Hi Shawn,
RH> That sounds good to me. One of my cook books is nothing but cookie
RH> recipies, a gift from my MIL years ago. One of the recipies is for
RH> Hermits, a spice cookie with raisins and nuts. An option given is to
RH> sub out mincemeat for the raisins and nuts; I`ve done it several
RH> times.
SH> I`m looking forward to trying this. I will let you know how they turn
SH> out. :)
RH> I understand. We bought this house 10 years ago, thinking that we
RH> could build a garage with a bonus room above it for my sewing
RH> studio.
SH> ... or a ham shack. ;)
Steve wasn`t into ham radio at the time but I was doing a good bit of
sewing.
RH> The town killed that idea, said we were double fronted
RH> (corner lot) with not enough set back from the street on either side
SH> 50 years ago you coul dhave done it.
50 years ago Wake Forest was more of a sleepy little seminary town, with
some commuting to Raleigh. IIRC, from what I`ve heard, Capital Blvd was
just a 2 lane road (one down, one up) then; now it`s 4-6 lanes, with
plans to widen it even more.
RH> books, etc means a very full house. Nice roomy (eat in) kitchen tho,
RH> with a lot more storage space than the place we were renting had. We
RH> added a hanging pot rack, a butler (portable storage unit), other
RH> storage units and a couple of shelves to the pantry to store all our
RH> kitchen stuff.
SH> You`ve made it work. We have the worst designed kitchen ever, heck
SH> the whole apartment is not designed for more then a single person to
SH> live in I think.
SH> Lots of small rooms and narrow halls everywhere.
Sounds more like an apartment for several singles, probably none of whom
are serious about cooking. When we moved to Germany, the first housing
(military) we got in Frankfurt was a converted maid`s quarters
apartment. It was on the top floor of a 4 story building, first 3 floors
had 6 units divided into 3 sections of 2 units per floor. The maid`s
quarters were a living/dining room, small kitchen, toilet room, bath
room and 8 bedrooms--2 sets of quarters per building. The roof were
slanted so Steve and I were constantly bumping our heads, girls were
small enough that they were OK. These were temporary quarters, occupied
until permanent ones opened up (6 months to a year, we were there 13
months), had the nickname Army wide as "the bowling alley".
RH> Like sweet potatoes, we find it sweet enough without the honey but I
RH> guess it`s a matter of personal taste.
SH> We did it without honey this time. It was good, I just add a bit for
SH> that slight twang.
That slight twang makes a lot of difference. (G)
