  1. These days a $5 charge would be lenient.
  2. What I remember (?!?!?) of 000 flour is that it’s used in pastas and is hard to work. I don’t see 000 on line, 00 and 0000 but no 000. I’d use AP, not pastry flour.
  3. Story was that after a long struggle the roo got away.
  4. Putin needed something to blame on Russia’s enemies, even if FSB knew about it, he needed it to happen.
  5. Let me try to answer. Really could not figure what the real question was. you write me a check with insuf. Funds. I try to deposit it. No good! my bank whacks me $30 and bounces the check. Then I suspect your bank will collect a fee from you too. as I understand it, the actual paper never moves anymore for domestic banks.
  6. Mr. Bear and Mr. Rabbit live in the same forest, but they don't like each other. One day, they come across a golden frog who offers them three wishes each. Mr. Bear wishes that all the other bears in the forest were female. Mr. Rabbit wishes for a crash helmet. Mr. Bear's second wish is that all the bears in the neighboring forests were female as well. Mr. Rabbit wishes for a motorcycle. Mr. Bear's final wish is that all the other bears in the world were female, leaving him the only male bear in the world. Mr. Rabbit revs the engine of his motorcycle and says, "I wish that Mr. Bear was gay!" and rides off.
  7. 1942. Norway was in the second year of Nazi occupation with a puppet prime minister in place. New orders arrived - all teachers were to pledge loyalty to the Nazis, join the Nazi national teachers union, and indoctrinate their students accordingly. Parents protested by the thousands, but teachers did something quite remarkable. They refused. Simply refused. The government responded by closing schools and withholding the salaries of 10,000 teachers. Many teachers responded courageously by teaching in their homes. The Nazi retaliation was brutal. Teachers were arrested and sent in freezing cattle cars to concentration camps. Ignoring the danger, Norwegians gathered along the tracks as they passed, singing and offering gifts of food. The teachers were starved, forced to crawl through snow and endured nighttime marches where they were viciously beaten. Incredibly, months of such treatment did not break their spirits, and they were finally returned to their homes and their newly reopened schools. What incredible bravery in the face of ultimate evil! Thank you teachers for your incredible example! I salute you.
  8. One local chain send dayold baked goods to the soup kitchen. The other chain sells discounted goods.
  9. Billy Graham told this story…. "I'm reminded today of Albert Einstein, the great physicist who this month has been honored by Time magazine as the Man of the Century. Einstein was once traveling from Princeton on a train, when the conductor came down the aisle, punching the tickets of every passenger. When he came to Einstein, Einstein reached in his vest pocket. He couldn't find his ticket, so he reached in his trouser pockets. It wasn't there.He looked in his briefcase but couldn't find it. Then he looked in the seat beside him. He still couldn't find it. "The conductor said, “Dr. Einstein, I know who you are. We all know who you are. I'm sure you bought a ticket. Don't worry about it.” Einstein nodded appreciatively. The conductor continued down the aisle punching tickets. As he was ready to move to the next car,he turned around and saw the great physicist down on his hands and knees looking under his seat for his ticket. "The conductor rushed back and said, 'Dr. Einstein, Dr. Einstein, don't worry, I know who you are; no problem. You don't need a ticket. I'm sure you bought one.' Einstein looked at him and said, “Young man, I too, know who I am. What I don't know is where I'm going.”
  10. Oh, God, thank you. I have more time than I thought.
  11. When I cooked at CIA in NY, we asked if the leftover food could be sent to soup kitchens. No, NY law says that food can only be served at the place for which it was intended, can’t be moved somewhere else. they produced a lot of compost.
  12. What is/are your nonalcoholic drink(s) of choice? Coffee, tea, soda, cola, water? Are there specific times when you prefer one over another? Me? Coffee black, no sugar. Coke Zero.
  13. Given how many “it’ll never works” have become successful products, it’s a good thing the doubters get ignored. BTW, Ididnt think it’d work either but I know some cats, such as Maine Coons, are off the chart smart.
  14. OMG, 9x13 regular, deep, and extra deep, 10x14, 11x15, 8x11…. Sometimes I think that if I don’t have it either they don’t make it, or it walked out the door.
  15. From Shirley MacLaine’s autobiography “My Lucky Stars”/1996, “Traveling back to California in his plane, across country, after our last stadium show in 1992, Frank Sinatra was 76 years old. Frank didn’t want to sleep. It was late at night. He thought everyone else was asleep. I watched him. He went to the back of the plane, quietly retrieved snack food from the galley. He got down on his hands & knees, surreptitiously stuffed everyone’s shoes with popcorn, peanuts, jellybeans, gumdrops, crackers. Frank Sinatra, my friend, legend, glorious survivor would do anything to have fun.”
