oh but are you sure you're not "trying to get away with something" when you get annoyed that a cashier decides to match every coupon with every item and read every coupon and read all the product packages before ringing you out. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

You know this is the number one reason I don't shop at the commissary much. They *DO* match up coupons to items, ime, even if you have 50 items and 50 coupons. I don't have the patience to stand there while the implied statement is that I am a thief. And it gives them too much time to play the one per purchase = one per transaction game. I have even less patience for that.

Quote from gatorcater :
You have a solid menu! In addition to green bean casserole, we make pea casserole that is essentially cooked peas, hard boiled eggs, cream of mushroom soup, onions & mushrooms with cheddar melted on top. drool

I make this Apple Pie [foodnetwork.com] for both Thanksgiving & Christmas since I discovered the recipe a few years ago...it is the BOMB! I even use a store bought crust because it is fairly labor intensive but worth every bite Smilie

Only thing you're missing is a festive cocktail Evil
That apple pie looks and sounds fabulous! I will be pretty much in charge of the dinner this year, so I need to start compiling recipes and ingredients. Speaking of ingredients, has a canned pumpkin q come out yet?

For those who wanted the carnitas recipe (and it turned out yummy today!), here it is:

Ingredients:
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon crumbled dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 (4 pound) boneless pork shoulder roast
2 bay leaves
2 cups chicken broth

Directions:
1. Mix together salt, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, coriander, and cinnamon in a bowl. Coat pork with the spice mixture. Place the bay leaves in the bottom of a slow cooker and place the pork on top. Pour the chicken broth around the sides of the pork, being careful not to rinse off the spice mixture.
2. Cover and cook on Low until the pork shreds easily with a fork, about 10 hours. Turn the meat after it has cooked for 5 hours. When the pork is tender, remove from slow cooker, and shred with two forks. Use cooking liquid as needed to moisten the meat.

And I made a snickerdoodle cake for hubby, and that, too, was delicious. I have now had my sugar quotient for the week!!

agreed. that's not a game i'm willing to play. ever.
each time a cashier brings that up, i firmly state it means per item purchased, not per transaction, they look dumbfounded/in headlights/unable to come up with a good counter argument, and then i counter with, "anyways, moving on..., it's the correct item and the correct coupon. anything else?" laugh out loud

translated, spin the wheel sister/mister and come up with your next half-baked objection if you must. so i'll get to swatting that. Cool

usually, they begrudgingly put it through. sometimes they dig in their heels and then i just politely ask for the item to removed from order, or on rare occassions, i just cancel entire order and walk away.

Sometimes I think it would be easier if they match everything. But if they are gonna do that, then put up a big sign so I know it ahead of time AND deduct the coupon right then. Scan item, scan coupon. And expect me to hand them one coupon at a time. Oh, wait, I nearly do that anyway.

Subject change -- candy and food
And who can forget the ever nasty divinity. I do not like it. I don't like eating it and I don't like making it.

How about a triple layer Sour Cream-Chocolate Cake with Peanut Butter Frosting and Chocolate-Peanut Butter Glaze. I came across the recipe and tried it. Oh yeah. It's good.

Ok Target experts I am trying to understand the GC mess and I have a few questions. First are the holiday oil 2 pack refills included in the GC deal? They were not with the Holiday display, but they are the purple sugar plum like the candles and sprays.

*snip*
All of these questions have been asked and answered many times in the deals thread. Did you not even bother to read the deals thread?

OMG all this candy sounds yum yum. The Holiday eating will definitely pack on a few pounds for me.

How do you make glazed carrotts?

I always make my sweet potatoes with brown sugar, white sugar, and butter mixed into the already cooked potatoes. I then spoon them into a baking dish and place a pineapple ring on it, then a marshmallow, and lastly a cherry. Bake them until they are nice and melted with the marshmallow. They are soooooooo yummy.

Yeah I don't like gretchens styles at all, I really thought michael had came along way and he did those flawless dresses so well. He just picked the wrong things to show trhe judges. Its sad though.

Quote from kallison423 :
Yeah, Gretchen was...interesting. Her clothes were really out there and old fashion hippy-ish. And wayyyy not flattering.

Michaels crying broke my heart. It was one of those deep "this will never stop hurting" kind of cries.

OMG I am sooooooo sorry..today's companies are the SUCKS at least MOST of them... I have managed an insurance company for yearssssssssssss and hate it.. most of the times people are so easy to get "rid" of and I am NOT one of those people that like firing people so I stepped down and decided to no longer do it..as I couldn't consciously keep taking food out of the kids of the people I constantly had to downsize with Frown Sad...on another note... I really hope that your company is just disorganized since the merger.. how is your dh business going? Sending you lots of hug
!
I used to feel secure at my work now I feel like anyone is expandable at this point.I just hope to remain valuable in there eyes, wishful thinking at this point. DH business is very slow and we don't have extra income for any advertising, it pretty much surviving from a couple loyale customers.

I need to start thinking about possibly going back to school but I have no idea what for?

Anyone have a Barney 101 for Rite Aid? I had given up 4 years ago when every time I went in the store on a Sunday, they were sold out of what was in the ad and the local store will NOT do rain checks.
I am now re-doing RA but I am NOT the one for a breakdown, in fact I could prob use it myself. This week the key is Alka-seltzer though, I know that much.

So what's on your menu for Thanksgiving?

I'm hoping my mom & dad come down so all (almost) my family will be here. My brother doesn't get to come down because of Army obligations but I'm very excited.

I plan on making/baking:

Turkey
Ham
Cornbread dressing
green bean casserole with Anaheim peppers
sweet potatoes
that nasty red stuff that comes in a can
giblet gravy
wheat rolls

pumpkin pie
pecan pie
cherry cheesecake

I'd like to make candy and stuff for christmas but I don't know how. Guess I better get to lookin for recipe's!
Mmmm, I hate to think of Tday dinner and not even have seen one BFad yet but DH does the boring old usuals. I am not the family cook, I am the family reheater/defroster, that is my chef DHs job, but one year I decided to take over Tday and have DH do nothing (cause his mom will do the dishes Teehee ) I went all fancy with orange glazed carrots and this and that and no one liked it Sadwalk So this years menu and every year since is:

Turkey stuffed with 3 oranges with holes poked in them.
Stove top vomit
Mashed pot
Candied Swt pots
corn or creamed corn
green beans with garlic & pine nuts
a can of cranberry for MIL
and every type of dinner roll and/or biscuit I have found

Two things I also do:

For breakfast/snack

A crescent star use 2 pks of crescents lay them out on a cookie sheet one overlaping the other in a star shape,or my case it looks more a wreath, then fill it with cream cheese and strawberry or raspberry preserves, put second layer of crescents making sure to pinch around the edges, bake for about 15 mins.

I also make a jello surprise, its a can of chunky cranberry can of crushed pineapple, chopped walnuts,2 boxes of jello raspberry and or cranberry,follow directions on box plus add canned pineapple and cranberries, put it in a circle jello mold. Then u make a filling for center out of cream cheese and whipped cream and chopped walnuts.
One jello is chilled and set put it ojn a serving platter and fill the center with the filling.chill again.
