on last time I used powders, my guess would be an
added cost of at most ten seconds using the powder.

True.

I'd rather dishwasher wash with no detergent at
all than one of the pillows.

We don't, a little goes a long way.

I'm surprised nobody has yet identified Dawn
as a major pollutant.

Actually, that's the one that's used after a lot of oil spills to clean
off birds and other wildlife that have been caught in the oil. That's
one of their selling points.

That is not an endorsement for everyday overuse
of the stuff. Toxic waste cleanup is an emergency
situation. I question, too, that the net effect of
using the stuff is beneficial at all. Do the
rescued animals go on to live a normal life
(doubtful), and what's the eventual effect of all
that additional cleanser on the local ecology (I'm
betting on negative).

---------- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.00

Title: Crusty Cheddar Bread
Categories: Breads
Yield: 4 servings

1 pk Active dry yeast; or 1 t Active dry yeast; bulk
1/4 c Water; warm, 110-115 deg. f. 1 c Cottage cheese; *
1 t Sugar 1 1/4 t Salt
1 ea Egg; lg. 2 1/4 c Unbleached flour; unsifted,*
1 t Butter; room temperature 1 c Cheddar; sharp, grated

* The cottage cheese should be the small curd kind at room temperature.
**
You can use up to an extra 1/4 cup of flour in this recipe depending on
the
weather.

Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water and let stand 5 minutes. Gently
stir
to completely dissolve. With an electric mixer, blend the softened yeast
into the cottage cheese, sugar, salt and egg. Add the flour in 1/2 cup
portions to form a stiff but light dough and let rise in a warm place
until
doubled in bulk. Butter a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish and stir the dough
down, then add 1 cup of the grated cheddar cheese. Turn into the buttered
dish. Let rise 30 to 40 minutes longer or until almost doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. and bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until
golden brown. Brush the top with butter. Source unknown

Hi Michael,

Has been, ever since the "women's lib" movement got going.

And of course the question is why not.

Because it seemed like a good idea at the time? (G)

If it doesn't become a Procrustean bed,
equality is something to be aimed for.
Inflammatory rhetoric aside, there's
nothing wrong with liberating every sort
of people to more or less the same degree.

But really, not a good [lace to discuss this so I'll end it on my part.

Idle speculation whether there's a coincidence
between dialects and styles of barbecue sauce.

Not that I'm aware of.

And of course there's Gullah, whose people I
figure eat mostly fish.

Probably so, that, and other seafood.

Goes without saying, the other seafood part.

Undoubtedly.

Wonder how many of their recipies have been writtten down and how many
just passed down as "a pinch of this" or "a handful of that" type
cooking. My handful would be much different than Steve's but if
proportions were all kept in equal ratios, the dish would turn out the
same for both of us.

possible. > ML> I've tried suggesting this, but people seem

I would think, with your vision issues, it would be an issue. You'll
just have to train yourself for better voice recognition, as one of my
blind friends in college did.

I'll stick with the tablets; they weigh a lot less than a big box of
powder. The weight factor is a big consideration for me.

Does it matter what brand is used?

This looks good but I'd use extra sharp cheese, whole wheat flour and
maybe a bit of mustard.
