Welcome back.
:-)) Is that the road to nowhere? the one we can direct Obama to??
Seems to me we have a Dimocrat House and Senate and they make and pass the laws not the "Bush Administration".
McCain needs to get the message out that it is the DEMOCRATS who are in control, dang it!!!!
>>The Bush Administration has given us these high gas prices,the recession, high food prices..blah,blah,blah!!!!”
Have the Dems taken blame for anything?
I think the blue bonnet seeds will be ok for this fall planting. I’m sorry, I thought I mentioned that, but I probably suffered a senior moment. That’s my story. LOL, I planted them along the fence line, next to the 4th tee..the golfers will be beating them back. LOL
Thank you for that information, I’ll use our pint and 1/2 cup. Easy as pie. Thank you so much for the recipe. I’ll be making some the end of this week. I can hardly wait.
Snugs flour tortillas are just flat bread, when heated in the oven they puff up, then I put them in a pan with a damp cloth and let them rest, then I open a side and fill them with whatever comes to mind. They’re cheaper than pita bread, and my grampa came from Scotland so I follow his trend toward thrifteyness.
Poor thing, I know the feeling, I’ve had those days too. He just wanted to stay in the field or stall.
Hi everyone
Hope all are well.
Quite the scorcher here lately.
Someone gave me one of those easy set pools so Zay can swim this summer and he just loves the water.
Everyone here is holding on.
Gas prices are out of this world here, so much so that when they announce the “national average” I have to laugh because our little corner of NYS seems to reach the national average one week before the rest of the nation. As of today we are up to 4.13-4.17 depending on where you gas up.
That is interesting in Britain torillas are much thinner that pita bread more like creps I cannot imagine they would puff up but I could try it. We fold them and wrap them around food not split them.

Jane, I'm concerned about the flooding in c. Indiana and where you are. Okay?
We do the same here, snugs. When I was introduced to tortillas, by our foreman’s wife, I thought, “Oh big deal, unlevened bread”. THEN one morning I didn’t have any bread for toast, so I popped one in the oven to see what would happen...oolala, a huge cracker, puffed up in about 3 places. I buttered it, put some blueberry jam on it and it was wonderful. At 500 degrees F, it dries and puffs up quickly, I’ve burned a couple, now for lunch I’ll pop a couple in the oven for a few seconds, 30 or so and pull it out, place it in a bowl or pan with a damp tea towel over it and let it steam a bit, carefully slice a side and it’s a very thin pita. But I love crunchy, for breakfast, tortillas, semi-dry toasted bread, semi-dry pound cake, the pound cake I dry out in the oven, about 1 1/2 inch slices, then pop them in the toaster, the pound cake toasts quickly, then carefully dip them in coffee. Sometimes I have a mess in the bottom of my coffee cup, but who cares, there’s always fresh coffee.
Hello Nita. It’s good to see you. Sorry about the gas prices...we can thank the elected roayals, the IMP and the World Bank. But then...they are all well taken care of with our tax dollars.
I’ll bet Zay does love his pool. I remember as a kid..and even now, how great the pool is.....no snakes and no sharks.
>>Gas prices are out of this world here
Now that the world is liberal we can blame all the world’s ills on the Democrats.
Especially with energy. [Or anything to do with ecomomics, taxes, foreign policy, domestic policy, or governing.]
Hi, Molly!
Quite a weekend here. Yes, I am ok, but the rain was so intense my basement drain backed up and filled the entire basement (including the finished area) with 3 inches of water.
My sister came over yesterday and helped me haul wet stuff out. We made piles of trash, ruined items, and salvageable items which need to dry out. I am waiting for the insurance adjuster.
I am lucky. North of me in our subdivision is lower and those people’s first floors were flooded with about 5 feet of water. At one point 2 feet of water was flowing down the street in front of my house. We had water geysering out of storm sewers and cracks in the road! In the subdivision to my west they had to rescue people in boats.
I just can’t tell you how hard and long it rained, and how much water was everywhere. Our country hospital flooded, as did the Columbus Hospital 30 miles south.
We have people stranded in Prince’s Lake because the only road is over the dam, and it washed out. My county has lost at least 4 bridges, and there are numerous roads impassable because the pavement washed out. The roads in our subdivision have wash-outs.
I caught a bluegill swimming down the road on Saturday!
I am lucky, though. One of my sisters got TWO FEET of water in her basement! It is a real mess over here, and we are supposed to get more rain tonight! Yikes!
I read a newspaper acct. with your town's name, but it said "north of Indy"...I knew that was wrong, but it alerted me nonetheless...
Thanks for replying, Jane.
