 am

puglet

dont know where our Rose is--she was here before the flip and has vanished

1:47 am

grannyrose

lololol

1:47 am

sprite

lol... speaking of timing. Hi rose *hugs*

1:48 am

grannyrose

peek-a-boo...i see you

1:48 am

puglet

wha la and there she is! lol

1:48 am

flosey

aha, welcome back rose

1:48 am

sprite

pug has the magic touch!

1:48 am

puglet

I wish!

1:49 am

grannyrose

*giggle* still a little fragile here. but starting to think again. *sigh* head feels like it's full of pudding..

1:49 am

sprite

*hugs rose big time*
Small wonder, hun. Quite a week, you have behind you.

1:49 am

grannyrose

sprite teen girls ought to have a warning label on them...

1:50 am

puglet

what flavor? lol----hows that baby Braxton? Bet hes getting big too

1:50 am

sprite

don't they just! Smart mouthy moodswinger at full speed, approach at your own risk, handle with extreme care!

1:50 am

grannyrose

awww, sweetie, {{hugs }} to you too, *quickly adding* and {{hugs}} to pugs, and {{hugs}} to flosey

1:51 am

flosey

yes rose p BUT - the boys pay no heed to such warnings

1:51 am

grannyrose

pugs he is absolutely gorgeous. his mum and dad brought him over for a visit last night. very good antidote to the trauma of the day.

1:52 am

puglet

Sprite just try remembering when you were at that age

1:52 am

flosey

my posts aren't coming through

1:52 am

sprite

I let her 'win'... about the school thing... not because I think she is right... but because I thought if it mattered so much to her, she deserved to feel victorious over her mother for once.

1:52 am

puglet

You are going to have to put up some new pictures Rose

1:52 am

sprite

lol true, the boys only see the... let's call it highlights... of the girls.

1:53 am

sprite

when my MIL died, I was standing at the funeral with my HUGE belly full of Caya.

1:54 am

puglet

well Sprite it looks like to me shes going to have good work etics

1:55 am

sprite

she will, pug. It is crazy. We have to learn the boy how to act responsibly and the girl how to act a little less responsible.

1:55 am

puglet

what does the name caya mean

1:55 am

sprite

it is related to Gaya, Mother Earth.

1:55 am

sprite

I mean Gaia.

1:56 am

puglet

Is that a dutch name

1:57 am

sprite

no, not really. More universal.

1:57 am

grannyrose

i know, pugs. but it's been a tad difficult to motivate myself. once i'm home after surgery, will have plenty of time to do all the fiddly bits i haven 't done.

1:57 am

puglet

flosey must of lost her connection

1:58 am

puglet

I know Rose, youve been through so much here lately

1:59 am

puglet

the surgery is kind of a godsend--at least you will have to rest

1:59 am

puglet

How is MIL doing now

1:59 am

grannyrose

flosey just emailed me, she can't get any of her messages to enter the chog.

1:59 am

sprite

no pressure from us, rose. You take your time and will do it when it suits you. No problem. As long as it is before the weekend :)

2:00 am

sprite

I have seen her messages, though. Even the one where she said they weren't coming through. And the one before that about the boys.

2:00 am

grannyrose

pugs...don't start me....she has over-used a laxative, and now she is blocked high up in the bowel, with faecal fluid only getting through. grrrr

2:00 am

puglet

wonder if shes having bad weather over there?

2:01 am

sprite

omg poor woman.... and poor you as well.

2:01 am

puglet

Is she there with you

2:01 am

grannyrose

the smell is burning the hair in my nostrils....lol and don says his eyes are watering...

2:02 am

sprite

I can imagine. So awful.

2:02 am

grannyrose

pugs, she lives in our home, in her own suite of rooms. because the weather is warming up, she leaves the connecting door open....and the aroma wafts through.

2:03 am

rururocks

No shit granny?

2:04 am

grannyrose

exactly, ruru...no shit....at all....

2:04 am

sprite

lol ruru

2:04 am

puglet

I knew she lived with you but didnt know if she was there now or at the care center

2:04 am

rururocks

I am sorry I couldn't pass that entry up..

2:05 am

grannyrose

she's home until last week of january, when we will have our regular 3 week break from each other.

2:05 am

puglet

at least its not hitting the fan et

2:05 am

sprite

rose, how about when you have the surgery? You cannot take care of your MIL and yourself at the same time then. neither can Don, I think.

2:05 am

sprite

lolol pug!

2:05 am

grannyrose

oh my, pugs....roflol

2:06 am

rururocks

I can't top that one...

2:07 am

puglet

its got to come out some how---is she on something to help besides the pot

2:07 am

grannyrose

same as last year, dearest. yes i will be taking care of her, by phone or email. she and SIL are under strict instructions not to try and contact don on m onday. SIL has to make the decisions herself.

2:08 am

grannyrose

pugs, i have reviewed her use of laxatives. once she is unblocked, we have an action plan in place. just got to get her to poop first.

2:08 am

puglet

well it looks like SIL would step in to help---I know we are talking about fang--so that says alot

2:09 am

sprite

is she in pain?

2:09 am

flosey

aha, back again - that lasted all this time - chatbox was totally white - nothing coming through - or going out

2:09 am

puglet

you having bad weather Flosey

2:09 am

sprite

hi flosey, how frustrating! Glad you are back.

2:10 am

grannyrose

sprite, she has colic....

2:10 am

flosey

was about to give up for the night

2:10 am

puglet

Rose has that problem with MIL too-lol

2:10 am

sprite

poor, poor woman! Nasty pain.

2:11 am

rururocks

We didn't have anything to say flosey

2:12 am

sprite

you missed ruru being out-punned by puglet

2:12 am

flosey

no bad weather, just a little computer glitch I guess

2:12 am

flosey

oh dear, must read back

2:12 am

sprite

a crooked byte, flosey

2:12 am

rururocks

Hangs head in shame

2:13 am

puglet

sorry Ru. it will probaly be my one and only time

2:13 am

sprite

*giggles* I hope not! 't Was fun... from both of you.

2:15 am

puglet

Sprite have you looked at Ruru's icon? I love it! Oh and the pic you sent was so cute too--thanks

2:16 am

sprite

I love it too, it is brilliant. Oh, glad you liked it :)

2:17 am

flosey

do you realize how long those dogs have been standing in that lineup - it's been many days

2:17 am

puglet

brb--refill needed

2:18 am

rururocks

They're setters flosey :D

2:18 am

sprite

you'd expect to see one or more jump around with their paws between their legs

2:19 am

flosey

that first one must be having Rose's MIL's problem

2:20 am

sprite

lol flosey

2:21 am

flosey

I'm really going to bed now, goodnight all, 40 for tomorrow

2:21 am

sprite

2:22 am

rururocks

grannyrose

2:23 am

puglet

Night Flosey

2:27 am

joso

this is what you do rose, you get a single long rubber glove, past the elbow, vets have them if not hospitals. Then you hand it to fang, and say "you know what needs to be done"

2:27 am

puglet

lol Joso

2:27 am

sprite

lolololllll joso! Oh poor MIL. *snort*

2:28 am

grannyrose

2:31 am

grannyrose

groan....emergency root canal job for crossy this afternoon.poor left side of face is swollen twice its size

5:48 am

Lizlin

Big groan - but perhaps this will be an end to all the trouble you've had with that tooth!

5:49 am

crosshair

i hope so!was on the phone with doc yestteday and i said "i cannot go till dec 23rd this way!!"

5:50 am

Lizlin

I'm glad you did that. it was ridiculous for you to be in pain for so long, with nothing being done!

5:50 am

crosshair

my own fault of course.first order of business after this tooth is fixex and the left side is cleaned to math the right is a nice new wter pik

5:51 am

crosshair

match

5:51 am

crosshair

water

5:51 am

Lizlin

Sounds like a good idea - don't mess around with teeth. Toothache and earache must be amongst the worst type of pain.

5:52 am

crosshair

this hurts worse that when i got chunks cut off of me for my seminoma!

5:52 am

Lizlin

And that's saying something, I'd think!

5:53 am

crosshair

i have been run over by a car as well,and that is just a tad more painfull than this lol

5:54 am

crosshair

at least i got morphine for the car injuries:P

5:54 am

Lizlin

Well I really hope that after the root canal treatment settles down, you feel much better.

5:54 am

crosshair

ty,liz.i am sure things will be much better in a day or 3

5:55 am

crosshair

so,liz,hor are things down under? tis a balmy minus 10c here and snow squalls coming off the bay

5:55 am

Lizlin

I'm sure your lovely wife will spoil you til you feel better :)

5:56 am

crosshair

she is an angel

5:56 am

Lizlin

Things are lovely here. Beautiful weather this week - beach walks and tonight a jewish community celebration of chanukah in a park in the centre of town.

5:57 am

crosshair

very nice:)

5:57 am

Lizlin

Temps of about 27 C!

5:57 am

crosshair

lol,nice swimming weather

5:57 am

Lizlin

Don't know how you cope with such cold temps for so much of the year.

5:57 am

Lizlin

Yes, we did go swimming this afternoon!

5:57 am

Lizlin

Water matched the air temp!

5:58 am

crosshair

it is all aclimatization,liz.i can at need, work in minus 40c all day,but get me over there with you when it is 40c and i am ready for the hospital

5:59 am

crosshair

i start falling apart at 35 c and become one big heat rash

5:59 am

Lizlin

Thankfully it never gets to 40 C here. Average about 30 in the summer. Can be humid but fans and air con deal with that. And there's always a sea breeze at the beach.

6:00 am

crosshair

i do not know how my brother endure Nevada.was 114 for an entire month for him last summer

6:00 am

Lizlin

It's funny how quickly you acclimatise. I find it cold here in temps that I'd never have thought cold in the UK. But I guess it's partly because we don't have central heating!

6:01 am

Lizlin

OMG! Just went to a site to convert 114 into C! That's 45 C! I also don't know how your brother coped with that!

6:01 am

crosshair

it is insane there in summer ,liz!! he tells me that the low humidity helps(often less than 10%)

6:03 am

Lizlin

I guess that would help. I've been on holiday to Turkey and it was a hot dry heat there - as long as we drank loads of water, the temperature was manageable!

6:04 am

crosshair

this grid looks like it is going to be evil

6:04 am

o-o

Nah .. easy grid

6:05 am

Lizlin

I listed earlier than I often do! I had about 80 left! Now down to 64 but I'll leave some for tomorrow!

Life n. A spiritual pickle preserving the body from decay. We live in daily apprehension of its loss; yet when lost it is not missed. The question, “Is life worth living?” has been much discussed; particularly by those who think it is not, many of whom have written at great length in support of their view and by careful observance of the laws of health enjoyed for long terms of years the honors of successful controversy. “Life’s not worth living, and that’s the truth,”
Carelessly caroled the golden youth.
In manhood still he maintained that view
And held it more strongly the older he grew.
When kicked by a jackass at eighty-three,
“Go fetch me a surgeon at once!” cried he. Han Soper

It's important to accept that we create the world we live in. When we cultivate compassion instead of turning cynical, we feel better. We feel closer to the people we care about and more fulfilled within ourselves. By being open and understanding, we relieve ourselves of our own destructive attitudes, and we draw out the best in those around us.

All the kids at school say they want to be treated like they treat others, then I show them how they are treating me as a sub. Then we talk about treating people with respect in the face of disrespect. That is the most powerful action they can take against the disrespect they will most likely get from a lot of teachers.

8:50 am

bichon

Mom is almost 90.

8:51 am

Scrabbler

Yes, the Tdap is needed for all adults to boost our immunity to pertussis.

8:52 am

Scrabbler

8:52 am

hurshy

8:55 am

Scrabbler

No, she hasn't even seen a doctor in 25 or more years, She distrusts doctor. Doesn't want a mammogram, colonscopy, meds, etc.

8:55 am

Scrabbler

I needed that, so TY, Jindigo

8:56 am

bichon

And even if you did give her medical advice, would she follow it.

9:01 am

bichon

My d.i.l. has the same problem

9:01 am

Scrabbler

She gets her medical knowledge from Reader's Digest and the newspaper.

9:02 am

hurshy

not sufficient?

9:02 am

bichon

Yes, and the "People's Pharmacy".

9:03 am

Scrabbler

She loves the People's Pharmacy and listens to their radio show. That fuels her distrust of doctors.

9:03 am

I do better in the morning, Haz, and definitely deteriorate in the evening.

9:38 am

ty, I'll look

9:38 am

Anniebrook

thanks Haz

9:38 am

Scrabbler

nrkii excels day after day

9:39 am

Scrabbler

Mom Scrabbler is talking to me on the phone. She is talking about how her feet are growing and her winter boots feel tight.

9:39 am

Haz1558

I know. I'd love to know how much time affects the score - top letters I'm always racing against the clock and maybe I'd be better taking my time.

9:40 am

Scrabbler

Triplet Scramble is my toughest--I just don't grasp the need for word order.

9:41 am

Haz1558

I don't always do it, I must admit and I tend to leave honeycomb alone as well.

9:41 am

Scrabbler

HoneyComb is maddening but I give it a try everyday anyway. I don't try too hard or I go crazy.

9:42 am

Scrabbler

My favorites = Top Letters and WordBuilder

9:42 am

Haz1558

And my favourites are Speed Phrase and In and Out.

9:43 am

Scrabbler

Interesting. And I too frequently screw up QP itself and then quit it.

9:44 am

Haz1558

It's surprisingly easy to make wrong assumptions on it, isn't it? Or to hit the wrong key and oops, you get an inaccuracy hit.

9:45 am

Scrabbler

Yes, and I learned that as soon as you make a mistake your score plummets, so I see no point in continuing after making an error.\

9:45 am

Haz1558

Sometimes I just want to see what the quotation is so I persist!

9:47 am

Scrabbler

Yes, I will finish puzzles but not submit lousy scores.

9:47 am

Haz1558

Do you think all the others are busy trying out QP? They've gone awfully quiet.

9:48 am

Scrabbler

I think they are all paying to join QP. Aloy and Bichon and our other Babble Buddies will excel.

9:48 am

Haz1558

Goodness, more people to try and beat!

9:49 am

Haz1558

You can probably claim commission from the site - you were the one to mention it first.

9:49 am

Scrabbler

nrkii invited me 4 yrs ago.

9:50 am

Haz1558

I definitely remember hearing about it on babble, but I can't remember who mentioned it.

9:52 am

Scrabbler

OK, my mother has said goodbye and I must get ready to drive 45 minutes to get her and my sister. We are going out for Thanksgiving lunch.

9:52 am

Scrabbler

Gotta get ready now.

9:52 am

Haz1558

I'm going to head out for a walk with Dempsey. Enjoy your lunch, Scrabbler.

9:53 am

Aloyisius

sounds like a lot of fun ! I'd rather not get addicted to another cyber- activity.. Babble and Facebook and email take a chunk of time each day, but I enjoy them all

9:53 am

Aloyisius

bye Haz, bye Scrabbler.. have to also scoot but hope to bbs..

9:53 am

Haz1558

It is fun, Aloy, but it doesn't take up a huge amount of time. Some of the games are timed so you're under pressure to finish quickly. I enjoy the site a lot.

9:54 am

Haz1558

Have a good day, Aloy - *gone*

9:54 am

Aloyisius

ah, good, Haz, ty!

9:54 am

Scrabbler

Aloy, QP takes just 10-15 min daily and really challenge the brain.

9:54 am

Aloyisius

will check it out, Scrabbs, ty.. happy TD !

9:55 am

Truly I can always count on the QP games to wake up my brain everyday.

12:48 pm

harpjane

are you feeding the entire coast guard?

12:49 pm

Jillyjill

No, just we potluck it with the Giggars, and my hubby insists on lots of turkey leftovers.

12:50 pm

Plus I boil the carcass for broth. Made 9 quarts last year, used the last one to make stuffing for today!

Uneaixoise

I'm there! LOL

12:54 pm

Jillyjill

We must have done this for 20+ years. When both of us realized we cooked all day, then went to work the next day, we pulled resources together. Then everyone comes over on Friday night for leftovers.

12:54 pm

Uneaixoise

sounds fantastic!

12:56 pm

harpjane

I decided this year, to start a Thanksgiving Day log. Who came to dinner, who was youngest, who was oldest, who was newest, and what each of those three has to be thankful for. It will be fun to look at over the years.

12:57 pm

Jillyjill

Great idea...if we'd done that 20 years ago...wow, what a legacy that would have been!

12:57 pm

Uneaixoise

great idea, harp

12:58 pm

I know, it's never too late to start! Our "kids" table is now, anyone under the age of 55!

Glad the cooking made you feel good.

3:33 pm

phandmd

I made a slew of Mashed potatoes for the dinner our neighborhood provided to our local firehouse. Baked a Pumpkin pie from a fresh pumpkin and roasted the seeds. That is the extent of my cooking.

72 Temple Owl

well that is a lot. i made a pe as well but put a cookie sheet under it and it refused to cook. well see in a few hours how it is.

3:40 pm

72 Temple Owl

3:42 pm

phandmd

no. I just use cinnamon, allspice, ginger, and nutmeg.

3:44 pm

72 Temple Owl

i made my own pumpkin pie spice with few cloves, i often use the lighter spicing of the custard in my pies. for christmas, walnut sour creram pie and chess pie!

3:44 pm

phandmd

9:17 pm

welki

... and pass the shortbread, please :)

9:18 pm

dianedecoder

ha ha,.... not too bad welki !! And.... shortbread is in the freezer. I make several more batches and keep adding until the container is FULL .

9:19 pm

welki

i hope our American friends had a wonderful and reflective Thanksgiving (my favorite holiday)

9:19 pm

dianedecoder

they are "piddly" to do and don't make many at a time, but they are worh it!

9:19 pm

penquis

thanks...i wasn't feeling well, so i stayed home alone...quiet day....

9:19 pm

welki

shortbread can be tricky

9:20 pm

dianedecoder

I enjoy Thanksgiving too

9:21 pm

welki

don't know how important Thanksgiving is to you, diane, but from what i've experienced up here, Thanksgiving is a much bigger deal down below

9:22 pm

welki

here, people even have their thanksgiving dinners the sunday before thanksgiving - that doesn't fly in the states (except in extreme circumstances)

9:22 pm

welki

(course, it helps that thanksgiving is always on a thursday and most people either have the friday off, or take the friday off)

9:23 pm

dianedecoder

Yes.... it seems to be. We don't have the buildup , including Black Friday, but it is important to our family. We do have our dinner usually on the Sunday, to allow the the travellers to get home on the Monday.

9:24 pm

welki

black friday means the same to me as boxing day - absolutely nothing :)

9:25 pm

penquis

means nothing to me either...just a reminder to finish up my shopping....but i avoid shopping on Black Friday....too many people...

9:26 pm

dianedecoder

same here ! I "accidentally" experienced IT the year we went to Arizona early. I just wanted a few things at Joann fabric and craft store. I could NOT believe the lineups.... we left and came back the next week !

9:27 pm

welki

pen, i avoid shopping all year

9:27 pm

phandmd

I was not planning on going shopping tomorrow, but I have unexpected guests coming on Saturday that if I shop tomorrow, I can avoid having to ship my gifts...

9:27 pm

dianedecoder

I don't shop on boxing day either, but my girls and granddaughters love the "rush".... I just stay home and enjoy the quiet house!

9:30 pm

dianedecoder

welki.... I loved your nurse's Christmas tree.... I copied it and sent it to my daughter :-)

9:31 pm

welki

one of my daughter's is a nurse, too

9:32 pm

phandmd

I would like to see that...

9:32 pm

dianedecoder

My youngest one is.... she's 41.

9:40 pm

I just copied and pasted that info and added it to my document of "useful and helpful hints"

9:41 pm

welki

i have a notebook like that - truth be told, i don't know what half the things i copied into it are anymore

9:42 pm

dianedecoder

But.... they're there, just in case you ever need them, right ? ;-)

9:43 pm

Also, my "favourites" list is a mile long and many of them obsolete. That housecleaning job is one of my projects for when we are down south!

11:13 pm

Aloyisius

hi Jilly

11:13 pm

Jillyjill

And thanks for the 'grats' aloy...

11:13 pm

grannyrose

aloy, it is a hollowed out branch from a tree, our indigenous people play them as a musical instrument.

11:14 pm

joso

hey jilly, aloy, happy tnx day to you two

11:14 pm

Aloyisius

yes.. and there is a day to celebrate that instrument?

11:14 pm

Aloyisius

howdy joso, ty

11:14 pm

grannyrose

hey ya jilly. and there is a special way of playing it, using what is called circular breathing.

11:14 pm

Jillyjill

Still in a half turkey coma...

11:14 pm

grannyrose

aloy, naughty joso is being facetious.

11:15 pm

joso

only in my mind aloy

11:15 pm

Aloyisius

lol, I have always been gullible!

11:15 pm

Jillyjill

It's quite the interesting instrument whether or not it has it's own day!

11:16 pm

Aloyisius

hook, line and sinker as the old saying goes

11:16 pm

joso

it's a great instrument though, a unique and haunting sound

11:16 pm

grannyrose

darned hard to play though.

11:20 pm

joso

someone should make a band of odd ball instruments, the Didgeridoo, the feramin, the saw, the kazoo, the bagpipes, washtub bass,

11:20 pm

Aloyisius

the feramin? newbie to me

11:21 pm

joso

sheldon plays it

11:21 pm

dcseain

theramin, not feramin

11:21 pm

dcseain

they're fun to play.

11:21 pm

dcseain

hey yall. Hope the US peeps had a good Thanksgivukkah. :)

11:22 pm

Jillyjill

feramin even more eerie than a didgeridoo

11:23 pm

Jillyjill

θɛrəmɪn by translation...could go f or th

11:24 pm

Aloyisius

well, fw here .. off to look up theramin.. hope you all had a great Thanksgiving too. We were blessed to be with our 3wk old grandson, lots of cuddle time.. poof for now

11:24 pm

dcseain

English standard is theramin.

11:24 pm

dcseain

g'night aloy :)

11:24 pm

Jillyjill

Thanks DC...what did you have to replace a turkey today?

11:24 pm

Jillyjill

WooT WooT WooT aloy....

11:25 pm

joso

congrats aloy

11:25 pm

dcseain

replace? nothing :) I had roasted root vegies and broccoli and latkes and mashed potatos and dressing and wine.

11:27 pm

Jillyjill

sounds yummy...I only recently discovered the joys of roasting vegies....

11:28 pm

dcseain

braising and roasting really are the nicest way to cook veggies in my view.

11:29 pm

Jillyjill

So much flavor and releases all the sugars in them. Don't think I will ever boil a beet again!

11:29 pm

harpjane

hi

11:30 pm

Jillyjill

hi harp...want any turkey...LOL!

11:30 pm

harpjane

the key to cooking beets is to cook them whole. don't cut them until they are cooked. this retains the juices

11:31 pm

dcseain

and roast beets, don't boil them.

11:31 pm

Jillyjill

Think ya gotta cut them up when roasting...

11:32 pm

Jillyjill

Even my hubby liked them roasted...

11:32 pm

dcseain

nope. Poke with a fork, wrap in foil, peel when cool enough to handle. :) Rub with oil before wrapping if you wish.

11:32 pm

Jillyjill

Good advice

11:32 pm

Jillyjill

I did a yam in rosemary cream sauce. No leftovers..darn it!

11:34 pm
