    Be careful with our bar!

    The owner of Abseits Rock bar has posted on FaceBook that the bar looks in tact from the outside at least. He is not allowed back in yet though. The explosion was so strong, that there were fires in the area.

    Every cloud has a silver lining.

    Cloud I have an expensive emergency to sort, about my apartment, located in Dublin. Silver lining I now have an excuse to fly to Dublin. As well as dealing with the emergency, I can visit some of my favourite haunts in Dublin, while I am there.

    What is your weather like right now?

    What Do you Do with Excess Carrots?

    You could make carrot jam. It tastes surprisingly good. There are receipes on the internet for it, so just Google. I first discovered it, when I went to Iran. It is very popular there. Mel

    Glass Cookware

    I had a glass lidded coffee perculator once. The lid could withstand lots of heat, as it was on when perculating the coffee. One time, I put it in cold water while it was still hot, right after perculating some coffee. Apparently, that type of glass is not supposed to be put in cold water when...

    Out-of-Date bread flour - is it bad?

    June 2006 makes it 6 years over the time you should have used it by. Seems like it should not look so good, or taste weird by now. If it looks OK, and tastes like flour usually does, I would go ahead and use it. I presume, you stuck you hands into the flour bag and ate what stuck to them, when...

    What's your heat tolerance level?

    I presume you mean heat, as in temperature, rather than spiciness. Temperature wise, I like my hot food to be hot, but not so hot it injures my mouth. For heat as in spicey, I like just a touch of spicey, so I can still taste the other flavours with it. :smile:

    What are you baking today?

    I'm baking some yellow and green peppers, stuffed with rice. I will make a beer and cheese sauce to server with them. :yum:

    Gross food challenge!

    My father used to have a vile concoction every morning, because he claimed it is healthy. It is suitable for a camping trip, because you dont need to cook it. You put a raw egg in a cup, with a few splashes of milk. The trick to consuming it is to swallow the lot without breaking the egg yolk...

    Every cloud has a silver lining.

    ''Every cloud has a silver lining, but you'll only see the silver shining, when you move your butt and stop whining! '' I love this quote, which somebody posted on this same discussion, which I also put also on another site. :)

    Vegetable crisp snacks - suggestions

    Deep fry a selection of veggies in batter, and make a dip to go with them. I usually make sweet and sour dip. You can make it by cooking sugar with vinegar. :smile:

    Things that make you go hmm

    Comments and discussions about conservative stuff that one would think would no longer be a point of discussion, with all the information available to inform people of facts. I generally have at least one hmm moment per day because of stuff like this.

    Everybody has a FaceBook account, by now, don't they? Do you have one?

    Would somebody also check mine, to make sure I hid the email address properly. :)

    Everybody has a FaceBook account, by now, don't they? Do you have one?

    Thanks Greg! :) I have now selected that only friends can see my contact info, so hopefully nobody else can see my email address now, except a few friends. :smile:

    Everybody has a FaceBook account, by now, don't they? Do you have one?

    Speaking of which, would soembody post here how I can make my email address on Discuss Cooking invisible to the public. I only discovered it is not hidden, when I got an email from some stranger trying to chat me up. The stranger is a woman, who thinks I am a man she would like to get to know...

    Everybody has a FaceBook account, by now, don't they? Do you have one?

    I've seen people post photos of their passport, with their full name and passport number on it for people all over the world to see, on the travel site I am a member of.

    Everybody has a FaceBook account, by now, don't they? Do you have one?

    I think, the entire internet has dangers for kids. If I go out, and my 11 year old and friend are here in the house, I disconnect the internet, so they can't just search for anything they want while I am not there. Today, one of my daughters 11 year old female friends came over here wearing a...

    Which mammals have you tried the milk of? Camel, pig, goat...?

    I tried horse milk in Kyrgyzstan. They ferment it, and give some to all guests. Even strangers are considered to be guests if they wander by, so I had to drink it. It isn't something I would drink, if I felt I had a choice. They didn't pull my head back, and pour it into my mouth or anything...

    Everybody has a FaceBook account, by now, don't they? Do you have one?

    Apparently, you can't delete FaceBook accounts. So, you can only deactivate them or something. Weird! Surely, people should be entitled to delete their own accounts... What I would do if this true, is contact FaceBook to have the account reactivated and then put a fake email address on it, and...
