the name itself sounds rather enticing. I've never been to Amish country (Pennsylvania, right?) but my folks went years ago. My mom brought back all kinds of kitschy things (knickknacks galore), a bunch of apple recipes (where I learned that baked apples with pork is yummy) and Pecan Rolls/Logs ... those were good.

sigh ... I'm off to make peanut butter toast now.
Its like a peanut butter caramel almost.

You can order it here.....its incredible as is their other stuff.

It's next to impossible to get anything but "peaches and cream" (bicolour corn) corn here. I'd love to get some of the old style yellow corn. Mmmm.

Damn you all ... now I'm really hungry.

All I can find at supermarkets around here (Georgia) is Silver Queen, a very sweet corn. I like the field corn much better.

I've had apple butter .. which is great.

I'll have to wait until we (if we) make it there. Paying the customs and duty on it makes mail order from the US a pain in the butt.
If I get down that way, I'll get you some. :)

blasphemy! Silver queen is da bomb!

Fry it....like veggie candy, yum.

Fried corn?? mmmmmmmmmmmmm

yes. It's like creamed corn in consistency, but better. Silver queen has so much sugar it in, it almost caramelizes in the pan.

Not when you grew up on field corn, it's not. But I have learned to like it, just not as much as I like corn that's not so sweet. Besides, shouldn't you be eating maize?

those were the Mexicans, darling. ;)

I've had field corn, but don't really like it that much. It's tough.

One of my favorites for Silver Queen.

Maize is Mexican? Learn something new every day.
 
holy crap, it's hot! why can't the dog just walk around the basement for half an hour? we are *not* going out until the sun sets ...
 
I feel so lonely without her. Even though we talked a short while ago it wasn't long enough. I got a feeling it never will be enough until...

Aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrgh!!!! No wonder I wasn't getting votes or comments on my latest two, except in my mailbox. I somehow had the voting and public comments turned off! Aaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrgh!!! And there's already over a thousand views on each. Those people are not coming back. :(
 
I hope to discover an Engineer or a Process Tech that is easier to work with than they are to just choke the shit out of and get the job done right the first time instead of having them analyze the data 20 dozen times to ultimately get it back to where I had it.

You know, that makes a hell of a lot of sense. I mean, electricity doesn't like to flow up hill, does it? Yeah.....now that I think about it....

I'm surprised more state institutions aren't catching on to that :rolleyes:

I have a degree in Electrical Engineering but i couldn't advertise it with out the land surveying.... :rolleyes:

Oh and to add insult to injury, an Electrical Engineer can design buildings and bridges.... They lump all Engineers into one do it all group.....

Now I work with and for Petroleum Engineers.... Now there's a laugh for ya.... 99% of the oil field processes and equipment were designed and built by people with less than a sixth grade education.... Common sense had a place at one time but now educated idiots rule.....

I'm glad I'm retiring soon.... :cool:
