Give it about 6 months.....then it will be on par...

Aw, shucks. I was beginning to feel like everyone at work felt just the opposite. But everyone was pleased with the results and surprised at the progress. So I am a happy camper/DISer.

I am not sure what you do for work. Something techy. I just know that you have been frustrated with it lately.

 

[Cherinva]

Good Morning Everyone. The week is almost over.

 

[sshaw10060]

Today is my Friday. TGIT!

Let us get through DAP planning...and then we'll be back to "normal" over here...

Sometimes I don't know what I do either.

But one of the things I did today was get together plans to do some work on the roofs at the zoo. Not that I would ever go to the jobsite, but I get to draw the Hippo, Giraffe, Lion, Tiger, and Antelope Houses.

Okay, now you make whatever you do that sometimes even you don't knwo sound really cool!

Love a good zoo! And, yes, you should go to the jobsite, if it means visiting a good zoo.

I'd love to go to the jobsite. Especially the zoo or some of the historic buildings we work on, but my job is a desk job on the computer. The project managers are the ones that get to go out and see the sights.

 

[A.Mickey]

I just need it back if I go to Chicago in a couple weeks.

Make sure to let us know when you are in town!

I had to look up to see what pavlova is. Meringue - yum! Hopw it turns out well. Be sure there is no yolk with your egg whites.

 

[lindsey clare]

[klam_chowder]

Happy Monday folks!

Funny you should mention this Lyn cuz I am paranoid about there being fat on the beaters/bowl...always wash twice in piping hot soapy water and dry with paper towels yes my OCD extends beyond planning trips to the land of the talking mouse and ducks

pavlova? do i sense another Aussie/Kiwi around here?

quite far from it but I do love some of your dishes pavlova cuz it's nice and light after a big meal. My friends had never had it before and everyone thought it delish - taking home the leftovers I noticed you're newish to this thread Were you one of the lucky ones who met up with Pete & Walter on their stop in Sydney?

In this case, it is not OCD.
If the fat was not off the beaters and bowl, you would not high peaked egg whites and you would not get meringue. Period. Used to teach home economics and stil interested in food chemistry.

Two words in the English language that make me soooooo happy. Exponentially more when in unison.

I know there are lots of good books on the topic, but I can't find them on the library shelves today.

I really like Alton Brown's books for a fun and simple take on the complicated topic.

Agreed. DP doesn't like him. He thinks Alton is too much a comedian. I think its great. Life should be fun. Cooking should be fun. Science should be fun. I think Alton brings all of those together.

thanks for the welcome

i know what you mean about pav - it is nice and light and you can put whatever you want on it. the traditional pav is cream and fruit but i have seen chocolate ones - yum!

and yep i did get to meet Pete and Walter. my husband Tim organised the meet which i didn't go to but we were lucky enough to hang out with them on another day. it's funny cause i wasn't really into the DIS before that but now i am the board member obsessively checking posts and Tim isn't even a member
