Hi.
My intent was to drag some of you over here.:flowers:
Don't listen to Joe, feel free to join in the threads that have nothing to do with food.
I know you've got other things to talk about.
You too Peepers.:smile:

Thanks Peeps.
Depressed and other....
Can't say I am depressed, but I too have other things that I am contending with at the moment.
The cereal won't harm you. You seem to manage your blood sugar quite well.

There is a lot of salt free stuff out there if you read labels and look for it. I committed the big sin yesterday and stopped at McDonalds for lunch. There went my sodium and fluid so today it is veggies and no salt plus extra lasix. Wife made an omelet this morning and even shredded some carrots with all the peppers,onions and celery mixed in. All stuff from our garden and it was great. She rarely cooks breakfast but when she saw my legs she did not want me cooking for myself.:whistling:The maple sausage is still in the fridge waiting for me to cook it.:clap:

ladies,,,muleman........,I do hope I'm not intruding here.......
My mother could not have salt. Tough on her but I learned to eat with less of it than most folks. Maybe a good thing.

My wife has an allergy to MSG and I am low salt by preference so this sub forum intrigues me. As it happens I am the family cook.

Everything must be done from scratch as the MSG or it's derivitives can be found in almost everything prepared. From breads to soups to pasta dishes, anything prepackaged for microwave out of bounds.

Fortunately, I love to cook. Tonite, broiled chicken breast filets with swiss cheese, green peppers and mushrooms. All over angel hair pasta.

A Romaine,spinach and Dandelion salad , blue cheese dressing,,,,,,and some white zifandel.

All from scratch. Most of the veggies from my garden. Yes I do that too. All organic.

Shall I set an extra place?

If you are cooking I am eating. Just finished buttoning up the second greenhouse today. Picked some more tomatoes and the onions look to be coming along. Got a lot of stuff to get planted in there in the next week for fresh veggies over winter.

I dunno, Your pictures in post #1548 looked fairly yummy.

Hard to compete with the eye appeal of those dishes.

I used to watch a PBS show about a Maine couple farming with green houses. Extended their season two months on each end. Gave them five whole months to grow stuff (LOL)

Always made me want to move up there. Sorta.

I haven't the room here at the house but we have a large garden for our employees. City won't let me erect a green house so when the frost comes, I'll be limited to what I can produce in our "Florida room" at the house.

PA and Upstate NY has good soils and long summer days, but must get nasty cold come winter.

I have a good recipe for Indian frybread it's just kind of messy & I'm to lazy to cook it. But maybe I will get it in gear & fix it tonight.


2 Cups sifted flour
½ teaspoon salt (if you like salt you might want to use just a bit more)
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 egg
½ Cup warm water or milk (or both water and milk)
(I had to use a bit more to get it to the right consistency)
Sift first three ingredients together and stir in beaten egg. Add water or milk to make soft dough. Round up on lightly floured cloth or bread board. Knead lightly. Roll or pat out ½ inch thick. Cut into strips about 2x3" and slit center. Drop into deep fat (you need alot of fat or oil in the fryingpan so it won't burn I also added some butter.) Brown on both sides. Serve hot. Good with pinto beans, stew or syrup and is also good with honey. Frybread can also be used to make tacos etc. out of.

Beautiful work there Bill. Nicely done green houses.

Mine would be a bit less asthetic, plastic and PVC tube frame to start.
Down in Springfield MO, where our new ranch is, the weather is slightly more gentle in winter than Up State NY/PA so ground source heating will likely be our choice. Solar powered pumps for circulation, we have a small cave for sourcing the heat.

No pictures yet but big plans. 16' X 24' initialy covered in wire mesh to keep the forest critters out.

Meanwhile, your project has me inspired. Thanks.
