I don't know how to make them, but a friends' mom used to make potato snowballs with moose meat inside them when I use to visit them in NB. They were so friggin good!

What is this P & B stuff you all are always getting? LOL I WANT TOO but suspect it is a Canadian thing. Got my e-gift card for walmart.com ordered two books both new releases but one was paperback. I've entered the contest for the gc every week on bidcrap for last couple years, so glad I finally won. I hadn't been signing up for many contests kind of got discouraged on them but not any more!

Thanks for the words Nikks and Amy couldn't give either of you rep.

I've found with the GMB on PS that if I just buy one I never get anything good but the more I buy at one time altogether the better my chances are of getting something good. SO always buy at least 2 to 4 at a time. Last time I bought 2 I got something that I didn't like I sold it for 999 and got 2 more and that is when I got the fancy chandelier and robot doll, which I wanted both of those so turned out good. Going to have to kick some of the people I don't know off my PS as it is slowing my game down and getting hiccups in it, feel bad doing that but been sending them names of the people that were looking for friends when they added me. lol figure put them altogether and they won't miss me.

Off to work on pogo and PS

As we've been promising throughout the week, the WWE official Search & Win site - MyWWEsearch.com - has been getting a major prize restocking! Earlier in the week we added a few new WWE trading card sections, but just last night we loaded in a BATCH of awesome new prizes, including Cena, ECW and CM Punk Beanies, 8 new WWE DVD's (including this classic Wrestlemania III disc, and an awesome Jake the Snake Roberts bio DVD), and some super rare 'Ringside Relic' and authentic (and certified) autographed items! But we've only scratched the surface: We still have a lot more prizes to load up, including official WWE apparel, vintage WWE magazines, swag and trading cards!

On top of that we are on the verge of announcing an awesome new feature on MyWWEsearch that will help you load up on more Swag Bucks! Stay tuned to this blog for that announcement!

But for now, check out the WWE Swag Store and see all the great new rewards!

TYVM, for the info. !!!!!!!!!!! Didnt see the blog for that.

Did the caller sound young, 20 something female with a heavy accent? I didn't get the name of the company either, but I do remember responding to a phone survey last week about asthma. Maybe they gave the grill away to someone else, which is why they didn't show at my place & why they didn't offer it to you?

I'm glad they didn't show up on my doorstep, the killer cat would not have let them in anyway, the dog would have led them to the silverware & held the door for them. .

uugh , they called the company was crystal egale, but hubby wasnt home, they said they want to come when he is there{ read they want to sell us something and want both to be there and hooked}. pushed it for next wednsday , ugh will have to say no and will blame it on hubby

What is this P & B stuff you all are always getting? LOL I WANT TOO but suspect it is a Canadian thing.

I think she meant P & G which is Procter and Gamble. They send out samples sometimes. I got some yesterday. Some shampoo and Gillette body wash that I'm giving to my brother. I imagine you can get samples in the US.

Seek, who did you send to me as a friend request on Facebook? I'm thinking it must be Aphena?

Are you feeling better, NS?

[RTlady]

twice baked? just bake em, cut in half lengthwise, scoop out the insides, mash like you would for mash potatoes stuff em back in their shells, top with paprika and bake til brown ontop.

mashed with cream cheese and chives? that's our new favorite, well before i got sick. get that recipe from phili. i think it's part milk cream chese, chives. easy.

omg I'd forgotten about twice baked - thanks!


if your really tired of potatoes, why not try sweet potoes? they make awesome stuffing, mashed, baked, home fries, ?

I love it but hubby eats very little veggies other than potatoes,
onions, peas - once or twice a month, he'll eat carrots & turnip!


[quote=babygonnermann;764137]
We love our potatos done cut into large cubes with a little bit of oil on them and montreal steak spice, cooked in the oven at 350 for 45 min.

ok... I think I like this one too - I'm going to have to write these
down for future dinners.


[quote=amycrows;764172]
Peel and dice potatoes into decent sizes. Place in a bowl and microwave for about 2.30min each potato.
Olive oil in a pan and heat. Add lots of chopped garlic and hot peppers (if you like em). Add the potatoes in the pan and sautee. At this point the potatoes are cooked you are just browning them. Add chopped coriander or parsley or both and salt and pepper to taste. You can also add paprika (I also add the spicy one).

ohhh that sounds really delicious; we eat spicy food - I'm liking
this one as well.

How about potato and lentil soup? I can send off a recipe if you want

yes please send recipe!!


[quote=haunish;764447]Ok I have never had Lobster yet in my life...and I so wanna try it..

I love lobster tail; sadly Sarnia does not have a Red Lobster
so I'm really missing 'em. Once in Maine, I ordered a whole
lobster but it was too messy and way too much work for me.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm lobster. got i can't wait for lobster season to open again. when the season is open i can look out my window and see the bobbers from the lobster pots.

lucky, lucky person you are.



[quote=Andit;764746]Talk about perfect timing, I'm making this potato dish for dinner right now.

Potato Paprikash
1 small onion, chopped
2 medium potatoes, cubed
1 sausage, sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika (I prefer hot)
1 cup water
Optional: Hot pepper, cored

Saute onion in the oil in a large pot.
Add paprika & stir well.
Add potatoes, sausage, hot pepper & water.
Heat on high until boiling, then reduce heat to simmer.
Ready when potatoes are tender, about 40 minutes.

ohhh this sounds very good as well... ugh should have a longer
piece of paper.


Thank you all for sharing your great potato recipes - sometimes
the obvious is just not so obvious lol - It gets boring cooking the
same things over and over so I'm always looking at something
new to try.

I don't know how to make them, but a friends' mom used to make potato snowballs with moose meat inside them when I use to visit them in NB. They were so friggin good!

ok now this sounds interesting - could you use other meat? Can you
get this recipe?


[quote=Racefan;764946]I think she meant P & G which is Procter and Gamble. They send out samples sometimes. I got some yesterday. Some shampoo and Gillette body wash that I'm giving to my brother. I imagine

I received my samples this week as well - Pantene shampoo &
conditioner and a "tiny" Crest Glide Floss; and all in such a huge box!



Ugh nothing on tv right now so have Idol on - might as well go and
visit my little Misty on PS - after all it's been a couple of hours lol


Have a good night everyone - catch you tomorrow!

[stardreamer7880]

I get things from P & G but mostly just coupons every few months they send something like samples of their steamer bags but just a small box of maybe air freshener being the biggest never gotten shampoo's or anything like that from them
