Nancy, you mentioned you
had a Food Saver. I want to get
one too. How do you use yours?
Lisa
Comment
I use the Food Saver a lot. I cook up recipes that are from
Weight Watcher magazine and Weight Watcher recipes that are
in their books. I also use other recipes that have calorie,
fat and fiber content to calculate the points. There are
always leftovers so I cut the recipe into how many servings
and food save each of the extra servings. If I can freeze it
that is the first choice. If not the Food Saver helps keep
everything fresh. The Food Saver has helped me keep the
serving sizes down and keep my weight down.
Nancy
Thank you for putting
your ice cream recipes online.
I have tried several of them and they are outstanding.
Wanda
Charles, I love the
e-cookbook
library too. Thank you for letting us know which recipes
you have tried and liked. Purchasing a lifetime
membership e-cookbooks is the best bargain I found on the
internet. I look monthly for new recipes. There
are 1000s of recipes and over 100 cookbooks. It is hard to
decide just what recipes to try. Thanks Charles, Keep your
favorite recipes coming.
Mary
Nancy - with regard to
WW and points. I was told you HAVE to eat all your points
for the program to work. I found if I didn't eat all my
points I didn't lose as much as I thought I should. Less is
not better. Keep up the good work and I wish I was as good
at doing the exercise. We have a pool here in our community
and sorry to say I don't use it. Maybe because of you and
your determination I will think differently about it.
Dotty in NJ
Comment
I eat all my points each day but have found that not all
points are the same. The only way I loose is to also watch
the carbs in what I eat. Something that has 6 points and 48
carbs is not as good (for me) as something that has 6 points
and 4 carbs. I can't eat a lot of carbs (over 40) a day and
loose but if I follow the plan and keep down the carbs I
loose every week. If I don't exercise the weight loss is
much slower. Having muscular dystrophy I can't do a lot of
exercise but find that swimming and Curves works for me.

I recently have started
the South Beach Diet. It is working well for me but I need
some different recipes.
I did find the site online
South Beach Diet
Kraft's
South Beach Diet (and they have some really great
recipes)
Does anyone know of other sites with South Beach Diet
recipes?

My husband loves to

part of the summer in a few weeks. Jim wants to build
several bird feeders but can't seem find different ones. The
only bird feeder he found was

Does any one else know of easy plans on how to build a

This is off topic but my
daughter wants to get a home equity
loan. I always pay cash for things and do not borrow
money. A while back you posted a link to information on a
home equity loan. Could you please repost it. I would like
to learn more about it. I think she needs to set up a budget
and stick to it rather than get a loan.

Amish friendship starter and bread . Jocelyne in Québec
AMISH FRIENDSHIP BREAD
SOURDOUGH STARTER (Do Not Refrigerate) :
1/2 tsp. active dry yeast
1 oz. warm water
1 tbsp. sugar
1 tbsp. vinegar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. flour
1 c. milk (room temperature)
Dissolve yeast in warm water. Place all ingredients into a
bowl and stir until mixture is creamy. Cover bowl with
plastic wrap and let stand in a warm place to ferment for 2
days. It will bubble and have a sour odor. After the second
day, you start your Friendship Bread. Should have 1 cup of
starter.
Take your 1 cup of starter: Day 1-2-3-4 stir each day. Day 5
add 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar and 1 cup milk. Stir well and
put in a larger container. Day 6-7-8-9 stir each day. Day 10
add 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar and 1 cup milk. Stir and put 1
cup of mixture in a container. (This is your starter for
next time you want bread.) Put a lid on the container. If
you have 2 friends to give a starter, take 1 cup each and
put in 2 other containers with lids and pass on to friends.
If you only take out 1 cup of starter, you have enough to
make 4 loaves of quick bread; if the 3 cups are taken out,
you have only 2 cups of starter left and that only makes 2
loaves of bread.
QUICK BREADS:
To this 2 cups of starter, add the following ingredients: 1
c. sugar 1/2 tsp. baking soda 1/4 tsp. salt 3 eggs 2 c.
flour 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder 2 tsp. cinnamon
Mix together well. Pour into 2 greased loaf pans. (I spray
with Pam, etc.) Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes.
Can add nuts or sprinkle top with cinnamon-sugar mixture.
I also add chopped apples, bananas, zucchini, rhubarb,
pumpkin (I add about 1/2 teaspoon cloves and 1/2 teaspoon
allspice), fruit cocktail (drained), pineapple (drained) or
raisins. I add 1 cup per loaf. The last time on my chopped
apple, I added 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg with the cinnamon. I add
the cinnamon as in the recipe above before I put the fruit
in.
If you have 4 cups of starter, double this recipe. (If you
take out 1 starter, you will have enough to double and have
4 loaves.)
WHITE BREAD:
Go through the procedure for 10 days. After taking out your
starter to keep, you have approximately 4 cups of batter
left. DO NOT ADD THE INGREDIENTS FOR QUICK BREADS.
This recipe is for 2 cups. If you have 4 cups, double this
recipe.
Approximately 2 c. starter
2 c. potatoes, mashed (we use instant potatoes & mix
according to instructions), add HOT
1 tsp. salt (if you put salt in the instant potatoes, do not
add this)
1/3 c. oil
Flour (enough to make a soft dough)
Knead until smooth, place in bowl, cover with waxed paper
and let rise. I set mine in my oven, which has a pilot
light, and let rise overnight. However, this is not
necessary, just let rise until double in bulk. Punch down
and let rise again. Shape into 2 loaves and place in bread
pan. Bake about 45 minutes at 350 degrees, or until golden
brown.
Nancy, a while back
there was information about a cooking thermometer in your
newsletter. Could you post where you got yours again?

very high in carbs. Can someone help me with a
low carb dessert recipe?

I love
orange sherbet ice cream. I am searching for my
recipe that uses orange pop and pineapple. It was an easy
recipe but I have lost it. I know it uses some sort of milk
but don't remember what kind.

I sent in my "thank you"
too soon. :) This is a big thank you to all you fellow
Nancylanders who replied to my posts about moving mint to a
new location and wanting a Macaroni and Shrimp salad. Thank
you so much!
Here is a recipe that is tops in our family; it came from
Taste of Home:
Picnic Baked Beans
3 cups dry navy beans (about 1-1/2 pounds)
4 quarts cold water, divided
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cup ketchup
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons molasses
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1/4 pound bacon, cooked and crumbled
Rinse beans; place in a Dutch oven with 2 quarts water.
Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 3 minutes.
Remove from the heat and let stand for 1 hour. Drain and
rinse. Return beans to Dutch oven with remaining water;
bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer for 1 hour or until
beans are tender. Drain, reserving cooking liquid. In the
Dutch oven or a 3-qt. baking dish, combine beans, 1 cup
cooking liquid, onion, ketchup, brown sugar, molasses, salt,
mustard and bacon; mix well. Cover and bake at 300° for 2 to
2-1/2 hours or until beans are as thick as desired. Stir
occasionally and add more of the reserved cooking liquid if
needed.
Yield: 16 servings.
