Just Read This I was just reading this thread (Ok, I know this has been here a couple of weeks, but it's so challenging to keep up!), and am totally LOL! Toooo funny! It takes a certain type of humor (quirky/off the wall) to make me laugh like that. I have something to tell you all -...

Bummer. Sounds like they're out of them now. Oh well. Who knows, maybe they'll come back one day.

Interesting. I heard someone (maybe on here) say they didn't like theirs, and that it never fit very well. It made me change my mind about wanting one.

How many does this serve? I'm looking for recipes, too. I have a show on Monday that may have quite a few people there (15+ I'm thinking). Thanks, g

The only thing about Joyce's Fine Cooking, is that the PC recipes aren't always exactly like the PC recipes or don't always have the all PC tools mentioned in the recipe as the official PC recipes do. At least that's what I've found in my limited experience with it.It's still a great resource...

Do you mean while they ate whatever it was that the host served?

Me, too!I need the same thing. I've heard the Profiterole Puffs are a good one to offer bc you use a lot of staple items from your kitchen. The only thing about this for me, though, is that I usually do just one recipe and this one is so easy and short that I don't think it's enough. g

Are you using the same type of rice that you used before? Brown rice usually calls to be cooked longer & (I think) with more water than white rice, but I don't like it cooked as long as the instructions say, so I reduce the time and water a little bit. Also, maybe a different brand cooks...

Cheryl, Thanks for a GREAT IDEA! I was just looking on the VIP site, and I just think most of their apparel is way too expensive. (I feel this way - kind of irritated - every time I go to their site.) Plus, they don't have a good selection, either. Anyway, don't mean to be a crab, but I...

Oh, and the cake can be baking in the oven when the guests arrive.

Do you have the Prof. Family Skillet or the Exec. 12" Skillet? You could make the Turtle Fudge Skillet Cake or the Pineapple Upside Down Cake in it. Both are awesome! If you don't want just a sweet/dessert item, you could have an easy dip w/chips, or something like that with it. If you...

This may seem obvious, but the Rectangular Baker is a perfect size for lasagna. Also, it's great for covered dish events when you may need to double or triple the size of a casserole, or a double batch of brownies. Sometimes I bake several pieces of chicken breast halves at one time to use in...

What is a PC Pool sheet? I've never heard of that.:confused:

Believe it or not, I've thought about this before, but have been too intimidated to do it. It really wasn't my own brainstorm, though. I heard that this is how Rachael Ray started out. :) How 'bout that?!! Would love to hear about how everything goes and your results. What day of the week...

Ooops! Well, I had the reply window open for hours, came back, and I see Eden attached her outline. Thanks! I've had difficulty talking too long, too. Maybe something similar would help keep me focused. Especially, as you said, since it keeps you on task.
