I just thought that the fresh ones might go gooey being so long in the CP. I have dried my own fresh ones in the past but I didn't have any. -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/shop/ |

My beard has been white since I was a young man. It's most peculiar! Combine this with my asymmetrical eyelids, which gives me a squinting look, and the result is more Gabby Hayes than Sean Connery. That's the way the cookie crumbles. ;) > Mmmm hmmm... |

Who knows, you may show me the error of my ways .. ;-) As I said originally, the large amount of beef is what appealed to me in the first place. I often add more than what a recipe calls for, especially with red pasta sauce. I was just thinking that if your's was a bit dry (and I had that problem once), maybe just cooking the pasta first might eliminate that. I'm sure the dry pasta sucked up a lot of the moisture. I'll talk to you again next time I make lasagna. Right now though, I'm working on eliminating freezer things. Hurricane season here is coming up very soon. It's best to not store much cold food in case a storm takes out electricity for several days. No problem if you have a backup generator but I don't. Another good thing to have on hand during the prime hurricane season is at least $100 in cash, small bills. In my area, we lost all electricity for 3 days. Some of the stores opened up with generators but it was cash only as their credit/debit machines didn't work. I learned my lesson that time. I had plenty of money in the bank but no cash and I couldn't buy anything. When I goto my bank tomorrow morning, I'm getting $100 in one dollar bills. They come wrapped up (with a band around them) in $50 increments. :-D G. |

Hmmm ok that is something to think on, but I repeat, D said it wasn't at all dry, so not sure what difference it would make. As I said, I won't be making any for a while, because there are 3 huge portions in the freezer. > I'll talk to you again next time I make lasagna. Yes, please do.

We don't suffer with that but yes, we do have a gennie. D is a prepper so we are always well prepared for just about anything :) Might be something you could save for? I like the idea I have full freezers and store 'just in case'. And that doesn't mean, in case the world falls in .. but it could be that we are sick and can't get out, or an unusually high bill comes in and we don't have to dip into savings ... oh all kinds of things:)) Fill in your reasons here ... ;-) > Another good thing to have on hand during the prime hurricane season > is at least $100 in cash, small bills.

There's only so much you can eat in the couple of days you can keep things cold in a cooler. > Another good thing to have on hand during the prime hurricane season > is at least $100 in cash, small bills.

Cash was king. > When I goto my bank tomorrow morning, I'm getting $100 in one dollar > bills.

I try to carry at least $20 in my wallet but even when I do, it goes way down in just one purchase. I mostly buy with my debit card. If I need cash back, I'll get some but my main store doesn't even offer that. |

I will opt for a bit only if I have very little in my wallet. I hate to go into someplace and the bill is so low and I have to use a debit card. If a bill is under $10, I'd rather pay in cash. |

I carried more cash than that when I was ten years old... I always had a job, even as a kid and I was paid in cash so I always carried cash. As an adult I don't leave home without a few hundred bucks in my wallet, and I keep way more cash at home. Many a time I've saved substantially by being able to pay cash at the moment. Call a plumber, electrician, a guy to take down a tree, or any workmen, they don't take plastic and if you pay by check you pay full price, I ask how much for cash and most will knock off 20% or more, and not charge sales tax... they'd much rather leave with $200 in green money than with a check for $250. |

It makes much more sense to pay the fee and get out the cash you will need. When travelling, I take some local currency and then use my debit card at a bank. I get a better exchange rate but I have to pay an access fee. I will withdraw the maximum so that don't have to go back and pay that fee again. |

If a bill is under $10, I'd rather pay in cash. For small purchases like gasolene I generally pay with cash, for large purchases and on line purchases I use a credit card, for items where the warranty is critical, like TVs, PCs, appliances I use my AMEX... AMEX doubles the warranty period, and they are very good at withholding payment to the seller when you have a dispute. I don't own a debit card, can't be bothered with all the bookkeepping, I don't see any advantage to a debit card anyway. I've never used an ATM either, I see no need, just another thing needs accounting. If at my age I don't know how much cash I'll need for say a week then I need to sign myself into an HOA Asylum/Gated Community where I'll be taken care of. |
