    Thanks, that looks good. What do I serve it with? Sorry, I'm a complete novice with tomatillos. See above. I've had a tomatillo type chutney a few times, seemed tomato-like to me with subtle differences. Honestly, I planted it because I told my 5 year old he could pick one vegetable plant...

    I rather like "giant wooden spatula thing they use at pizza joints," actually. I'm pretty sure I could market that. Also, I have about 30 tomatillos about ready to harvest. I planted the thing on a whim...what the hell am I going to do with all the tomatillos?

    Do you want to grill, or use a pan? Try this. It works well.

    Tonight I sauteed potatoes from my garden until they started getting crispy, added diced onion from my garden along with garlic from my garden, when it was done, topped it with coarsely chopped tomatoes and basil from the garden. Served it with lettuce, chives, tomatoes, and cucumbers from the...

    Big, open sore: ow. Poor girl! Hope she's feeling better. Huge, beautiful eyes and even a grin while being hurt? What a cutie. Hope you spoiled her rotten with ice cream and such.

    I don't like watching people turn left for a few hours. So, no. I don't like watching a boring game where the most exciting thing that happens is the catcher adjusting his jock. So, no. Also, if you're going to insult people, you might consider using whole words, and not replacing you with...

    Dang, that works so much better than the lemon juice I have been using. Now I feel silly.

    I think really strict bedtimes during summer months are silly. Some people need routine to function well, though. And my son didn't get off the get up at 6:30 AM routine all summer long. So, we didn't let him stay up very late all summer, simply because we knew he'd be up early. However, up...

    That's...something. My five year old toys with his junk sometimes, but it's certainly not masturbating. Is it really common for kids so young to start that? I'm not trying to be a dick, or call anything you're doing as a parent into question. I've just really never heard of this.

    I heard typing in all capital letters gets your point across more clearly, so you should seriously consider doing that.

    Some say omelet, some say frittata. I say screw it. It's eggs.

    New thing this year - my kids' buses have GPS locators, and you can track them live time. No more waiting for the bus outside in the cold. My phone gets pinged when the bus is three minutes away. Pretty sweet.

    Interesting. I find using salt and pepper before they are cooked screws up the flavour and texture of my eggs.

    That deserves a paddling. Keesh my ass? Keep the heat pretty low, expect to be stirring for quite a while, use your eyes, and you'll get the texture you want in the eggs. Once they are about done, add the cream, it prevents them from over cooking by lowering temperature and changing the...

    Try an omelet in the oven. It's pretty easy - fry up your extra ingredients in a pan, add your eggs, bake, serve. Can make quite a nice, fluffy texture.

    Omelets. Meh. I can do them, but I prefer scrambled eggs. For good scrambled eggs start with a cold sauce pan. Put a knob of butter in it, add the eggs, turn the heat on, stir like a crazy person. When they're almost cooked, add a bit of heavy cream, stir. Don't stop stirring the entire...

    I heard cocaine and hookers do wonders, too. Perhaps you shouldn't follow all advice given in this thread, though.

    No title. Nothing has changed. Can't antagonize the douche bags. I'm pretty sure you'd get a couple hundred dollars scrapping the car for waste metal.
