cwcdesign, I may be wrong, but I think the first article I read about this said that it's a voluntary recall in that Cuisinart decided to do it, instead of the government forcing them to do the recall.

Thanks, BakerAunt, for posting. I called the recall line today and was told they were still on back order. When I asked when mine would arrive, I was told, "We don't know." So at least you received a more precise answer. I hope yours arrives before you move. I don't know why Cuisinart is not e-mailing me about this. I first learned about the recall via media, but Cuisinart sent me an e-mail the next day. I guess I had returned the registration form when it was originally purchased.

I've read that some people wouldn't wait for the new blade and bought new Cuisinart processors. I refuse to do that, but I may send my husband out to see what other brands are in the stores. Easter is, after all, going to arrive before June.

Aaron, Vermont Country Store used to sell them, but when I checked their site just now, I can't find them. Walmart online has them, if you can wait for delivery.

BakerAunt, you're doing better with your resolution than I. Congratulations!

BakerAunt, I have not heard about restaurants using preservatives on lettuce, but it would not surprise me. I'll ask this question the next time I go to a restaurant, which won't be for a while.

I searched online to see if garlic extract is used by restaurants, but didn't find an answer. Apparently there is garlic extract, and there are a few references that it's healthful. But I think solid garlic is also claimed as healthful.

thanks, BakerAunt, for the blade update. I hope mine arrives before Easter.

KIDPIZZA, thanks for the tomato soup recipe link. I'll probably try it during the summer, when I can access fresh tomatoes. I had a cup of this week's tomato soup with a grilled cheese for lunch. Believe me, the recipe looks much tastier.

luvpyrpom, I'm curious: Are you saying you canned your syrups? I don't can. I wonder if they can be frozen. The syrups would probably taste better with summer berries than the strawberries I used.

From Martha Stewart's website, I just made "Creamy Tomato Soup." I ended up adding some sugar to offset the bitterness of the tomatoes, and I added more half 'n half hoping it would also help. Aaron, I considered baking soda, but I wasn't sure how much to use. I will serve this soup to a guest, but I don't like adding sugar to savory food.

Aaron, my mother-in-law was an excellent cook of Mexican food. She always made her enchiladas with mole, and I wouldn't eat them. I never thought of making them with something else. I'm going to call around and see if anyone sells the Frontier Grill product. Thanks for the idea.

Carnitas is a good idea, too. I like them, but had never thought of freezing them.

RiversideLen, what a great idea -- berry sauce for ice cream! I'm going to buy ice cream and strawberries next time I go to grocery. I guess I should also buy yougurt so I have something healthful to eat with the sauce, too.

[Italiancook]

KIDPIZZA, thanks for your suggestions. I will try two of them, but not the crab cakes. I don't know where to buy imitation crab or even the real thing.

Mike, I would never have thought of making individual pot pies. I've never worked with puff pastry. Do you have to vent it like a top pie crust?

I don't like mole, so I'll not make enchiladas, Aaron, but lasagna is a good idea.

Thanks to all of you.

This morning, I made Paula Deen's "Easy Rolls." Recipe at Food Network.

For the first time in my life, I made strawberry syrup to go on strawberry pancakes.

Happy Birthday, BakerAunt!!!
