      Please try, I've tried a couple of times with no reply, but I had email delivery problems with her in the past as well.

        Sharing the workload sounds good to me.

        Is anyone still in contact with Zen? I think she has all the recipes from the old BC in a file, if I can get them I can try to write something to find and add the ones others didn't upload when we first came up.

          My experience with biscuits is somewhat limited, but I think if they're brushed with butter they need to be eaten fairly quickly, otherwise they get soggy when reheated.

            No, that count only includes the ones that have been posted in the recipes category. I'm not sure if it is even possible to find much less count and index all the recipes that are buried in other threads.

              But if I ask a similar question in a few weeks, would you get it right again?

                The search feature here needs a lot of work, especially for recipes. That's my project for this fall, once I learn a bit more about writing WordPress plugins. Then I'll probably have to go through them all (over 2400 of them) and recode them, adding search terms.

                I think we've got DvdLee's biscuits recipe (possibly more than one of them from him), but if so it's probably in the 'saved threads from the old BC site' category. There may be a biscuits recipe from Grizzlybiscuits somewhere, too.

                  We had some lovely strawberries from a local source and then had BLT's and tomato /salami sandwiches for supper.

                      I remember when Krispy Kreme stock debuted on the NYSE, they parked a food truck outside the NYSE building and gave them away all day.

                      There's a Krispy Kreme in Lincoln, but I've never been there. I find their donuts are usually a little too greasy and unless you get them when they're hot, too sticky-sweet.

                        I've seen other recipes, including several bread recipes, where you put the oil in last, I'm not sure exactly what that accomplishes. Probably has something to do with not saturating the flour.

                          I didn't think it was possible to kill chives. My mother poured the foundation for her rebuilt garage over her chives garden, and they came up at the edge of the garage 2 years later!

                            Is getting your food tip published in Cooks Illustrated the foodie equivalent of getting your joke published in Readers Digest? πŸ™‚

                              Serving them in the rings would likely get you chopped on Chopped. πŸ™‚

                                It'd be interesting with ratatouille. I didn't plant any eggplants or zucchini, but I did put in 16 tomato plants a week ago, though I had to replace 4 of them yesterday.

                                  We had macaroni and cheese for supper, along with the last of the broccoli we got at the farmer's market on Sunday.
