I still have my copy... Just don't have all the ingredients
for them on hand any more unless I make a special effort to
get them...
I keep the ingredients on hand as a matter of course. If you
don't use the whole wheat flour very often, keep it in the
fridge for freshness. If you really don't use a lot of it,
freeze it.
I tried keeping it in the fridge, and it only took up room I
needed for other stuff... same with keeping it in the freezer...
If I were wanting to use it, I'd get it fresh, in a small
quantity...
I know the space crunch. Right now my flours (ww and ww pastry) are on
top of the freezer as the fridge is just full enough.........
The tube biscuits I liked were a special variety from
Pillsbury, that had no preservatives and only natural
ingredients... forget the name, something like Pure and
Simple or something wholesome sounding... (G)
I wouldn't know. We did find some Annie's (as in Annie's mac
& cheese Annie) tube cinnamon rolls in the Hanniford's in
Oneonta. Did see them down here in one of the stores but I
don't remember which one. We got a tube (very rare for us)
and Steve made them in the camper micro/convection oven.
I've seen those in our store from time to time... haven't tried
them...
They're pretty good for a commercial product.

As was the case with the Pillsbury ones... It was a white tube instead
of their usual blue... I'm still sorry they discontinued the line...
maybe we were only a test market... :)

I know pretty much what's in the fridge and the big freezer. Fridge freezer has odds and ends, plus stuff that needs to be transferred to
the big one. Going to save that project until after the big one is defrosted, hopefully some time in the next few weeks now that the
weather has warmed up.

They announced last week that the area where it will be going in, will
be called Midtown East. Said that the shopping area where it is to go

Basically so but I'm using a lot of stuff from the big freezer now.
Trying to get it down to a level where it can be defrosted and
cleaned, then reloaded.

Last night I e-mailed a quilt company about getting some replacement fabric for a couple of pieces I'd cut wrong. This morning there was an e-mail in my box from the head of the company, asking for my mailing address so it could be sent. Don't know if your turn around time would
be that fast but, you won't know until you start the process.

We had to take the Juki to Cary because that's where the repair shop
is for them. Same with the Pfaff in Raleigh. Some machines can be
repaired anywhere but the more specialised it is, the more apt to go to
an authorised repair place it goes.
Don't know how close the Juki place is to where the Wegman's is
going up. Stopped for a few things at Sam's on the way home and
had a not quite as cheap as the Shipp's cheap date for lunch. We
had pizza instead of a hot dog and split a chocolate frozen yogurt.

Were you dealing with more straight mechanical appliances then? With
the advent of so much electronics, I think repair technicians have
gotten more specialised in what they deal with. Pfaff computerised programming is undoubtedly different from Brother, for example, so I
want somebody who knows Pfaff to work on my Pfaff, and likewise, with other brands, especially if the machine/appliance is still under
warranty.

Fridges seem to be getting more and more expensive as they

Had a bit extra ground beef so just browned it up and tossed
it into the pasta sauce that went for another meal.
Waste not, want not... (G) And saved having to buy more meat
for the sauce.... :)
The sauce had a good bit of meat in it already, this just used up the extra maybe 1/3 pound we had left after making two hefty burgers.
Just made it a meatier sauce then.... :) A good use for the
leftover...

We take the garbage from the kitchen to the garage container often,
but do not always take the garage one out to the curb if it only has
one bag of not smelly stuff.
For the Fourth we had a small neighborhood parade at 10 am, mostly
police cars, fire trucks, politicians and scout packs. Some years
there are a bit more kooky groups formed to march, such as a Black and Decker drill team.
Then we had family and extended family and some other guests over for
a hamburger cook out. Gail made her potato salad, pecan pie and key
lime pie.
Had a bit extra ground beef so just browned it up and tossed

We had extra ground beef and Gail turned it into meat balls. Some
eaten the next day or so as spagetti and meat balls, and the rest
frozen for
future use.

Recycle would be our first choice in that case... :)
Ours also. We've often said that it's too bad that we can't
use the bigger issued trash can for recycles, smaller one for
other trash. But, that would confuse the collectors so......
Here, they've issued recycle cans (a different color than the
trash one) that are the same size as the trash ones...

We take it out weekly just to keep on a consistant routine. Easy to remember that the trash gets rounded up on a certain night, then taken

is up, they go out then. We also recycle plastic bags from (wherever)

And as long as the one armed monster can pick it up and dump it in the truck, use what you have. If the town/city/village etc says to "use

There's also a bear proof can sold. Steve suggested to the one
hardware store in M'ville that they sell them; they claimed they
wouldn't make enough money (the cans are expensive) to make it worth
their while. But given the issues the area has with bears, they
probably would sell fast, if stocked.

The weather that week was raw--cold and wet--and we spent most of time
at the hospital or nursing home. Did pop into the store briefly for something but not at a time when ice cream would have been a good

True... though we might have checked... maybe even bought
