Guest guest Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 Hi Rik, Look in the files, there should be two rather large files talking about the dangers of microwaves. Print them out for your wife. She may or may not believe but at least she will see that it is not only you talking.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 Hi John, My mother used to make a wickedly delicious dressing in the oven and of course the recipe was never written down. I tried to copy it the last few years to no avail. This year I'm searching through my gluten free books and such because I'm trying to stay away from wheat and glutens. If I find an interesting dressing or stuffing recipe I will surely post it here. Dolly herbal remedies , John Ybarra <deuteronomy2929> wrote: > Dolly, > Thanks for reminding me to order my turkey.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 <<<<< To combat the frustration, it is best to occupy oneself in some new skill or to further your knowledge in a hobby that you have acquired during your years on this planet. <<<< That is GREAT advice. I took up the shooting sports (IDPA & Bullseye) a couple years back. Hmmmmmmmmm!! To balance that out I collect paper dolls and make jewelry. :-) And, just recently started crafting (is that what it's called) herbal remedies for the few patients that show an interest.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 This one could easily be converted to certified organic (use sprouted flour bread). It is from Epicurious.com I would think you could substitute your own favorite dried fruit and nut for this as well. Janet Hazelnut & Fruit Stuffing 1 large shallot, minced1 onion, minced1 garlic clove, minced3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter3/4 teaspoon crumbled dried sage1/8 teaspoon ground cloves1/3 cup golden raisins1/2 cup chopped dried apricots1/2 cup dry white wine4 cups cubed stale homemade-type white bread (about 8 slices), toasted3/4 cup skinned, lightly toasted hazelnuts, (procedure follows), chopped fine In a large heavy skillet cook the shallot, the onion, and the garlic in the butter over moderate heat, stirring, until the vegetables are golden. Stir in the sage, the cloves, the raisins, the apricots, and salt and pepper to taste and cook the mixture, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in the wine and boil the mixture until the liquid is evaporated. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the bread cubes, the hazelnuts, and salt and pepper to taste. Let the mixture cool before stuffing the hens. To toast and skin hazelnuts:Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.Toast the hazelnuts in one layer in a baking pan in a preheated 350°F. oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are colored lightly and the skins blister. Wrap the nuts in a kitchen towel and let them steam for 1 minute. Rub the nuts in the towel to remove as much of the skins as possible and let them cool. - John Ybarra herbal remedies Tuesday, November 11, 2003 6:46 AM Re: [herbal remedies] Re: frustration Dolly, Thanks for reminding me to order my turkey. We have a local co-op that sells free range organic turkeys, but you have to order them well in advance. Any suggestions for a healthy organic dressing/stuffing?

Well he didn't hear me because the hype from the guys at work is always stronger than what little sis knows. So he went out and bought himself a microwave..and it now sits on top of our refridgerator...oh well. The only thing that makes me sad is that because of the convenience, and because I don't cook gooey foods that he likes, he sometimes chooses to have a frozen microwavable meal if he doesn't feel like going to Taco Bell or Arby's, or ordering pizza at night. I've tried to teach him to make easy salads or cook meat for himself and he gets angry with me - saying that he is not interested in learning how to cook. He is in his 50s and he has always been a big junk food eater despite seeing my attempts to change and despite the reality that our mother died from complications of adult onset diabetes. He still brings me dark chocolate, french fries and junk food sandwiches for me to eat...his philosophy is that when you are healthy you should eat anything you want. You are NOT the only one out there whose loved ones "don't get it" Rik. On the bright side, I just ordered my free range turkey for Thanksgiving. And since I get to cook, he's gonna be stuck eating healthy for one full day. he-he.Dolly Protect your identity with Mail AddressGuard Federal Law requires that we warn you of the following: 1.
