Yes, I will. There's also a vinyard in Texas that I will try. Another thing I learned is that we've been keeping our oil too long. After 4-6 months it starts to lose its quality.

Beanshooter, remember how you like that Black-Rasberry Ice drink just like I do? Well, I was looking at the ingredients and it has SUCRALOSE in it. You know, that's Splenda. So, I may stop drinking it now because of it. I don't trust this diet stuff. I just thought I'd let you know

I'll be drinking vodka and cranberry juice instead There's nothing diet about that drink

All those sweeteners substitutes are terrible for you. A guy at work lost his mother and two brothers to cancer. They were all hooked on Sweet and Low.

Yeah that stuff and aspartame in Equal is not good. Do you drink soda? I don't drink soda, haven't for over 7 years. Worse thing for you. (I do drink a Manhattan Special once in a great while though )

Nothing but Yoo-Hoo's for me.

Ha ha lmao. You know those are in my earthquake kit. I remember when my Mom saw them at the store out here and got excited.

Sure... a little slice of home.

And now we have a Dunkin Donuts in town!!! Just opened a couple weeks ago.

They have good coffee, AG.

Yeah they have good coffee. Ha ha um they're on almost every corner in Jersey lmao

What they did here in Cali is replace all the ice cream shops with yogurt shops. Dairy Queen is so hard to find out here. Do you have those by you?

Sure, DQ is big around here. So are Steak n Shake and Sonic.

We have granola

Sprinkle it over ice cream and drown it in chocolate syrup and now you're talking!

I don't think I'd like granola with ice cream. Chocolate syrup, whipped cream, nuts, and two cherries on top, yummy. Frozen Thin mints crushed up ooooooohhh good stuff too!

Cawfee tawk:
I accidentally bought the Green Mountain Breakfast Blend Light Roast coffee instead of the Nantucket. Oh man, I'm bouncing off the walls. That seems to have less boldness but more caffeine. And I only have about 33 pods left to go My hubby keeps telling me to settle down ha ha

There's only two brands I like for the Keurig, Green Mountain and Eight O,Clock. What was the coffee you told me about that I can buy online?

Thanks Mark. Maybe I should get overnight delivery

You're welcome, AG.

Dunkin doughnuts taste a lot like what we would get from the local bakery as a kid. Back then they had only 2 kinds jelly and cream. They were 5 cents a piece so you got 20 in a paper bag for a dollar. Then you can buy 2 loafs of Italian bread for 15 cents a loaf.

By the time I got home with it. There was 10 donuts and one loaf of bread.

5 cents a piece! Boy, you're old Just kidding. Good story.

I'm actually going to Dunkin D's today. They have a drive thru Yayy. I ordered a carulluh last time for myself, never knew how to properly say that word lol, that's how my parents pronounced it. Cruller is the correct word.

Edit: So, I went in there, ordered my caralluh and the girl didn't know wtf I was saying lol So I pointed at it and she called it a crooler. I don't think she knows wtf she's saying either. How do you pronounce that word?

A friend of mine turned me onto Middle Eastern cooking and spices, my favorite spice mix (so far) she introduced me to isza'atar, very good madethis recipe the other night

Try real Turkish tomato soup. I think the Italian food in Germany sucks. Their gravy sucks. So I buy it with out the gravy and take it to a Turkish restraunt I know there and let them put their tomato soup on it, and presto change o you have Italian food you can actually eat.

Got a nice little container of this magical spice about 2 yrs. ago on L.B.I.,,makes great flatbread combinations as well as poultry & lamb etc..being a Sous Chef by trade 4 about 25 yrs. now, I'm suprised it's just now surfacing among the general public..mediterranian cooks have been using this blend 4 hundreds of yrs.,,good stuff!!

@Foots

Will look up a recipe thanks for the suggestions

@Hoodlum

The person who introduced the spice to me is Iranian says her grandmother used it a lot, another one I like I am sure you are aware of is advieh

Please experiment w/ this sensual aromatic blend..put it on your home made pizza 4 christ sake ....u'll c AMAZING!!

I didn't even think of that, thank you for the idea. I was thinking just maybe cheese and tomato with za'atar, if you have any other suggestions please share!

Think Flatbread w/1.evoo,2.fresh chopped garlic,3.fresh grated havarti cheese,4.chopped exotic mushrooms,(portabella,porcini,shitaki etc.)5.fresh diced tomato(not alot)just 2 give color,& finally,a good sprinkle of zaatar &fresh ground pepper.

My friend just dropped off some pupusas this El Salvadorian lady made for her. They're made with beans and cheese and the other are chicharrónes con queso Yum, AG is very happy.

I like:

Faithful1, not sure if you still post on here. Hope all is well. I FINALLY tried one of those little cheeseburgers from Five Guys. Remember we were talking about them? That was a damn good burger. Yum.

Five Guys is good stuff, in the conversation for Best Burger. I like mine with cheese, grilled onion, sauteed mushroom, lettuce and sometimes BBQ sauce or A-1 (but never both).
