DR Jane, these are on their way:

CA, CO, CT, DC, FL, IL, IN, MA, MI, NH, NJ, NV, NY, OH, PA, UT, VA, VT, WI, WY, and Canada.

For a few of those states there are two or three different cards, with a few vintage or otherwise unusual/collectible ones in the mix.  I have a VERY modest postcard collection (it's not really even good enough to be called a collection), and almost all of these were dupes -- which are especially silly to keep around.

EDIT:  It was fun going through them!  

WOW!  I should have begun with you.  Are you sure you want to send the vintage/collectible cards? 

Absolutely.  Collectible, in a very general sense.  I don't mean to imply that they're worth any real money.  (So, she won't get rich on them, either!     Plus, they're dupes.

My parent's traveled a lot from the time I was young which interested me in post cards.  I had a rather large collection until it disappeared during one of our many moves.

My first batch of caramel corn for the 2012 holiday season is in the oven.  Heart-healthy?  Not in the least...

This week is the Criterion sale at Barnes & Noble for those who just can't enough.

Last week, my dad asked if I would record "M," starring Peter Lorre, on TCM.  My DVR recorded it, but something was coded incorrectly with TCM's broadcast and the recording ended about 10 minutes before the movie ended. When I looked at the DVR movie information at the very end of the recording, it showed a different title, so it stopped recording. 

Anyway, I looked to buy a DVD of "M" for my dad and found four releases (on Amazon...I didn't even think about Barnes & Noble).  I eventually decided to get THIS version, for about $18 (used, "like new").  There was an earlier Criterion release, as well as THIS DVD-R release and this "remastered" DVD-R. 

I hope I made the best choice.  I don't suppose anyone knows the differences...not that it matters.  I already bought the DVD that I bought.

[Jennifer]

I wish we had a Barnes & Noble here.

I have to go to the dermatologist in Medford so I will do some errands there first.  I don't feel like going at all as I have a mild migraine.  My head isn't bad, I just feel woozy & sick.  I hope getting out makes me feel better. 

I got the doctor to fit me in for this appointment & now the spot I was concerned about is almost gone.  It has happened before which history tells me could be skin cancer so I shall have the tiny spot removed anyway.

I have the Criterion edition. Is it out of print?

Sorry about Missy, Druxy.  But a good, long dog life.

[Ginny]

I have had the beginning stage of a cold so long now it must be allergies.  I think asking about a cold before taking the prep is a good idea.  As I have a prescription for ZuPrep I'm curious about the answer.

For the same procedure?  When is yours?

[Matthew]

Think I'm going to make a tater tot casserole for dinner.  Anyone have a good recipe?

[Ben]

I don't have a recipe but I would love a tater tot casserole for dinner. I don't eat TTs regularly since I left Minnesota 32 years ago.

Han Suyin's novel A Many Splendoured Thing is one of my favorite reads.....I highly recommend especially to those who are fans of the film.

I haven't read the book.  Would I like it better than the movie?

I think so...although the story is basically the same....there is more detail of her life and family and the politics of the time

[Jrand74]

Off to a dress rehearsal.....I hope I have a dress.

I've never seen you in a formal gown; some cute frocks, but nothing elegant!

You got the right one.  It's the latest Criterion release.  I have that and the UK Masters of Cinema Blu-ray.

[ChasSmith]

This Criterion was an improvement over the older.  That's why they rereleased it.  And they added a bunch of goodies. 

[George]

Thanks for the info, ChasSmith!

[ChasSmith]

That will be ten dollars, please.

That sure sounds like comfort food to me!

[ChasSmith]

Whoever comes up with a good tater tot recipe, be sure to post it.

[Matthew]

This is what I found.   Tater Tot Recipe 

[Matthew]

I'll make it in the oven and try and use healthier ingredients.  Try....

[John G.]

How about: Take tater tots and crisp bacon ...

Anything is good after that, right? You could do a layered dish like a McDonald's breakfast sandwich with eggs on the bottom, bacon (or sausage) and tater tots instead of hash browns. Cover with melted cheese food, for those who have to have it.

Or just put tater tots on top of a green bean casserole instead of frenched onions or whatever those things are.

Just read this. Sounds comforting to me.

Egads!  I was looking in the cupboards for items for the "clear liquid" diet I'm going to be on Wednesday and found beef bouillon cubes that expired in 1993 and chicken bouillon cubes that expired in 1989.  Out they went - probably too high in sodium, anyway...

[Doug R]

I couldn't be bothered to cook so, on the way home, I stopped off somewhere for lasagne with salad and garlic bread, which was yummy.

[Doug R]

Is it my imagination or does food get discussed a lot here

Sounds like my mom's kitchen.
