Are you familiar with Google?

My thoughts on this, for what it's worth: If you have a question (or comment), anything at all, you should feel free to post it here with impunity. That, at it's core, is what this forum is all about. If you find the question "innane", move on to another thread and ignore...simple as that. Someone else, who doesn't mind answering (and believe me, those people are legion), will take it up and feel free to comment/respond.

Sound good to everyone? Good. Now, let's all move on...

Frozen Biscuits

Whoa...wait a minute! I'm gonna need the recipe for those biscuits.

Watching food shows for the chef, not the show.

I used to love the Two Fat Ladies...seriously...I'm not kidding.

Asking for "odd" amounts

I think you kind of come across as a douche, really. There, I said it. I mean, if this is what leaves you guys "flabbergasted", what do you do in the event of an actual crisis?

Down Home With The Neely's Dilemma!

Seriously?

Seriously?

Ina and Jeff?

Seriously?

Come on, guys. This is the problem with romance in America.

That is all.

Help.........need advice on making good fried chicken.

First and foremost, make sure you are using a cast iron skillet. Everything else is subjective.

True Confession is good for the Soul. My dilemma?

Why would you even get sushi if you didn't like rice?

From Talk

There Will Be Pesto...

Spread it on your pizza dough before baking instead of traditional tomato-based pizza sauce. Top with mushrooms, black olives, a little (very little) mozarella to bind it together.

"I eat your pesto pizza! I eat it up!"
(see, I got your reference, there)

What do you love to cook, but can't stand to eat?

I can't stand eating the Thanksgiving turkey after I've made it. Once you've had your had up inside that thing, the bloom is off the rose, as far as I'm concerned.

And it looks so darned good, too.

TVFN has a terrible habit of confusing the word "chef" with "cook."

Down Home With The Neely's Dilemma!

Another Foodnetwork classic example of putting people in front of the camera who think they are entertainers instead of teachers. What I have learned lately is that some home "chefs" have graduated from this level of questionable education and move on. There are so many good cooking shows on PBS (and a few on FoodNW). We need only point our remote control at our TV and move on to what pleases us.

Down Home With The Neely's Dilemma!

I have been watching the Neely's since the beginning. Overtime, I have found Gina to be far too anoying. I have noticed that Pat tries to tell some small stories about certain dishes, and immediately Gina cuts him off. I do enjoy watching him. I get the feeling that if he does not indulge Gina in her need for attention, he will have hell to pay. I love the recipes. Can someone just ask Miss Gina to tone it down, so we don't have to turn them off.

I think it's fair to say that all sides have had ample opportunity to express their opinions on this matter, so we're going to close the thread.

Simon - please contact me anytime you feel up to it. You know my website already, but I will happily provide you with my phone number and home address too. It's not a problem.

Come see me tough guy. Anytime! :)

P.S. - Adam and Team S.E. I understand you might close this, but I ask that you please leave my comments in tact. This person called me out -- and I want it on record that I answered that call. Thank you.

(in another thread where he was busy attacking people)

Simon said -- As for you, FastFoodCritic, stick a sock in it. I find the admonishments of a passive aggressive spineless weasel such as yourself, someone who takes pride in touting their affinity for eating garbage no less, to be laughable.
----------------------------------------------

I did not see that comment until NOW, when somebody emailed me about it. Adam closed the thread because it got ugly between Simon and a couple other people. That was of course the right thing to do.

HOWEVER -- I never got a chance to defend myself, and considering I was just trying to be a nice guy, and was coming to the defense of a lady who Simon was needlessly insulting in that thread, I feel I deserve a chance to say SOMETHING.

And it's simply THIS -- Dear Simon, it's quite odd to hear you call me a "spineless weasel" since you don't know me in real life. My name and website is public, but I see you choose to be anonymous. Let me personally invite you step forward like a man, and identify yourself. Otherwise, let me invite you shut your mouth and quit attacking people in this community.

Coward. You would never say a word to my face.

I registered specifically to add my desire for
Regal Crown Sour Cherries!
I had a craving for them suddenly and went online to look for them only to find out they are discontinued. I am sad.

I also want to add one more gone but not forgotten, but I think I may be the only person who has ever eaten this cereal:
Concentrate
It turned to mush when milk was added and had a great taste. I guess most folks like their cereal crunchy but I never did.

Back when Giada first came on, my then 21 year old college son told me it was "soft porn" and that he never missed it. His affection for Giada turned into a genuine love of cooking. She was never trashy or overtly sexual: the camera work and the pace of the show made it sensual.
