Place: KC, MO Comments: Sam- I'm not sure that this was the first in my long line of cooking mishaps - but I once burned boiled eggs. I forgot about them and let the water totally boil away. I'm listening to the Royals game right now. If we win tonight, there is a possibility that we can be a half game out of first place in the AL Central. If we could just erase our rotten April! The countdown is on! Eleven weeks from Monday I head for Aspen! Thinking of you, Don and Barbara - and your family, too. Love to all - Carol (Oh - and a triple rimshot for you, Annette!)
Place: 66erville Comments: OK, Sam. My family had a place at Cedar Creek lake. I took Glynda and the kids down for a weekend and brought a brisket to cook. I fired up the grill, threw in some wet wood chips, put on the brisket and closed the lid. Four or five hours later, I opened the lid and had a big crispy, black lump. An area of about 3" by 3" in the very center was eatable. Grills don't make good smokers. Went to town and got fried chicken for dinner.
Place: Big D Comments: C'mon Sandy, and the rest of you, y'all are telling me you never burned a meal? Just interested in your very first. You know Sarah's from reading my post. We still laugh about that.
Place: Richardson Comments: Now we're getting down & dirty . . . and Smiley hasn't even weighed in yet! LOL Glad to see some of you are still reading the GB and have a sense of humor . . . or not?
Place: The Woodlands Comments: Never compliment a senior for their flip flops.
Place: Dallas Comments: Or not.
Place: Richardson Comments: Annette - I've found almost everything is a lot lower these days!
Place: Woodlands Comments: Yeah but it's a whole lot lower.
Place: Calif. Comments: Annette, you need to get back on stage. Ya' still got it.
Place: The Woodlands Comments: I had a recurring dream once.
Place: Dallas Comments: Carol, I for one would eat your cooking. If I'm hungry enough, I would eat anything. Hey group, here's a good question for all, What is the first meal you cooked and burned the meal? Sarah's was a roast she tried to cook in our pressure cooker the week of July 3rd, 1969, right after we got married. She forgot to add water. It took a week to get the smell out.
Place: 66erville Comments: Gee, Carol, it is nice to be remembered and in your dreams. You are always welcome here and you don't have to cook at all. I doubt that you would burn dinner unless I was trying to help you. Party, any reason, is a good idea to me. So glad to hear Mr. Fugate is up and around. Never a doubt that he would do well.
Place: North Richland Hills Comments: Sandy, the 70th party sounds like a good idea!
Place: Richardson Comments: Thank you Mike for the update on your dad, Donnie Fugate. Good news all around! So happy it's all over and he is now able to start recovery and lots of PT. We are all happy to here the surgery went well and he is resting. Prayers will continue for a full and speedy recovery.
Place: Garland Comments: OK quick update on Dad. Surgery was successful. They did have to do 5 by passes instead of 4. Dr. said heart looked good. They took the breathing tube out a little bit ago, which made him happy. Feeling a little "achy" Hopefully he will be out of ICU tomorrow if things keep going well. Thank you all your prayers and positive thoughts and remarks, It means a lot , especially for Dad and Mom. |
