RETIRED: Target chit chat

ok, so far I have invited you, Dazzledby5, and longtimelurker. Did you get it? Anybody else? Feel free to PM me. I set it up to be by invite so it was private.

Why yes, yes, I do. I have been experimenting with pie crust recipes for years trying to up with one that always comes out nice and tastes good. So the crust recipe is mine, if you have one you love, use it. It makes two crusts -- either a top and bottom or two bottoms.

Pie Crust:
1 egg
1 tbs. vinegar
1 cup butter -- no I don't mean margarine.
2 cups flour -- all purpose is fine, it doesn't really matter

I use a pastry cutter to blend, but I think you can do it in the food processor (pulse) too. Lots of flour to roll it out. Roll it fairly thin -- 1/4 - 3/8" ish. When it's ready to go, roll it up on your rolling pin, move it over your pie pan, and gently unroll it right into the pan. Pinch your edges, trim off excess.

I do lightly spray the pie pan with non-stick spray. Use the tip of a sharp knife or a fork to poke a few small holes in the sides and bottom. (It keeps it from puffing up) It still might puff a little but will deflate as it cools.

Bake for about 15 minutes at 350 until its lightly golden brown.

While your pudding is cooking - Slice bananas and completely cover the bottom working from a circle around the outside in toward the center. Do one row up the side crust.

Use one large box of Banana Cook pudding for each pie. I use Jello Brand and I do NOT use instant. I do cook it in the microwave. Two large boxes took about 15 minutes today.

Fill your pie shells and immediately cover the tops -- touching the pudding -- with plastic wrap. This keeps it from getting that pudding film scum on top. Chill.

Though SD groups can be made private and only members can post, you do realize that anyone can still read the posts, right? Just letting you know so you are aware, since I saw your rule "Personal information, such as someones weight, that is discussed in here, stays in here."

No, I didn't realize that. What the hell is the point of them being able to by invite and member only then?

I'd like an invite. Pretty please!
!

Omg I wanna make a pie now! Wth were suppose to wanna loose weight not gain more!

Back when SD upgraded the board software and the groups were added, they had a lot of people wanting to make private deal groups. They said that will not happen here, everything is for anyone to read. They even warned us about posting secret deals only in groups, rather than a general thread. Thought I'd let you know before everyone typed up a personal bio with all their details.

I can see their point, but the same thing could be accomplished by them being accessible by mods but not everybody.

Ok, every body, I guess you'd better pm your credit card numbers instead of posting in the group!

(DISCLAIMER: For those with no sense of humor, that is a joke, there are no credit cards involved. We are just supporting each other while we diet.)

Oh, and if you ask for an invite and don't get it in a reasonable amount of time -- please pm me. I might have missed the post. At some point tonight I have to put this keyboard down and eat ribs and PIE.

Next time they call be Christine and see what they want. OR

Tell them to contact you in writing regarding whatever it is they want. OR

Scream, yell, throw a fit and go off in a while tangent about that crazy bitch Christine and how she is dead and they will NEVER find the body. OR

Go into the Dental office in person and deal, DEMAND to see the actual dentist owner of the business and if they continue to call you after that, every time you get interrupted by a call he gets interrupted by a visit. Be polite, don't swear, but absolutely don't be quiet or meek.

I agree. And if all else fails, hire the waffletwat bunny to handle it for you .

bank of america calls DH daily, up to six times a day. I started to intercept those calls a couple of weeks ago. They are so rude. This woman called and DEMANDED to speak to him. I told her no over and over and she refused to quit calling. She said she wanted to speak to the head of household. I told her bitch I am the head of this household. I am the head of the finances, the bedtimes, and the fun times.

call them every 20 minutes for the next day and ask for someone named Anna.

My DD and I Bones! She's always had a fascination with the dead body part. I think (hope) she's going to become a doctor!

So far I'd have to say...I am LOVING your diet
