I thought it was win-win for conservatives.

Indeed it was a win, win.. however not everyone shares our enthusiasm, and thats OK.. I understand..

[christie]

Some of their safest constituencies, women, latinos, immigrants, moderates, union workers, and laborers, rejected the old Search and Destroy tactics, which have always been so successful in the past.

All of their dirty tricks failed...finally. They will never again feel certain that their smears and lies won't blow up in their RAT faces. Their smug arrogance has been dealt a wounding blow.

Davis, rather than feeling humbled by recall, defiantly sign bill after bill that was a slap in the face to the citizens of California. And he wonders why we collectively kicked his ass!

The radical of one century is the conservative of the next. The radical invents the views. When he has worn them out the conservative adopts them.

Only thing missing is Barbra Streisand singing "Happy Days Are Here Again."

Arnold Schwarzenegger's --- Apple Strudel

 

 

<!======================== End Mid Block ===============================>

Arnold says :
"They'll be back for more."

Preparation Time : about 50 minutes.
Makes 1 strudel.

5 sheets phyllo dough ( 19 x 29 inches )
1 1/2 sticks butter, melted
1 pound of pound cake crumbs
6 ounces cinnamon sugar

Apple Filling:
15 ounces sliced Granny Smith Apples
5 ounces crushed pineapple
5 ounces pineapple syrup
6 ounces cinnamon sugar
5 ounces apple juice
2 ounces cornstarch
4 ounces raisins
    Chopped pecans or walnuts ( optional )

Procedure for Making Filling:
    In a saucepan over medium heat, cook the apples, crushed pineapple, syrup, and cinnamon sugar for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the apple juice and cornstarch together, blending well. At the end of the 15 minutes, add the cornstarch and apple juice mixture to the apples along with the raisins ( and nuts, if desired ). Cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

Procedure for Assembling Strudel:
    Lay out a large piece of baker's parchment on a clean work table. Lay the first sheet of phyllo dough on top of the parchment paper, being careful to keep a moist towel over the other pieces of phyllo to prevent their drying out.

    With a large pastry brush, sprinkle generously with melted butter. Do not brush as you may tear the phyllo. Sprinkle a fourth of the available crumbs over that sheet.

    Lay the second and third sheets of phyllo on top of this. Sprinkle with melted butter, a fourth of the crumbs, and a fourth of the cinnamon sugar. Lay the fourth and fifth layers of phyllo on the top of this. Sprinkle with melted butter and a fourth of cinnamon sugar.

    With the remaining crumbs, make a bed about 3 inches wide across the sheet about a quarter of the way up from the bottom. Arrange the apple mixture on this bed all the way across the sheet. Using parchment paper to lift and pull with, roll the sheets into a tight strudel.

**Note:
    after rolling, make sure to crimp the ends so that filling does not come out the ends.

    Brush the strudel with the remaining butter and sprinkle with the last of the cinnamon sugar. Bake or freeze immediately. Bake in a 325 degree oven for 20 minutes.

    Remove from oven, let cool, chow down ... and ... YOU'LL BE BACK ... for a second helping of Arnold's Strudel.

LOL... :o)

[justrepublican]

Excellent.

This is a wonderful lesson to learn for the future of this party and the betterment of our Country. Most Republicans that voted, closed ranks with their moderate brethren, at the detriment of their political enemies, taking away a victory where defeat was eminent.. Pragmatism was not a sellout in this case, it was a step in the right direction in getting a place at the table where future meals are sure to be more palatable.. a little FOOD lingo.. but I digress...

The republican party is boiling frogs of a different stripe.

[NewRomeTacitus]

Twisted Sister's "We're Not Gonna' Take It" served well enough. Dee Snyder may ride this to a comeback of sorts.

Arnold's Strudel? The "Rock" had a bit where he possessed strudel but loved that pie. Watch for Dwayne Johnson to run for something ten years down the road.
