    Flop again.

    Bread, especially, is probably the most finicky of the baked goods. Any variance will reap different, and usually unfortunate, results..Just put more butter on it to help it slide down..lol

The pizza places display them on large roasting pans and you buy them by the weight..in a lot of places you can also buy some sliced meats like mortadella, salami and proschiutto, then they fold the pizza over and...

    Tips for holding a white sauce (for mac n cheese)

    Try it...just let it cool and then bring a scoop or two back up to temp..I'd go slow and whisk it a lot..you may have to thin it with a bit of milk, or thicken with a handful of cheese, but it will probably work.. Many restarants keep white sauce in pails and warm portions of it up in steam...

    Philly Chicken Sandwich

    One thing you can do if you can't find a suitable bun is buy a panini, sub or hoagie bun from the supermarket ad heat it up for a few minutes in the toaster oven..This will harden the crust..let it cool and try that..

    Petty Vents

    We do self check out at our local grocery store because there is never a line up..they have restricted them to 20 items or less..we rarely buy more than around 10 at the most because we live just a couple of minutes from our grocer store. I'm not crazy about Walmart and don't go there if I don't...

    Looking for a good Eggplant Parmesan Recipe.

    Another tip, If you like it a bit dryer and not so soggy is you can put down a thin layer of bread crumbs or parmesan cheese on the bottom before you start..this will help absorb any watery sauce issues..

    Linguine vs Spaghetti
