I have a new cuisinar from christmas and I've been using it.<br />
I place half a carton of whipped cream in the cuisinar bowl and I whip it as fast as possible without splashing too much and making a mess.<br />
it turns to whipped cream in mere minutes, but I add salt instead of sugar to my whipped cream.<br />
whip it more, until the butter clumps up around the mixing head and there is remaining liquid called buttermilk which can also be used in making buttermilk biscuits.<br />
<br />
so I've commited to always making my own butter, which is more wholesome and I'm assuming better for you in the end.<br />

I then looked at the red wines when the store lady helped me and I chose a sweet wine named: Rodrigues winery, Strawberry wine 10% alcohol. I bought 2 of them and with jon's beer it came up to just over fifty bucks. I took out half an onion which I diced very finely, I took out half a big tomato which I diced as well. I took out the pita breadsand I shredded cheddar and mozarelly cheese, sliced up half a red pepper. I took out the half of the black olives can I had in the fridge. I took out a previously sliced up cup of radishes I sliced up some salami. All that was to be toppings and fillings to the pita bread halves. On the other shelving of the kitchen, I put out Ritz crackers, other crackers, sliced cheddar cheese, sliced mozarelly cheese, olives, pickled baby onions, pickled sliced peppers, and a platter of mini sandwich from m&m meats not mentioning the bowl of coleslaw and also the bowl full of fresly cut oranges. We haven't had supper yet but I'm anxious to dig in, I love finger foods.</div><br /><div>At the last minute I baked a batch of pilsbury dough boy croissants.</div><br /><div></div></div></div></div>rachel neilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15365305584366887730noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5267985478627743359.post-80997339555572395412011-04-08T15:26:00.000-07:002011-04-08T15:35:56.469-07:00Italian soup with garlic toasts<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu7S30h0KBd5uYZApjah8AT0j5EghCyh9Jq_f1JSZgOz_boPdqdkEgFjvo9MZhqWOhyphenhyphenghcmOhfUCzK1Wlk6r1hOCkh1l5j-B2XxckbUNblYe5tzK-DkTmNJNO8ri1JBzfY6MsXn6C-QRw/s1600/bacon+and+perogies+132.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593343641607934402" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu7S30h0KBd5uYZApjah8AT0j5EghCyh9Jq_f1JSZgOz_boPdqdkEgFjvo9MZhqWOhyphenhyphenghcmOhfUCzK1Wlk6r1hOCkh1l5j-B2XxckbUNblYe5tzK-DkTmNJNO8ri1JBzfY6MsXn6C-QRw/s400/bacon+and+perogies+132.jpg" border="0" /></a> <br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuqTaeN0jzKhyphenhyphenZy-LwEbsUmB1lmdj18a7l0qDA-0LNcBaEGCYxIwgqJp7VjRWGsz7mpxfqZ-ceNMg1uJE7A2tMq999HLFDo8Wb7Eh2HaiGDTdLG3sYVsGGGDyhTr_Goc5R0HE9FrKmMjg/s1600/bacon+and+perogies+135.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593343440012262578" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuqTaeN0jzKhyphenhyphenZy-LwEbsUmB1lmdj18a7l0qDA-0LNcBaEGCYxIwgqJp7VjRWGsz7mpxfqZ-ceNMg1uJE7A2tMq999HLFDo8Wb7Eh2HaiGDTdLG3sYVsGGGDyhTr_Goc5R0HE9FrKmMjg/s400/bacon+and+perogies+135.jpg" border="0" /></a> <br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEh4SsoGNeZZJFUjoxbYhTPisRPqVvId-JXrYsR4cT-ksRqySHs6nLB0dVzO17IpzMXIVtIqPWzF71OOAovdkIperyJoFEBAMb_wdZCgL0aa2Q1BPXfE6e7OYvJ3Pxl5ZLqywx3nOE5IQ/s1600/bacon+and+perogies+136.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593343297262944722" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEh4SsoGNeZZJFUjoxbYhTPisRPqVvId-JXrYsR4cT-ksRqySHs6nLB0dVzO17IpzMXIVtIqPWzF71OOAovdkIperyJoFEBAMb_wdZCgL0aa2Q1BPXfE6e7OYvJ3Pxl5ZLqywx3nOE5IQ/s400/bacon+and+perogies+136.jpg" border="0" /></a> <br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9hn-6w6nGW3LajwFdvHYgpJXKsrMQcQEFo24PgKMiw5godnwHxkTG7kRSdNIZuYsJ70HgkYfTJgbXxjPP9kST0-nz9G9zrZODkhn6wgaZFoXlTPFnqsRHuxYyt45zU88XRJAC3J0nPZE/s1600/bacon+and+perogies+137.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593343114211931586" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9hn-6w6nGW3LajwFdvHYgpJXKsrMQcQEFo24PgKMiw5godnwHxkTG7kRSdNIZuYsJ70HgkYfTJgbXxjPP9kST0-nz9G9zrZODkhn6wgaZFoXlTPFnqsRHuxYyt45zU88XRJAC3J0nPZE/s400/bacon+and+perogies+137.jpg" border="0" /></a> <br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyClEyKVnEwcWwLS6p-ZZ0zn-mA-_H4JgeyZ3wK8r98uLNgLJbHXFjPJPofqKeL9uEBCJMdCt5WAR_GjZUObymt7YJYsumz5D2HDwk3aUItJUi5-HLcsjMy6zFbHIAKuvYiv4RdorONBs/s1600/bacon+and+perogies+138.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593342915533789858" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyClEyKVnEwcWwLS6p-ZZ0zn-mA-_H4JgeyZ3wK8r98uLNgLJbHXFjPJPofqKeL9uEBCJMdCt5WAR_GjZUObymt7YJYsumz5D2HDwk3aUItJUi5-HLcsjMy6zFbHIAKuvYiv4RdorONBs/s400/bacon+and+perogies+138.jpg" border="0" /></a> <br /><div>First of all, I put maybe a teaspoon full of olive oil in my crock pot and I turned it on to high.</div><br /><div>I threw in half an onion, all diced up and I let the onions sweat under the cover of the glass lid.</div><br /><div>After the onion start looking trasparent, I added a little diced red pepper.</div><br /><div>Cook it all together under the lid of course.</div><br /><div>I then thought of quinoa and added just a handful of the little grains.</div><br /><div>Next came a couple of pinches of red pepper flakes ( as shown in the picture )</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I put some water in my frying pan of meatballs and tomato sauce from yesterday's supper and I mixed it all up in the frying pan, scraping all the flavourful tomato sauce.</div><br /><div>Next went in some cooked pasta I had frozen for later use.</div><br /><div>I threw in a handful of beef soup powder for taste.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I cooked the whole mixture now on low for a few hours...

Sometimes hives would resurface at different spots on the skin. They are believed to be chronic if they last for over a month. At times, hives could become more severe and cause inhalation problems. In some cases, individuals who develop hives have a severe allergic reaction which requires medical attention. There are some important <a title="hives treatment" href="http://www.hives-treatment.com/" target="_blank">hives treatment</a> by which this skin problem can be cured.</p><br /><p>Home Remedies for Hives • An application of cool compression could help to provide some respite from itching and pain of hives. Application of calamine lotion is useful up to a certain extent in hives. This is very helpful, particularly in itching and is one of the good home remedies for hives. • One of the most vital factors is soothing the nerves as stress makes the hives worse. Drinking peppermint tea calms down the disposition and hives too. You could also try drinking valerian or chamomile tea to soothe your nerves as this would help in healing hives. • An application of aloe vera is time tested and effective home remedy for hives. You could use the pulp of aloe or a cream comprising aloe on the affected area. This herb has the property to heal skin disease. • Vitamin E oil is also valuable for healing hives. Apply this oil at least twice a day for better results. • Consume cayenne pepper capsule that's available in the market. Cayenne has medicinal value to cure hives. • Take 1 tsp of olive or vegetable oil and mix few drops of grapefruit seed extract into this. Apply this mixture over the affected area on the skin. It helps in lessening the itching and healing of the hives.</p><br /><p>• Applying Aloe Vera gel on the hives</p><a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2719775-10408997?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chapters.indigo.ca%2Fbooks%2FJudes-Herbal-Home-Remedies-Natural-Jude-Williams%2F9780875428697-item.html&cjsku=978087542869" target="_top"><img alt="Jude''s Herbal Home Remedies: Natural Health, Beauty & Home-Care Secrets" src="http://images.chapters.indigo.ca/covers/books/869/087542869X_b.gif" border="0" /></a><img height="1" src="http://www.lduhtrp.net/image-2719775-10408997" width="1" border="0" /> <br /><p>• Make a paste out of two cups of oatmeal and 3 tsp of cornstarch. Blend it well by adding little water just to make a form of paste. Apply this solution on the affected area for about ½ an hour. This mixture would dry up the hives within a couple of hours. Hives rash can also be cleared using the above home remedies.</p><br /><p>Article Source: <a title="Effective Home Remedies for Hives" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/allergies-articles/effective-home-remedies-for-hives-4489513.html">http://www.articlesbase.com/allergies-articles/effective-home-remedies-for-hives-4489513.html</a></p><strong>About the Author</strong> <br /><p>I am anjali sharma.

<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Here's how it goes:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">You'll need to cut up a large onion and fry it slowly on medium low heat until the onion is caramelized. It will take a while so be patient.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Once the onions are nice an brown, add a heaping tablespoon of white flour to your frying pan, coat all the onion pieces.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Then add your can of lentils, season heavily with salt and pepper and put a couple tablespoonfuls of white vinegar.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Voila.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Serve wish a side of sausage, or with toasts.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">It's so simple but so nutritious too.</span>rachel neilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15365305584366887730noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5267985478627743359.post-72104075246606563862009-07-28T08:25:00.000-07:002009-07-28T08:33:46.969-07:00storing apples and pears.Apples and Pears are easy to store, demanding only a box or shelf to sit on in a cool, dark, slightly damp environment. It is advisable to wrap each apple in newspaper to prevent mold. Make sure you store only the best fruit, removing all dubious-looking specimens which might ruin the healthy ones. It is also important that air can circulate around the fruit as poor ventilation will cause rotting.<br /><a href="http://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-2719775-10521904?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.homeroomdirect.com%2Fproduct.html%3Ft_q%3DCL595&cjsku=CL595" target="_top"><img border="0" alt="Set Of 2 Personalized Apple Wall Hooks" src="http://www.homeroomdirect.com/cat-images-lg/CL595.jpg" /></a><br /><img border="0" src="http://www.lduhtrp.net/image-2719775-10521904" width="1" height="1" />rachel neilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15365305584366887730noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5267985478627743359.post-9976107784574327992009-06-25T07:27:00.000-07:002009-07-23T09:35:17.906-07:00<h1>You Can Build It With Storage Shed Building Plans</h1><p>Whether you are a beginner or an experienced carpenter, you can build good looking sheds, arbors, porch swings, gazebos and more simply by following the instructions, diagrams and blueprints found in your storage shed building plans.

There are two pitches on each side of the roof, which gives it a barn style look. You can get the most use of space with this type of storage shed.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-2719775-10378099?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww2.yardiac.com%2Flong.asp%3Fitem_id%3D4327&cjsku=G66" target="_top"><img src="http://www2.yardiac.com/images.asp?id=3820" border="0" alt="Gardener Shed 6' x 6'"/></a><br /><img src="http://www.ftjcfx.com/image-2719775-10378099" width="1" height="1" border="0"/><br />Building this might look difficult, but it is quite simple. The only difference between a gambrel and a gable shed is the roof. When building this or any other type of shed, take your time building the rafters. Make sure they are all exactly the same. One good way to do this is to build your first set and use it as a template to build the rest. Having them all exactly the same will give you a leveled roof.<br /><br /><br /><br />Other Types of Sheds to Build<br /><br /><br /><br />If a gambrel shed is not right for your home landscape, here are some other types you can consider.<br /><br /><br /><br />Gable storage shed - This is the most common, there are two equal sides to both sides of the roof that meet at the top. This is the most common shed to build because of its simple structure, fits very well into most landscapes.<br /><br /><br /><br />Lean-to-shed - This type of shed has a roof that slopes from back, and drops down to the front. This type is great if you don't have to much room, great for narrow spaces. You can put this kind of shed against your house or fence.<br /><br /><br /><br />Salt-box - A saltbox is very similar to a gable except for the roof pith. A salt-box-shed will have an uneven pitch to the roof.<br /><br /><br /><br />If you have ever wanted to add a shed to your home, there are many choices you can choose from. You can either assemble one using a shed kit, or buy lumber and build your own.<br /><br /><br /><br />There are wide selections of kits you can buy. A kit will come in many different styles and sizes. Among the material to choose from are wood, vinyl, or metal. Assembling one should be pretty simple. The tools required to assemble a shed kit are very common to most households.<br /><br /><br /><br />Buying lumber and building your own shed will be the best choice. If you don't want to spend to much, build it yourself. If looks are important, invest in some plans. Having plans will not only make this project easier to build, it will also make it turn out better. You can find many free plans online. You can also buy and download them, it will be a small investment to make.<br /><br /><br /><br />Getting estimates from local handyman to do it for you might be something you will also want to consider. You won't have to do any of the work. If not having enough time to do it yourself is a factor, consider this choice. Get a couple of estimates and see if it can be done within your budget.<br /><br /><br /><br />If you have decided you want to build your own, but are unsure how to build a shed yourself, start by looking online at the free plans. If you can't find any free plans that meet your requirements, buy some, they are very affordable. All plans should come with a material list, this will give you a good idea what this project will cost. Sheds are very basic structures which can be built by many homeowners.<br /><br /><br /><br />As with any project, check with your building department for requirements and permits you might need.</p><strong>About the Author:</strong><br />Storage sheds are simple structures many beginner builders can build.

<br />Why not make your own citronella Tiki torches? Besides being great fun, you can spend the money you save by making your own torches on other Tiki decorations or ingredients for your Tiki drinks.<br />
<br /><br />
<br />These candles are made slightly differently to ordinary candles in that they have a protruding stick through the centre of the candle to enable them to be planted in the ground and strips of brown paper are used in addition to the wick to produce bigger flames that should withstand almost any breeze.<br />
<br /><br />
<br />The following instructions are for candles of approximately 20" but the basics would apply whether you are making 8" table top torches or 2' giant torches.<br />
<br /><br />
<br />For this project you'll need:<br />
<br /><br />
<br />- General purpose basic paraffin wax - approximately 5 lbs<br />
<br />- Brown paper cut into strips of approximately 1" wide<br />
<br />- Any wick that is suitable for 2" pillar candles - recommended : #1 square braid<br />
<br />- Wooden dowel approximately 3/8" in diameter and 20" in length.<br />
<br />- 1 ½ oz Citronella per pound of wax<br />
<br />- Dipping can<br />
<br />- Wax dye for colouring<br />
<br /><br />
<br />Preparing the Sticks<br />
<br /><br />
<br />Starting at one end of the stick, tape a strip of the 1" brown paper to the top end of the stick at a 45 degree angle with a piece of masking tape. Now wrap the strip of paper tightly around the stick going down the length of the stick until about half of the stick is covered. If the strip is too short add another piece so that you cover half of the stick with the brown paper.<br />
<br /><br />
<br />Dipping the Sticks<br />
<br /><br />
<br />Melt the wax and heat to about 180 degrees then add citronella and stir well for at least 2 minutes.<br />
<br /><br />
<br />Set up the dipping can (any waterproof can or pitcher can substitute as a mold if you do not have a tall pillar mold) Fill to approximately 1" from the top and dip the prepared sticks, one by one, into the wax. The sticks should be dipped long enough to be fully coated but must not be left to stand in the wax. Once the sticks have been removed lean them upright against a piece of waxed paper. Top up the dipping can with more of the melted wax when necessary.<br />
<br /><br /><a href="http://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-2719775-10378099?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww2.yardiac.com%2Flong.asp%3Fitem_id%3D27692&cjsku=202C" target="_top"><img src="http://www2.yardiac.com/images.asp?id=24002" border="0" alt="Yard & Garden Torches-Smooth Medium 60""/></a>
<br /><img src="http://www.tqlkg.com/image-2719775-10378099" width="1" height="1" border="0"/>
<br />Once the wax has hardened on the sticks the process must be repeated. Wax that is too hot, leaving the sticks in the dipping can for too long or not allowing the wax to harden before the next dipping will prevent the candles forming and you will notice that they are not getting any bigger. Wax that is too cold will result in a lumpy or streaky finish to the candle. Reheat the wax by placing the dipping can in a double boiler and heating.<br />
<br /><br />
<br />Repeat the dipping process until the candle has reached about three quarters of the desired thickness. The wick must now be wrapped around the candle. The wick should be double the length of the dipped section of the candle. Leave at least 1" wick protruding at the top of the candle and using masking tape affix the wick onto the top end of the candle. Coil the wick around the entire length of the dipped section of the candle and then tape the wick to the bottom of the candle.<br />
<br /><br />
<br />Once the wick is in place the dipping process must be repeated until the sides of the candle are smooth and the ridge formed by the wick is no longer visible.<br />
<br /><br />
<br />Add wax dye to the reminder of the dipping wax and repeat the dipping process using the colored wax. To get a good solid color this process will need to be repeated several times.<br />
<br /><br />
<br />Allow the candles to cool in an upright position leaning onto a piece of waxed paper.<br />
<br /><br />
<br />The candles must now be left for at least 24 hours, but preferably 48 hours to allow the wax and citronella to bind.<br />
<br /><br />
<br />When you need to use the Tiki torches plant them directly into the ground or in large flower pots unless you have made smaller table top Tiki torches in which case they can be placed in smaller table top flower pots.<br />

<br />These Tiki torches add to the island atmosphere at your next Tiki party but can be also used whenever you plan an outdoor meal as they are effective as mosquito and fly- repellents and are decorative and add a personal touch.</p><strong>About the Author:</strong><br />The author likes to give people advice on <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?How-to-Build-a-Tiki-Bar-Over-a-Weekend&id=1913517">how to build a tiki bar</a>.
