Soy sauce is great for taking stains out!

???

Do you just keep pouring it on until the soy sauce covers the stain?

DR Jose, that is funny!

Actually I could use something to get out a stain. :(
Only problem is it does not seem to be a new stain.  It looks like mustard or something.  And it's on my Mamma Mia shirt.  I just keep spraying it and rubbing.  Hopefully the stain will at least lighten enough so i can wear it!

Well, Mrs. Meers didn't specify, but I would guess you just use lots and lots!  ;D

Ah, yes. I had read about that yesterday. I didn't realize it was taking effect so soon.

You're obviously not going to tell us what it is either, are you, young man!?!

Or you could just buy a new one when you go to see the show later on!

:)

Or just buy sequins to cover up the spot.

I don't know if they sell this shirt, I think i got it in london.  It's light blue (the women's t).

I don't think sequins will work. But maybe there is some sort of decal i can put on it! :(

Got the second version of the GH master, but, after listening to both, I'm favoring version one, which has more bass.  I found when the bass got pulled back it hurt the tone of Mr. Haines' voice.  So, we're just trying to figure out if one track needs to come down a couple of db or whether it's fine as is - if it's the latter, then I'll be driving the masters to the pressing plant today.  If it's the former, the mastering engineer will overnight me a final copy with that one track's level down.

DR. Jane said yesterday

Also in the news today, not so good for me but appropriate for our TOD, is an article on Oregon hazelnut growers.  They want hazelnuts to become a staple.  

I think they would make a better paper clip

Cookies are called biscuits in OZ.
Favourite - chocolate coated Teddy Bear Biscuits. (DR Jose may have tried those).

Home made biscuits:  and Gingernuts (Made with Golden Syrup and Powdered ginger).  Would the recipes translate?

I have the Golden Syrup, just need the recipe. :D  They sound yummy.

There's this new regulation pushed by our Nazi government, 2257, that is an insult to free speech and personal liberty.  It's aimed primarily at the Adult Entertainment Industry, and seems to have been bulldozed into being.

From Bruce yesterday:

Quote
Speaking of nutmeats, they were handing out the peanuts on the plane when suddenly the stewardess took all of the packets back from those she'd passed them out to.  Why?  Because, there was someone on the plane who was allergic to peanuts.  Of course, I wondered why that person just didn't EAT the peanuts if they were allergic - why couldn't WE eat the peanuts?  It turned out that the very attractive young lady  next to me works in a hospital, and she told me that even the smell or dust particles from peanuts could put that person into an attack and that they could possibly even die from it.  Who knew?  

I would have thought who didn’t know.  ;D Schools are separating the peanut eaters from the non peanut eaters or completely denying any form of peanuts at school.  My kids practically lived on peanut butter sandwiches.

It's a fancy term for shredded and flaked and dried coconut.  Health food stores carry it.  The sweetened shredded coconut available in most grocery stores is not the same.  Dessicated coconut is not sweetened.  However, I have come across recipes for ANZAC Biscuits that call for shredded coconut.  I guess it depends upon how sweet you want your biscuits.


Thanks for the coconut info!!  Now, what's Golden Syrup?

(and please don't say that it has anything to do with the topic that isn't being discussed! :o ;) )

Why have all these dastardly things come to light in the last two decades?  How ever did we all survive, I wonder?  I never heard the initials ADD until the nineties - I think that's a disease brought on by MTV, computers, and the media.  Peanut allergies that can kill?  How many people have died from peanut allergies, and if they are so lethal and so prevalent, then why did we not know about them before, why have airlines been making with the peanuts forever, why, why, why?  How ever did all us people survive a world in which there wasn't a toilet lock?   I am quite allergic to pollen - have flowers been banned?  Is that next?

From Ron:

Quote
I would have thought who didn’t know.  Of course, that's because no one probably knew about it....still, I've never heard of anyone actually dying from peanut dust.  

I have become very ill simply from breathing foods & chemicals I’m allergic to.  For a short time a boy who was allergic to peanuts joined my hiking group.  I had to stop taking peanut butter dog treats for Echo on the chance the boy would touch her and make contact with the peanut oil since he might stop breathing.  Very scary.

Bruce I wish people had been more concerned about my food allergies in the past.  I might have been saved some rather painful experiences.  It is all about public awareness.

DRLaura and Sandra how is the air your way?

I'm not denying the existence of such allergies, nor the importance of public awareness.  But, we live in a time of fear - everything is a "deal."  And the media feeds the "deal."  I've flown regularly for over three decades, and yesterday was the first time I've ever heard this peanut thing.

George, Golden Syrup is a bit like honey in texture but very different in taste.  Check out the following:

Bruce you might feel differently if you knew a child who died eating fries cooked in peanut oil, after being told it wasn't peanut.  It was very, very sad.

The best American baritone ever!  Yep, it's John.  He was a dear man and a great talent who died far too young.  I wsh SONY would release his recording of THE MERRY WIDOW with Lisa Della Casa on CD; it's a good translation, and the cast is wonderful.  John's recording of DO RE MI leaves the overrated Stokes Mitchell in the dust.

Thanks. :) I was actually wondering if it might be like corn syrup, but I guess not.

I was trying to find a solo CD of John Reardon, but none seem to exist.

A fine looking man and I would enjoy hearing him sing.
