Outfield

So, I've been trying to be the good wife and cook a little more. I'm still not the best cook but practice makes perfect.

I came across this website of "unique" sandwiches. Some sounded very interesting and things I would never try but now want

to let my taste buds explore.

http://ask.metafilter.com/52160/Sandwichs

Does anyone have a sandwich that they consider a comfort food or just plain great?

All of mine are pretty basic:

1. Fried eggs, bacon, cheese, mayo, mustard

2. Tomato slices, cheese, mayo ( still love this one!)

3. Grilled cheese with tomato soup

4. Turkey, bacon, avacodo

I guess I'm not that adventurous.

However about a year ago I heard about the

5. Potato chip sandwich --

potato chips between two slices of mayonaised bread -- oh yeah it's good!

Pot Roast --

Does anyone have a good recipe for pot roast in the slow cooker?

I'm going to brown the outside first on high heat and then let cook for hours -- but I'm mainly looking for a sauce to add. I'm considering some water, Worchestire, a little vinegar? Anyone have ideas?

I'll add potatos and carrots about half way through.

In my "Walnut research" they also stain baskets with the dye from the hulls -- and clothes, wood, etc.

There are also medicines made from the hulls. I just want the dang nut for baking, etc. haha.

Intersting nut!

Pond,

How do you get the hulls off? I've heard it's better to remove them when green. The only way I have figured out is soaking them and then peeling them with a knife (I haven't read this anywhere). You said you let them turn brown and then remove. Just curious. I'm having a time with these things!

I believe Christian's can be possessed but it's only when they are off on their walk with God. Like they are getting drunk, doing drugs, etc.

Spirits come and go as they please and they always have to have a host. I've heard stories of spiritual possession and the person said, "It was like they were standing back hearing their voice."

Esp. the alcoholic spirit -- Leviathon - who can drink up the sea. That's why some people can have 2 drinks and be fine others drink a 12 pack and still act completely normal.

In Matthew it talks about what is believed to be an alcoholic spirit. How each time it progressively gets worse because the old spirit brings with it 7 other spirits more wicked than it.

Holy Spirit from God is seed but I still believe you can be or become possessed when you open a trap door. There are or is even a devil spirit named Jesus.

There are so many spirits -- how many Christians have committed suicide? (debil spirit) Are alcoholics? (debil spirit). Murdered? (debil spirit).

The adversary's main goal is to get you to worship him no matter in what form, as long as you are not being loyal to the true God. But seed is seed. I can denounce my father and claim someone else is my father -- but DNA will always prove I am my father's.

Does anyone have a good recipe for chicken, sun dried tomatos and goat cheese?

So I made the Taco Dish.

It was alright. Next time I'm going to make the meat mixture the same but add crushed cornchips (as per hubby's suggestion) instead of using cresents. I think that will be yummo. There was a little too much bread for us.

I served it with salsa, sour cream and shredded lettuce.

My next meal will be chicken, sun dried tomato and goat cheese....mmmm. Still looking for a good recipe for that.

I'm not really sure what you are asking -- but I'll take a stab:

Yes the FOS helped me in college literature.

Learning the Greek is always fun for a good conversation topic. Once I was on a ship and we began discussing "Artios" with the Greek captain - he was impressed I knew what it meant.

Knowing where to find things in the bible (although that is a little more from my own studying) but my parents call me to ask where scriptures are located.

When I started tithing regularly, I was finding money everywhere -- on the street, getting tipped (even though I had a job that did not tip) -- that was cool -- I even received some free groceries once.

I'll have to think a little more.

I am making this tonight and have heard that it is very yummy. I will let ya'll know.

Taco Dish

2 - 8oz. cans of cresent rolls divided

1 1/2 lbs. ground beef

1/2 small onion minced

2 cups shredded chedder cheese

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup chilli sauce (find it near the ketcup)

2 T. Taco seasoning

1 T . Worchestire sauce

1/2 tsp. garlic salt

1/2 tsp. pepper

Unroll can of rolls in greased pan -- make bottom (like a pie crust) bake at 375 for 10min. (until browned)

Make ground beef / onion & stir in all ingredents once browned (including cheese)

pour over bottom crust -- take 2nd can of rolls and cut into strips (like a pie topping) and place on top (so they are thin and overlapping (like tic tac toe)

Bake at 375 for 25 min. until golden. Let stand 10 min.

Serve with salsa, sour cream....etc....

I love this thread and wish more people would share their recipes. I'm always looking for some new adventure in the kitchen.

Anyways, in our backyard we have what I believe is a Black Walnut tree. I am attempting to collect them and use them. However, it's a process. First you have to hull the green skin around the nut. I have been searching on the internet and have seen a few different methods. Then you have to have a special nut cracker (so I've read).

Does anyone have any experince with black walnuts? I'm looking for some help. Thanks!

Thank you all for your replies. I guess I just wonder what would make grown men want to behave in such a childish manner. Alot of times during the "yelling" it reminded me of a 4 year old that doesn't get to play with the toy he wants or has to take a bath.

These are grown men. I never respect that. A grown man knows how to hold his own and is mature. Doesn't pitch fits. Doesn't act spoiled.

But I love how it was always turned around that "we were spoiled, didn't know how to work, we were lazy....."

And then told to "renew our minds." Why didn't they renew their minds?

I am relatively new here and enjoy reading everyone's posts. I especially like the stories (i.e. Watered Garden, Eyesopen, etc.) share from their experiences. I can always relate one way or another.

So, does anyone have a "face melting" story? I've been around some face meltings where the leader went on and on and on and then told us, "Don't get all soft on me." Or where it always had to be "his" way and if it wasn't - we were lazy and not good stewards for the Word of God.

Just wondering about some other's stories.

Oh my!

Okay I'll get my head out of the gutter -- (yoink)

Millet -- that was "one" of my first thoughts......

Does anyone have any good recipes for Chicken. I'm sick of baking it, stir frying and boiling it. I have one that most people like.

Melt butter

Crush up Ritz crackers and mix with parsley

Dip chicken breasts in butter and then in Ritz cracker mix

Put in baking dish

Pour remainder of butter over chicken

I believe you bake it at 350 for about 20-30 minutes. It's the butter that makes it moist and good.

One drink for every:

Dat's right

fake laugh

class / kids you just gotta

It's the Word the Word and nothing but the Word

Oh I don't want to hear about....

Take your bibles and go to....

Two drinks for:

Renew your mind

Change your thinking

There are some healings you just keep to yourself!

Didn't Christ Jesus even tell some people to never tell -- and when they did there were consequences.

And, furthermore, that type of behavior is more appropriate for swingers -- not people going to a Christian Bible class on Sex.

At the end of the class a 70 something man took the hand of a 35 year old family corps woman and placed it on his pants where was an erection and calmly said to her, "Ain't had one of these in 20 years." He got some personal healing during the class and shared it with her and IT WAS NO BIG DEAL!!! That's what was beautiful: the atmosphere, not the pictures or the slang terms for body parts.

That's just gross and I think this topic should be CFS -- there are like over 1,000 posts in here.

If a man took a girl's hand and placed it on his genitals (even over pants) she should have kneed him right in the twins (or squeezed REALLY hard).

However, I can understand not knowing what to do in that situation -- poor, poor girl. This is just absurd.

I was never in The Way officially. But what drew me in was non-judgemental categorizing. However, this soon changed once I became a grad of piffle.

I dont' know where I'm going with this.... Basically, I was accepted and then it started turning, more and more and more. Even though it wasn't The Way. And I started asking more -- and then told to "obey."

This was funny!!!

What are the Gartmore tapes? Were these seperate from the Way International?

Jesus won't be bringing "dead" people. He will be bringing those born again "new bodies." When you are born again you receive a new "creature" so to speak -- that's what is perfect and blameless before God. Our physical bodies will remain -- it's our holy spirit bodies that will go to heaven.
