I hate it when people post just to post.....

....like when clearly the post has no relevance or adds no value to the OP's question or concern.

Like this:

OP Question: I am having trouble finding a good fish recipe I like...can anyone help?

Response: I hate fish! Fish makes me gag!

Can someone explain the purpose of this? I mean, if you don't like fish, then why dont you just move on to the next thread? Who really cares what makes you gag or not gag???? I know I don't.

  • I'm having a very hard time understanding why three out of four guinea pigs have the first letter of their name capitalized, but the fourth one (cuddles), has the first letter of its name in lower cas

  • well, i respectfully disagree. I don't think its acceptable to do it. I strongly dont think that its ok to do it, and i do not think that someone who's doctor didnt tell them about PB's who comes here

My heart really goes out to her. She had surgery on Friday and is flying out of state for the funeral tomorrow. Sometimes life just isn't fair. :fish:

Ok...I'm usually nice and am the one quietly laughing and agreeing while you guys post about your peeves...but I couldn't help myself on this one. How the hell is your band attached to the blood vessels in your nose? The only thing I can think of is if they had some sort of assisted breathing at the hospital but from my experience, I had a tube down my throat.

I didn't know they were now banding the nasal cavity. Oh...it is way too early for this!

I suppose it's possible that the heparin that they used during surgery to prevent clotting hasn't worn off yet, but I don't know the first thing about blood thinners. Most likely, she just had a bloody nose, though.

Maybe she means that blood is seeping out of her port when she blows her nose, not out of her nose???

Fried foods .... anyone try fried mac & cheese? .

I was just watching Paula's Party and she deep fried jellied cranberry sauce....I love cranberry sauce and I wonder how this would taste....but.....I'm afraid I can't bring myself to eat that many calories.

Deep-Fried Cranberry Sauce Fritters Recipe courtesy Paula Deen, 2007See this recipe on air Tuesday Nov. 20 at 12:00 AM ET/PT. Show: Paula's PartyEpisode: Deep Fried Thanksgiving spacer.gifIP0307_Cranberry_Fritters_e.jpgspacer.gifspacer.gif

1 (13-ounce) can jelly style cranberry sauce, sliced into 1/2-inch thick rounds

2 cups all-purpose flour, divided

2 tablespoons sugar

Pinch salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 cup water

Oil, for frying

Lay the cranberry sauce rounds out in a single layer on a parchment paper-lined sheet pan and freeze for 4 hours or until solid. In a shallow bowl, place one cup of the flour. In another shallow bowl combine the remaining cup of flour with the sugar, salt, and baking powder. Pour in the water and stir together until smooth. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes. Heat the oil in a deep-fryer or large Dutch oven to 375 degrees F. Dredge the frozen cranberry sauce rounds in the flour. Then dip rounds in the batter and gently place in the oil. Fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Serve and enjoy immediately.

I love whole cranberries. They grow them around here. I can't even imagine ruining them by frying them.

I'm sorry, but fried cranberry sauce?? Ick! Why ruin it's gelatiny goodness with greasy fried batter? ;)

You know, a year ago that might have sounded pretty good. Today? Blahhhh, it sounds... icky.

Funny how tastes change yet the taste for Dove Milk Chocolate NEVER changes! :)
