KK, I made beef pho after I cadged a bunch of beef bones from a rancher friend that had a steer butchered, and I think I hit it! My pho might not...
Chrisle, I have a slow cooker (another name for a crock pot) and I love it! I make pulled pork, pot roast, ham like you do, and even some soups....
Happy Birthday (a day late, but heartfelt). The party sounds as if you enjoyed it, but since when does the birthday boy have to do the dishes?...
I like your method of hilling--sounds better than mine! I've been planting in a shallow trench, and then filling in. I think I'll try a deeper...
I was reading posts on several different forums, and just thought of this. NEVER, never on the Stew have I encountered a nasty, cruel, or even...
Well Jerry, you did it again! Good caption, very appropriate, and I'm looking forward to your photo post.
Thank you all for your kind comments--here in the looney bin there aren't too many kind words floating around! Zuzu, I don't have a pinterest...
