Well, you've read the notes, the notes had Apple Pie Spice and were in a nutshell, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently in a nutshell trying to figure out how in tarnation they GOT there.

Excellent news about "STAGES" BK.
I need to modify that to S.T.A.G.E plural !!
A case of semantics!!

Not Stages - the STAGE benefits.  Stages is already out :-)

Matthew's birthday was added to the notes instantly.

I don't believe I have ever had a frozen meal (Or a thawed frozen meal)..
Ice-cream Doesn't really fit the bill!

The earliest frozen TV dinners that I can remember eating were salisbury steak.  I haven't had one in quite a few years.  I do have several Lean Cuisine dinners in my freezer, right now.  I like them (I get them at Costco, so they cost less than at regular stores), but they're not the same. ;)

I live in a "Fresh food" house. This is even a microwave free house.  Always fresh fruit and vegetables. I have never eaten a so called "T.V. dinner"

We do have some processed foods!

The first frozen dinner I can remember was the late 50s Swanson TV dinners, usually chicken.  We thought they were most amusing, but they were really quite gross.  When Stouffer's debuted, I was very fond of their macaroni and cheese, lasagna, pizza bread, and a few others.  I love Lean Cuisine pizzas - hardly any calories and quite tasty in a frozen sort of way.   I've tried quite a few other frozen dinners, but most of them aren't to my liking, so I'm interested to hear all opinions.

Der Brucer and I keep a couple of Stouffer's sides in the freezer at all times - the Spinach Souffle and Harvest Apples - as a back-up for when it's late and we want something on the plate fast.  But we're not into the whole "entire meal" frozen dinner thing.  My cooking is much better, and one of those itty-bitty "meals" simply isn't enough.

As for Lean Cuisine, I'll have you know that my Daddy taught me to stand up straight and tall, shoulders back.  Leaning was simply not part of the program.

Good morning, all!  I couldn't believe 400+ posts when I woke up this morning. Wow!

DRvixmom, BRIDE AND PREJUDICE is based quite closely on PRIDE AND PREJUDICE.  If the vixter enjoys it, I'd rent the 2-disc BBC PRIDE AND PREJUDICE for viewing.  Much as I admire Aldous Huxley's DEVILS OF LOUDON and a lot of the cast, the Greer Garson-Laurence Olivier version of Ms Austen's masterpiece sets my teerth on edge for moving the period from 1812 to the 1830s and totally missing the cruelty under its veneer.  Any adaptation that makes Lady Catherine de Burgh remotely friendly has lost the author's mood.

DRs Jose and Jason, tonight is my monthly music librarians' dinner at 6:30 in the Village.  If you'd like to join us tonight, email me or call me.
I don't know if any of the R&H crew will be there, but it's always festive.

TOD:  frozen foods terrify me and cause flashbacks to my childhood when my Mother went mad and stopped cooking.  I only keep icecubes in the freezer.  And Hagen-Daz.

And now it's time for me to dash away again.  Early shift selling frozen dinners to the massive.  Or, if not massive, at least the weighty.

Good Morning, DR Elmore!

Woody!  Good morning, dear friend.  I had meant to say hello and to mention Matthew's birthday, but I got so wrapped up in Miss Austen's work, I forgot!  I hope you have a great day today.

Tuesday greetings!  Back to work for me after a very relaxing 3-day weekend.

TOD - Stouffer's scalloped chicken, corn souffle, apples.  Also, when DS Rob was in elementary school, they had a fundraiser called Market Day.  We ordered frozed foods once a month and picked them up at the school.  My favorites were their frozen corn, apple pie, turkey roasts, and hot dogs.

My favorite frozen food, though, is what I cook in large quantities and freeze in individual portions for later - lasagna, tuna glop (yes, it freezes well), beef stroganoff, vegetable soup, etc.

I, like Miss Minoff, have a box of eggplant cutlets in my freezer also. We like them. When defrosted they make a nice, quick meal.

Lots of great frozen foods, but the Stouffer's line is the best carried in our market.

Uno's Pizzeria sells pizza that you can heat up in the oven (or at least did a few years ago), but I forget whether that was actually frozen or just refrigerated.  Anyway, it was almost as good as getting it piping hot in the restaurant.

Joan Rivers used to have a joke about a certain actress being "the only person I know who stands in front of the microwave and yells HURRY!!!"

I at one point (in my youth) thought that joke was hilarious, but now that I've gotten older and less patient, I find myself putting a Stouffer's lasagne in the microwave for eleven minutes and indeed thinking - although not yelling - HURRY!!!   :)
