I just saw this amazing variety act on the television. Well, I say amazing, but I suppose I really mean completely mad and scary really! There was a chap on there who was juggling with cold steel knives he was very good at it but I still thought it was a huge risk. I could not imagine doing that. I own several knives and I would not like to juggle with them. I can juggle a little bit and although I am not that good, i woudl still be very wary of juggling these things. Not only are they small and hard to catch, they are unbelievably sharp.
I think that it is rather a silly thing to do! I have never been tepted to juggle my Buck knives or my Benchmade knives and I cannot understand why anyone would think it was a good idea. Juggling with fire is bad enough but I suppose people do that because there has been a long tradition of people doing it, not that I see that as a good reason! However, the knife thing is completely barmy in my opinion and I woudl not like to see anyone else trying to do it, however good at juggling they think they are – they might find they were juggling their fingers next!

350 for about 15-20 minutes. if you have a food thermometer USE IT. this will never lie and will ensure that your chicken is at the perfect temp. 160 is just right.

I agree about the food thermometer. It really is the only way to be sure that things are cooked to the proper temperature without overcooking them. I would think 20-30 minutes would be closer to the mark, though. It so depends on the thickness of the breast.
I keep reading that they are the same thing? Also what is Golden Syrup then?
Treacle is less refined than molasses, therefore it is darker in colour. Molasses is” Made from sugar cane. The roots of the sugar cane are deep and therefore able to receive a broad-spectrum of minerals & trace elements. Black strap molasses is the liquor after removal of the crystalised sugar.”
Golden syrup is more refined again and therefore lighter in colour and higher in sugar content. This is used for desserts etc.
Molasses has a strong flavour and is not suitable for desserts.
Something that sets the tone for the theme of the party ….. I’ve set little stuffed penguins on different levels (with “snow” under them) in the winter …… A wicker cornucopia with fruit, nuts & flowers in the Fall….. a small bale of hay, with a fiber-optic scarecrow for the Fall …. Look around your house and see what’s interesting! Large bowls filled with water, and you can float candles in it; Tall clear vases with glass pebbles or shiny Christmas balls …. A collection of small vases with only one big flower in each one …… Artificial flowers stuck into a cowboy boot or high heel …….

anything that has to do with the theme. i went to a masquerade party one time, and they had those little masks you stick up to your face in the center of the table. i went to a beach themed bat mitzvah and the centerpieces were little boats with the names of beaches on them with flowers in the center. i went to a car themed bar mitzvah and there were like thick cardboard things with expensive cars at the top. be creative!

I have a whole wheat pizza dough recipe that I love to use, it’s from The Ultimate Pizza by Pasquale Bruno. It’s an old book so not sure if it’s still in print. Anyhow, here’s the recipe:
Whole-Wheat Pizza Dough
Makes two 12-inch pizza shells or four 8-9 inch shells
1/2 cup warm water (105-115 degrees F)
1 1/4 ounce envelope (2 1/2 teaspoons ) active dry yeast
2 teaspoons honey
2 Tablespoons olive oil
2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup cool water
In a large bowl, combine the warm water, yeast and honey. Stir to dissolve the yeast. Let stand for 10 minutes or until it is foamy. Stir in the olive oil and salt.
Add the flours to the bowl and stir to combine. Add the cool water. Blend and mix until a dough is formed.
Turn the dough out of the bowl onto a work surface and knead for 6-8 minutes or until it is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning it twice to coat it with oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel. Let rise for 45 minutes.
Punch down the dough. Divide and shape it into two or four equal balls. Place the dough balls into a lightly floured freezer bags (or on a cookie sheet and cover tightly with plastic wrap) and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight. Remove the dough from the refrigerator at least 1 hour before baking.
My notes: I usually skip the whole last step of placing in a freezer bag, once I punch the dough down I cover it again in plastic wrap and stick the whole bowl in the fridge. This dough makes a crust that browns nicely. I usually parbake the crust for a few minutes in the oven before I put the toppings on, makes for a better crust that isn’t soggy.
Okay well my family wanted Dominos pizza for dinner and I couldn’t have any because i’m “vegan”. But I got breadsticks cause my mom told me to! You might think i’m kinda stupid but it looked like there was chesse on top but my mom said it was “herbs” and I was hungry (cause I haven’t eaten anything all day execpt coliflower and brocoli) I think it was chesse and I think there was butter too!!! What do you think, and I threw it all up by the way casue it made me sick afterwards (guess I won’t eat them anymore!!)
Next time go for Papa John’s…you can get a cheeseless pizza..their crust, pizza sauce, and even their garlic dipping sauce is vegan (I know I thought it had butter in it too)….
Also..don’t beat yourself up..it is truly impossible to be 100% vegan…you will probably kill bugs when u walk, there is a high chance that your car is not vegan, the computer u asked this question on isn’t “vegan”, and your cell phone harms the rain forest….we all should do the best we can..it’s about intent..and trying for the LEAST harm to animals and our planet…it is impossible to cause no harm…..be happy that you are doing something great for the earth and animals and realize that life is not about being perfect….just do more research on what to eat..and if u don’t know ask or look stuff up on the internet…
