Go ahead try it, I'll wait. Cool eh? Just a note to anyone making my recipes. If you have taken pictures of them, please feel free to post them right away. I love seeing what others come up with and want them all posted. Also, I am VERY slow to return Zmails. I'm sorry, but that's just how I roll. I will of course answer you if you have questions, but it might take a day.

I haven't been pain free in over 10 years. But... I do get to park really close to the doors at Walmart :) UPDATE: I had my surgery! Oh thank God I can walk and sit and do so many things again. I finally have life to live! ____________________________________________________ My star system.... 5* = Awesome! Totally rocked our socks! 4* = Very good, but needs 'something'. 3* = We ate it, tried it anyways. 2* = Yuck. We ordered pizza instead. 1* = Terrible food. Terrible instructions. Cat tried to bury it. I try not give anything below 3 stars. I might just leave a comment instead. If it really aggravated me, then I will definitely leave a lower star rating. I will always explain in my review how it went over. ____________________________________________________ ~*~ Cooking Tag Games ~*~ <img
