DYK I'm pretty sure I can find the 'warmers' here, but I'm not sure about the rest of it, Sue?

DYK The trouble is that down here, our winters are so mild that most stores don't sell anything to equip you for colder weather?

DYK I'm going to make a note of the 180's tho?

DYK I think we could probably use something like that?

DYK For me, I will need something extra to keep my feet warm and dry because of the trouble I have during the winter with Raynaud's syndrome (bad circulation in my hands & feet)?

DYK What would you all suggest in the way of a good pair of shoes or boots for the trip?

DYK If I'm going to be needing something along that line, I want to go ahead and start looking around or shopping online for them so I can make sure I get a pair that will be comfortable for lots of walking and also provide the warmth/dryness that I need?

DYK My luck, it will be cold and rainy the week we are there, Cathy?

DYK I will need to put a lot of thought into what to pack and what we will need for this trip?

DYK So I'm open to any and all suggestions/ideas!

DYK thanks Teresa- they had the party outside but it was under a tent and the sun actually came out at one point, so it wasn't too bad


DYK I was appalled at the food though- it was seriously awful. A big 'ole white flour fat

DYK Does the milk steamer portion work well on that Mr. Coffee, Destiny?

DYK We have been using our regular coffee maker (a Mr. Coffee), and then warming the milk in the microwave and using the milk frother afterward?

DYK This process makes a really good cup of coffee?

DYK So much that we have opted several times just to wait til we get home for coffee instead of hitting Starbucks while we're out?

DYK I thought you were, Elizabeth?

DYK I'll let you know if/when we get this game approved?

DYK I think we figured out what changes they want...hopefully?

DYK It's hard to know for sure, since the email they sent was so vague and lacked any real information?

DYK made a tasty dinner today -- salmon on the grill, asparagus on the grill and some creamed spinach


DYK I ate the entire creamed spinach myself, DH not found of it!


DYK have apple crisp in the oven now -- should be done in 10 minutes


DYK still on the quest for the perfect "crisp" recipe that is SB friendly.

DYK Hope you ate beforehand, Destiny?

DYK We're experiencing the same thing at all these football games?

DYK All they have are hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken fingers, nachos w/cheese dip and french fries?

DYK I have been taking grapes, mixed nuts or a trail mix and some cereal bars?

DYK I'm trying to find more snacks we can take so that we don't get so bored?

DYK And 2 weeks from now, we have to work in the concession stand?

DYK I know I'll come home smelling like yucky food?

DYK Ugh?

DYK Sounds good, Sue!

DYK Have you tried agave nectar instead of the brown sugar yet?

DYK I have wondered if it would work or make everything just too gooey?

DYK I do cheat sometimes and use the brown sugar Splenda?

DYK But I usually only make these kind of things for special occasions, so I figure that is better than just using the regular brown sugar?

DYK I don't even keep the regular in the house anymore?

DYK Btw, I've got a really good berry cobbler recipe that has peaches, blueberries and blackberries in it?

DYK You're welcome to the recipe, if you want it?

DYK I got it from a recent Cooking Light magazine?
