I am super sensitive to anything bitter. Tart I can handle up to a
point but bitter is absolutely not.

Said the fellow who noshes on baking chocolate. Okay, I admit that
the fat content of the chocolate mellows out the bitterness a lot.

I was having dinner with a friend's boyfriend who considers
himself challenged in a way that I don't see as particularly
peculiar or rare, and I told him that, and he got a bit huffy
because he rather likes the status of being handicapped.

I don't consider myself disabled but the federal government seems to
because I have diabetes.

I've been disabled from a legal standpoint for close to two-thirds
of my life but have not been in my own mind until last year, when
I allowed myself to be placarded for the first time.

That looks okay, sort of like a riff on lasagne, but I'd
do a lot of things just a bit differently. For one, I'd
mince the onion and mince the celery extra-fine. There
aren't enough noodles: I'd double. Probably substitute
something else for the cottage cheese - more cream
cheese perhaps, or some kind of real cheese.

I agree on all of that. I've had lasagne with sour cream in it. Yeech.

You've probably had sour cream (and I blue cheese) in
far more things than we know.

... Never program and drink beer at the same time.

Although that would explain a lot about Windows.

return. She took that as proof of copyright, and I
called B.S. on that, too, which made her go off in
high dudgeon.

My mother is a published childrens' author. She told me about a "poor
man's copyright": for a written work, take an original signed copy and
mail it to yourself and leave it unopened. Evidently the official USPS postmark on the unopened envelope is legal proof.

That's been bruited about for a long time. Apparently it has
dispositive effect only when it's been sent registered mail,
which brings the cost up toward that of registering it for real.

I strongly prefer that people give as proper attribution
as they have the information for. Barring a serious
miscrediting, though, I probably won't say anything.

I admit that nearly all of my recipes have come from UDD, Jim, Bill, or recipe collections I've downloaded off of the Internet.

Just so you say so when you repost!

Thanks. The one thing I'd do differently would
be to use a sweeter and/or less salty filler.

I usually use unsalted saltine crackers for filler. Also good is panko.

Fair enough. There are a lot of starches and even fibrous
things that come in handy as filler. By the way, isn't
unsalted saltines an oxymoron?

By the way, I just had a Ritz cracker, and guess what,
they no longer taste nearly so nice as they used to.

Not-so-Ritzy crackers?

Not at all Ritzy.

In my case, with sleep apnea, I wake up more tired than I was when I
went to bed sans my CPAP.

So oxygen makes a difference, no surprise.

Title: Overnight Coffee Cake
Categories: Breads
Yield: 8 servings

1 pk Frozen Dough Pieces
1 1/2 c Brown Sugar
1 1/2 ts Cinnamon
1 pk Caramel/Butterscotch Pudding*
Stick Margarine

* Small package of pudding mix, NOT instant.

Sprinkle the cinnamon, brown sugar and dry pudding on top. Last
of all cut the margarine into slices and cover the top. Let sit
overnight and the next morning place in a 350d F preheated oven for 30
minutes. After 15 minutes cover the top with foil. Turn out upside
down on a plate. Each piece of dough will pull out separately.

That's an odd and somewhat cryptic recipe and perhaps
didn't deserve a credit. By the way, it looks sort of
like something that has been posted previously under the
name of monkey bread.

... You cannot kill time without injuring eternity.

Well, killing time is a metaphor and a personification,
but then injuring eternity might also be.

... Insomnia isn't anything to lose sleep over.

It is not so much a lack of oxygen that makes him more tired when he
doesn't use his machine -- it is the fact that he stops breathing for
times during the night, increasing strain on his heart and body. Those
of us who have apnea should *never* go to sleep without the machine. I
think that includes the majority of the men here in this echo.

I know that you are not overly fond of vegetables, but this recipe
sounds good to me.
