Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
But I am scared of phyllo
I get the pre-made rolls. There are loads of sheets in each roll, so when I inevitably tear one (or maybe six) it doesn't much matter. And minor tears seem to disappear in the oven. It is a bit tedious to lay out and paint six or so sheets with butter, though.
The problem with cashing out annuities is that they usually had high up-front costs.
Ooh, Tep that looks awesome. I'd probably go full-on vegan for my brother's girlfriend if I were making it for Thanksgiving.
Hand pies!!!
I am thinking I should find out where John Boehner lives - I'm guessing it's some gated community in the deep suburbs - and go stand in front of his house with torches and pitchforks. You're with me, right, Teppy?
I've been thinking that if enough of us surround the Capitol with pitchforks and torches and don't allow any food inside they'll either work it out quickly or go Lord of the Flies on each other. Either way could be a win.
Here's the recipe (it has gotten RAVE reviews from everyone who I've made it for)
Thanks, totally gonna try that!
Mmm, pie.
That's really all I got.
I've heard that people should withdraw enough cash to last awhile in the event of a debt default. Some people fear the banking system might freeze up, which nearly happened back in '08.
Rumor has it (OK, Twitter) that the House GOP are about to cave on the shutdown. Dunno if it's true.
Anne, the Maple-Walnut pie:
Combine:
3 large room-temperature eggs
1/3 cup light brown sugar
2 tsp flour
pinch salt
Beat in:
1 cup maple syrup (I like grade B)
2 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup heavy cream, at room temperature
Stir in:
1 1/3 cup fresh walnuts (or pecans), coarsely chopped
5 Tbsp melted butter, cooled
Pour mixture into a pie shell. Bake at 425F for 10 minutes, reduce to 325F, bake for another 30 or until set.
Thanks, Consuela.
