I keep forgetting about flax. I hear it's good for you and it doesn't do anything bad to the taste

If you can, look for the toasted ground flax. We used to be able to buy it here & the market stopped carrying it.

If I could bring back ONE show, it would be the Canadian TV show, SLINGS & ARROWS from a few years back...simply the greatest show about actors and theatre EVER!

I bought this series on DVD "blind" (or "coled") just because Paul Gross is so highly regarded for his part in it. Haven't watched it, but I appreciate the feedback from Mr. Pogue.

Ron, did you get all three series of the show? I never like to tell another person "you'll love it" or "over-hype" something, because one can never tell about another's personal taste. I can only say I love it. It was like watching years of my life roll by. I found it incredibly funny as well as incredibly moving. It hits me deep where I live.

I loved the series and praised it highly when it was being broadcast. Several DRs on HHW were apathetic about the whole thing when they checked it out.

Keith wasn't keen on it. I liked it enough to continue watching it even though I didn't love it.l

Back from the dentist's office, where I survived without needing a transfusion.

I have precooked the chicken for the enchiladas I'm making for dinner and have toasted the pecans for the brownies I'm about to bake.

MMMM.... Betsy insists nuts ruin chocolate, I insist quite the opposite.

Something else that Betsy and I agree on.

On another issue: I vote for nuts. Somehow a brownie seems lacking in something without the flavor and the contrasting texture that nuts provide. i prefer pecans, but walnuts will do in a pinch. And, if you're making brownies and have plenty of self-will, make up the batter and let it set in the refrigerator overnight. The chocolate flavors will intensify. I learned that trick from Alice Medrich, queen of chocolate.

Thanks for the tip, not that I think I have the will power to do it. I shall do my best, once I can bake again. My brownie recipe uses very little flour & is very rich. It was from Katharine Hepburn. Years ago she shared it during an interview. Her original recipe included walnuts which I immediately removed.

I like chocolate and nuts but am kind of a purist. That said, I do love our friend Rachel's fudge. Which reminds me, I need to send some to TCB, who helped come up with the name for her new business: Gem City Sweets.

Good for TCB!

I used to prefer plain fudge, now I add toasted slivered almonds & dried cherries.

DR Cillaliz did you see DANCING WITH THE STARS last night? If so what did you think? Any favorites yet?

To me there were so many stiff ones out there. And another problem i have is if i dislike the pro dancer it sometimes makes me not like the celeb like i would if they were with a pro dancer i liked.

By far the best dancer (and obviously so because of her dance experience) was Nicole. And since i really like derek i think this will be one of my favorite teams.

The person who i think got shafted by the judges was chad. I actually thought he was very good. He had rhythm. He was much better than i thought he would be. The only problem i have is 1) for some reason i tend not to love the football players 2) even though i think cheryl is immensely talented i find i almost never cheer on her teams.

Another person who i thought did well was evan. But i really dislike his partner anna.

I thought buzz was obviously the worst. And ashley is also not one of my favorites. But i'm sure he'll last a while.

Pamela anderson was better than i expected. And her partner (the new pro damian) seems like he will be fun.

After they showed Bachelor Jake's clip i thought he was going to be awful. But surprisingly he was quite decent. Although i doubt i will ever vote for him.

I thought that shannen (with mark) and erin (with maks) were both very stiff. Although Mark and Maks are two of my favorite pros. So hopefully both teams will improve.

I thought Niecy (from Reno 911) was bouncy and fun. Although I could see her going out early. I also thought that aiden (with edyta) is probably the least well known. And he was so stiff. So i could see him going early.

I'm not sure what i thought of kate gosselin (with tony). I don't dislike her the way some people do. She really has no performing experience at all. So that is a huge disadvantage. Because all of the others are either professional athletes or actors/performers. So considering that i guess she did as expected. She will probably be quite popular. So i guess she'll be around for a while.

I thought the two worst were Buzz Aldren...yeah, I know he's 80, but he can't dance...and Kate Gosselin. I know she doesn't have experience, but so what she can't dance

DR Edi,

My guess, you won't be sending fudge to TCB that has nuts in it, good thing he mentioned it

I like the name of your documentary. I'll be curious what the new title is.

I just saw the ratings.

DANCING WITH THE STARS had its highest ratings ever for a season premiere.

And that helped CASTLE earn its best ratings ever last night. It even beat, for the very first time, an original episode of CSI: MIAMI which had a first run low for the show.

So much for not having any "stars" that anyone recognized!

Finally finished reading/proofing - found a couple of whoppers, but the fixes should go very quickly. Grant, I think, who has been lobbying strongly for keeping Vilanch, has found a way to do it that I think might work. And Vilanch is fine with us doing what we need to do. I shall now be on my way to Grant's to hopefully finish the book and put it to bed.

DR ELMORE - my guess is the weather in Ohio was most pleasant as well.

Thanks to all for the comments on my comments.

SLINGS & ARROWS was most entertaining, and sometimes TOO close to my experience.....but Mr Paul Gross was most excellent.

As much as I enjoy Paul Gross; I did not enjoy SLINGS & ARROWS.

Actually I thought we were discussing brownies at the time. I can deal with fudge with nuts. Some of my best friends have nuts...........with their fudge.

My parents came to visit today, so I took the day off. I gave them a tour of the office and then we went out to lunch, did some shopping and had ice cream. They hadn't been here since last spring, so it was great.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #141 on:** March 23, 2010, 05:39:03 PM »

As for "nut" v. "no nuts"...

I like both. Although, I will say, that if a brownie has nuts in it - I usually prefer pecans over walnuts - it better have just the right amount of nuts. Not too little, not too much. Just right.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #142 on:** March 23, 2010, 05:43:15 PM »
